Not illegal.

There is no law that says you even need a certificate, so why waste your £22.50.

I'll do you a certificate for £20 with free P&P if you're that bothered..

As its already been said you dont have to technicaly have a certificate. But im bored so lets go through what could possibly happen in a worst case scenario if you were to use a fake one.

So lets say you were in an accident and the insurance company are going through your doccuments looking for a way to get out of paying £100000 for the ferrari you just wrote off.

So They find a restriction document that says you live in liverpool yet the bike was restricted all the way down in sussex. That seems a bit strange mr insurance man says. So he gives the garage a ring to find out more who then deny all knowlege of it .... Thus leaving you up shit creak without a paddle.
The insurance company refuse to pay out and contact the police. Then the plod knock on your door arrest you for riding an uninsured and unlicenced vehicle and using a fraudulent document.
You loose your licence get a massive fine. You now have to pay to get your bike back as its been used as evidence.

So now thats all over with you sit back in your house thinking fuck me ill never do that again when there is a knock on the door. It seems the ferrari owner is the biggest drug dealer in the area who is a bit pissed not to have his beloved ferrari fixed. He orders his 2 8ft tall henchmen to pin you down while he breaks you knees with a bat and and then beats you on the head with a wooden spoon and informs you your now his new drug mule till the dept is repayed.

I did say worst case scenario




So get your bike restricted via the washer in exhaust method then take a spanner and when you get it home whip out the washer

Then keep the spanner and washer with you and if you are unfortunate enough to be in an accident drag you bloody smashed body over to the manggled remains of the bike whip whats left of the exhaust off and jam the washer back in. PLEASE NOTE this must be done while shouting "move along nothing to see here" so as not to arouse suspicion.

I'd be more worried about sending all the details of my bike to some dodgy geezer who's selling fake cert's on ebay than being caught without one in the first place. If I had to have one

re wording of the advert.
"hi i am a bike thief.
i am looking for bikes to steal.
could you send me all the details of your bike+name and address so its easy for me to find them.
please enclose £20 admin charge incase your bike isnt worth stealing.
i will send you a useless piece of paper.
thanks.

has to do with restriction certificates?

So they cant void your policy and have you prosecuted if the details are incorrect or you have supplied fraudulent docs ?? learn something new everyday

They won't ask for docs, as insurance is taken upon a contract of utmost good faith. Do they ask you for proof of your age/garage/address?

Mine asked for a copy of my Licence which contains address and D.O.B

Also after a mate binned up i helped him copy all his documents as the insurance company wanted them before pursueing the claim had to send a copy of his Valid Licence & MOT test certificate and his insurance certificate and im presuming if he was on restriction they would of asked for some sort of proof or restriction eg garage contact details.
