It's quite stupid and dangerous to use a motorcycle as a towing and towed vehicle. For that reason it is illegal in the Land of Beer and I do believe this is a EU regulation.
Funny story, my uncle's Jawa wouldn't start and he was lazy to push start it, so he used a rope and tied it to my aunt's car, she then tried to ''tow-start'' the bike. Long story short, she was draggin the bike without my uncle on it.
On a different note, I can't find any UK regulation on this matter, therefore it is legal to do so. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

It will be fine, unless you have an accident.
Less likely to happen if the tower and towed are not eejits.
one in ten green lane ride outs someone gets a tow back to a road/garage/meet point
Legal? Dunno. |

Regardless of legalities, make sure to video it for youtube.
The video title for upload would be something like 'man towing motorbike gets tow rope caught in chain'. ____________________

someone on bcf had a little motorbike that they towed (or it might have been sidecar?) an either smaller trials bike.
That was one of the coolest things that I had seen.
Can't find the pic now though. |

Towing a trailer is a completely different thing, though. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ
