Typical ...
They fail to point out that NEVER have amendments to construction & use legislation been retrospective.
You can't draft a statutory instrument like that.
But that doesn't make good copydoes it????
You know, the whole story.........

If any other minority was picked on like this.........................................

May I suggest that you plead freedom of expression under the human rights act as the noise of a motorcycle is a cultural heritage thing

Last year I was pulled (not speeding) and the first words were "We ARE PULLING ALL BIKES TODAY".

Instead of BIKES insert Gipsy Asian Sikh and imagine the reaction.

I did explain that the nice officer could not make such a statement to any other road user

More MCN scaremongering?? They have been wrong before.

Sod em, even if they do bring some crazy pointless legislation will it really stop people running thier race zorts on the road? I doubt it. Certainly won't stop me, i've been running stupidly loud race cans since the beginning of time.
When it comes to a Duke it's abligitory to fit termis anyway!!
