Could be stolen?

[CookMySock]

Call the police, and get then to come and have a chat. At the very least they should be spoken to about riding a non-registered bike on the road.

@All, Cmon people, how would you feel if some dickwad potted you for riding a non-legal bike on the road? Fucked off, thats what. No rego, no wof, wheelie, thats over a grand in fines and some serious demerits.

By all means take a photo and alert the fuzz to suspicious stuff, but live-and-let-live on the street antics please - we all do it.

Piss off! No we dont ALL do it! It's idiots like that pictured that give us all a bad name. Hooning around suburban streets on a trail bike with NO gear almost always = stolen bike! You wouldn't be saying live and let live if it was YOUR bike they had pinched and were thrashing around the streets...Dickwad! If I test my track bike around the industrial area, wearing all the gear, and get busted I'd say fair cop but it wouldn't be anyone dobbing me in.

Sadly it may well be stolen .....and the guy on the bikes probably stoned on ..P..as for the cap he probably thinks it is a helmet..that is untill he comes off and grinds his head on the tarseal a bit....then he can come off the unemployment benefit and go on a sickness benefit...what a ltosser...and yes i have tested my bike down the street ..but always wear the right gear
a ticket i can handle ..Death ..maybe not so much.........

but that's only if he survies or doesn't receive brain damage....whether it's stolen or not at his age (he looks over 35) he should know better!!!! Hope his darling children aren't watching. One should lead by example.

[laserracer]

Mate,
If the local bobby pulled me over for a non rego'd or Wofed Race bike on the road, I would have some very serious explaining to do to all the sponsors as to why we got the bike impounded.
That aside, if some other person in the hood got their hands on it, i would hope to hell the local bobby would be onto it ASAP, as in the wrong hands we would have a fatality.... Remembering it is deceptively fast!!!!
And no speedo to boot.

Yes, I have rapped around on non road legal bikes on the road.... But that was in the days when they didn't go missing every ten minutes. (and not going to say i have actually ridden a race bike on the open road in a public forum

If the character in the photo can prove legal ownership of the bike to the local bobby, then there is no worries is there?? Apart from the chat about the lid, rego, wof etc etc.....

Note: I use my personal situation as an example, and realise this bike may actually be a hack... BUT it IS Some body's bike. Not necessarily the guy who's riding it.... Could be a guy staying with him for the holidays... But I'm sure they can explain if legit.

A simple 800m slow ride from my place to the bush (complete gear) along the road cost me $200 for no rego, when I asked for a warning instead he informed me of the raftt of other fines he could give me, so i took the fine and pushed my bike home. Bad day.

Just came back from a nice little walk around the block, I got a rough idea where the young fellas that are riding the little Honda live now so will keep an ever watchfull eye on them, they were out side a house which the kids that live there are known for burglarys.

It was the first place we went to when my bike got flogged.

[Genie]

Do you live in a dodgy neightbourhood?
Or, is it just puffed up young adult males with to much time and energy on their hands, so for kicks they turn to petty crime.
nice boys really just up to a bit of mischief!
unemployed, drugged up and out of alcohol?

[CookMySock]

Bah, theres nothing wrong with a quick blat down the road on your own dirtbike. Doesn't affect anyone. Lighten up.

Well Steve, there isn't really..... You are right. Doesn't really hurt anybody... BUT Point is, and I trust Pornstar is reading this, IF per sae I owned a $4000 KTM as an example, and went for a little ride down the street, and popped a mono through 3 gears and the Police man pulled me up and gave me a bit of a talking to I would be a little annoyed... Yes.

However, if same copper saw somebody hooning around on a KTM just like I owned, and i wasn't riding it... and though quickbuck is just doing some stunts up and down the street, i will leave him to it... Well I would be VERY upset.

See, the law works both ways.

Pornstar, yup, cost you $200, but wouldn't you be glad if Mr Policeman noticed if the person riding the bike wasn't you, and brought it back for you??

For what it's worh, the KTM 250SX scares the living daylights out of me! One of the bikes I ALWAYS put my lid on before doing stunts up and down the street (and it is actually in the system too).

There are two things here. Nicked bikes and nicked riders. I fully agree about the nicked bikes thing and being vigilant about that. No problems.

But when people are having fun with their own stuff, don't pot them to the fuzz. Remember when you were young. Leave them alone. Better still, go give them the thumbs up and have a j with them.
