    Not sticking to 70k as I think on the open road it is far too dangerous and I'm not into big trucks sitting on my arse!!!!
    Only have to have it on for a short time anyway, will induce me to get restricted asap!!!
    You have to wonder at the common sense of requiring inexperienced riders to hang around at 70km/h while large trucks and cars pass them at a speed differential of 30km/hr, dont you?

    I mean, if you dont have the riding technique to control a bike at 100km/hr, what makes you think their riding technique will be any more useful at 70 km/hr?

    not at all. was with my friend and his ninja. and we were both going good.

    he told me it was just a warrant and rego check. but he forgot all about that when he saw the L on my licence...even though ive had that 6L for 2 years...

    it was a full on crack down on motorists that day. there were so many cop cars i lost count. but they didnt seem to even notice bikes. just the biker cop that was interested. saw him pulling over a ducati aswell when i was heading back.

    Yes, sorry about that.

    Not sure, but I assume riding on the wrong class of license == breaching license conditions? Or do you mean riding a bike with just a car license?

    Wrong way around, 25 demerits for no L plate, 35 demerits for any other breach of restricted conditions, which include going above 70km/h.

    I happily have my 25 points

    As for riding on the wrong class of license, there would be no demerit points. just $400 for riding with no current license. Just asked a police friend.

    correct. riding with just a car license (ie/ same fine as a learners but not extra fines for ea breach for cc's, pillions, after hours, l-plate, over 70kms etcetc)

    seems u better off doing it on a car license, in fact you even lose your license on learners!

    ie/ on learners
    ((100km= $100+35 points, +pillion $100+35 points, +more than 250cc =$100+35 points)(+ i assume $100+25 points for no L-plate on a 600) =total $400+130 points) =lost license!

    ad another $100+points if it's at midnight!

    on full car license = $400 + no points

    i wonder which most people would prefer?
