Have come clean with the pit bike / Pit bike Knee down Vids

And now feel it looks really shit and gay! Sad

I went out on my pit bike 3 days in a row last week, And got pulled by the police 4 times.
The 4th Time I was pulled up it was by Traffic Police. And I ended up with a £30 fine and a VRN for my Reg plate and a few other bits and pieces.

So I've had to take off the nice little Number plate, And fit a "legal" one on the bike.
Although the one I've fitted is not road legal. It is 1" x 1" too small. A full size road legal bike plate simply will not fit on the bike anywhere. Laughing

Here it is at the moment.

Its mounted to the rear subframe, Not the swing arm. So the swinger moves up and is very close to the chain. If I jump down on the pegs hard enough. I think the chain might rub the bottom of the plate. But the odds on the suspension dropping that far are very low.

So until I can come up with something, It'll have to do. Sad

I've been thinking about getting a set up like on the Gilera Ice.

Like this but without the gay mudguard bit, And just the plate mounted to it.

The only reason I'm fixing it up so it looks legal is because the Traffic cop could of quite easily taken me to court for its faults the day he pulled me.

The frame doesn't even have any frame numbers on it! The blank, Yet to be stamped VIN plates are sat in my tool box still. Laughing

I can't look at anything but the pic of the TL Drooling

You jammy sod, I will have one but I refuse to sell my beloved R6 to buy one so I will carry on with my greedy head and save to buy one to sit alongside my current beauty Laughing

Does it alot of justice.

Well I know track bike tyres shread/bubble/blister/rip. My TLR tyres have started to do it.

But thats a 130bhp, 200kg bike.

Just a bit strange how the pit bike tyres have ripped on the edges. Looks cool though. Laughing

as long as your plate has legal font then size of the plate wasnt an issue.. or thats what I was told..

you'll still get fined for it because of its location no matter how much you try and justify it.. I got fined with a completely legal plate which was angled upwards slightly to stop it getting munched by my knobblies when going off road.. didnt wash and I got a £30 fine.. my mate got the same even though his was fitted to a tail light/numberplate unit..

cant win with em mate..

even if you had the numberplate stuck to your back they would do you because its not on the bike Rolling Eyes

ive been threatened with a fine for my reg plate being to "skyward" on my Wr450, luckily i could move it there and then, so i got away with it.

but tbh, it was only possible to read from a 747.

I see ya on ya pitbike today at ebbsfleet, was gonna say hi but was just determined to get me knee down and my bro was at it aswell.

I was on the red/white CBR and he was on the 57 black r6. I got my knee down after about 15 mins Cool

then couldn't do it again. Bro managed to aswell but got his toe down more than anything, might be the big feet Razz

LoL. I was racing with some bloke on a ZX6 (I think it was). I was catching up with him, Ready to overtake on the top roundabout and a meat wagon pulled on just after us. Laughing

Cant say I saw you, Were you standing over on the pavement by the railings?
Or just on the left as you pull into the layby?

Lol that bloke on the ZX6 was bad luck, I went with him up to the top roundabout as a police car when the otherside of the carriageway, we both looked at eachother like, nothing to see here is there Cool

Well we would of looked a right pair, I was in full red berik leathers, standing on that lil island most the time or filming, I look about 12 if that helps.

Ah I'll try that next time then, was so annoying getting really close but that's our first time at roundabout surfing Razz

. I'll let him know about his toes but they are big Shocked
