    I'm not to keen on a 2 strokes as the people I've spoken to who've owned one don't suggest them as commuters. Though there may be those who have differing oppinions and I would deffinately like to hear from them on the matter.
    How long you been riding? etc what license u on? could be better off just waiting man, no point lining the pockets of the govt

    Please surrender your licence at the nearest police station.

    What could I say? those 400 stickers are fake? my licence hasn't been updated yet? they type that into the system as soon as you pass your licence tests and I don't think cops are that gullible, they haven't been anything but paranoid in my experience, easily checkable shit that is.

    You're dreamin' spaz.
    I've been pulled over twice this year for licence and rego checks on my immaculate thunderbird. No reason - just cruising.

    You get a copper on a bad hair day and they'll probably yellow sticker the bike too.

    Hot up a 250 and be patient.

    I got pulled over for a rego check and I hadto convince the copper that it was a 250.

    Go figure, If you real keen do what I'm doing - I'm hunting down a 400H1 (cheap one!) motor to slap in my 250c frame.

    But wasnt that zxr you had a pos? a zxr will keep you happy - I am no where near the bikes limits and probably never will see them, maybe ride better rather than faster eh?

    really? now that's an answer I was looking for, probability factored into it.

    that's a damn shame as some twit ran up my arse while I was sitting at the lights on my only bike. I'm not to keen on sticking around on a 2slow.

    cheers mate

    The subtle point I'm trying to make is this.

    if you get stopped, and you're trying to hide the fact that you're riding outside the conditions of your licence by intentionally obscuring the cc rating of your bike you will be more likely to get done for breaching the licence restrictions than if you are riding a 400, registered as a 400, with 400 decals.

    You'd be better off with a bike with no decals, or with a engine transplant eg gsxr 250 with a gsxr 400 engine, registered as a 250.

    Though the point still stands, why are you going to get stopped?
    What are you planning to do on the bike that will get you stopped?

    scenario 2, I wouldn't have a chance. Does honesty work on cops? Hopefully i'd run into a female officer and, well, you know how it goes, show a little skin here and there . Might get off lightly, worth a shot isn't it?
    Yes most of the time they would have checked your plate and found out it was a 400 before your brake light went on...,

    Another thing i thought of, i was pretty close to doing what you were thinking, is insurance.. i doubt theyd insure you, if they would if would probably be astronomical, if you crashed into a cage and had to do insurance bullshit, dunno if theyd pay out if you were on a bike too big for your license? i think what your thinking of doing requires a big wallet, risk of fines,a new bike. poetntially a new cage for some guy
    i dont think its worth if man, buy an RGV250, that'll prob scare the shit out of you

    Register the CBR"250" as a Honda CBR motorcycle to get out of scenario 1.

    Register the 400 to a next of kin and say it's their bike you're just riding it home for them to get out of scenario 2.

    Or alternatively run the gauntlet and bend over and take it like a man when and if the time comes

    I'm not really planning to do stupid things, learn how to wheelee maybe but I'm not really a racer, infact I've got some Jehovas Witness influences in me (though it hasn't influenced my mouth much). I was just worried if I'd get pulled over for purely being on 2 wheels.

    yeah - both times it was down in front of the container terminal - queens wharf
    'what did i do?'
    'nothing sir - licence check'
    'Oh, OK'

    And did you know it is a $200 fine for not having the rego label showing?
    I've had a warning for that too.

    Erm, why not just wait till you get your full, stick with the GN - and get a bigger bike i.e 600
    But hey thats just what I would do..

    unfortunately I was run over by a toyota and my bike is damaged, ridable but still damaged and I don't think it's worth trying to prolong the moment of 250ness by repairing it.

    oh crap sacks - go get a cheap 2smoking 250 and ring its nuts off then.

    Then get a new bike - and use the smoker as a trade or for racing
