Bike trip to ireland. Help please.

[M3yer]

Hi new to all this. Where going to ireland this year on the ferry from holyhead. My gsxr 750 has a gp race can so isn't road legal. I am wondering if the bikes get checked to be alowed on the ferry or into Ireland? Cheers

Someone I know might have taken a bike to Ireland from Holyhead under slightly non legal circumstances once.

Zero checks were made on that occasion.

I live in Northern ireland and on the border to the republic. I cant speak for customs or any kind of check points youll be at when entering the country but youll be fine with a noisy can here, they arent very strict on them/tinted visors ect unless you give the police/garda a reason, just dont rev the balls of it everywhere and youll be fine haha !

enjoy your trip

Stop when you get to Holyhead or you will flood the engine!

Yeah I will just be a little easier on the throttle thanks for the replies.

If anyone who has been over on ferry can comment on if they do checks. Thanks

we went over years ago and our mate had a set of scorpion cans on his tlr another mate on his cbr600 with arrow can and another mate on his gsxr with a scorpion pipe


no fucks were given

that was about 20 years ago though
