    Question Is this legal?

    Is it ok to have the headlight assembly on the bike without the light bulbs in them? Or will I have to tape up the front?

    I think the ruling is for accidents, the smash spreads glass or whatever it is made out of, all over the place.

    Don't know for sure, but I would say you have to tape it up.

    yes, i would agree, although if you got some of that clear sticky stuff (the stuff you put on your tank to protect the paint), that might legalise it = if the glass breaks, it won't go anywhere cause its stuck down (just like tape, except clear)

    Tape is extra weight on the bike that I don't really need

    Yeah, don't know why I really bothered. I was trying to take the whole assembly out whilst leaving the clear plastic on the fairings, only the assembly is being a bitch and won't release the clear plastic part

    Pretty silly question, now lets let this thread die

    I've got a sh!t load of 4mm clear plastic that you could make a cover and remover the head lights completely.

    I left the bulbs out and left the assembly on the bike. I also taped it up just so I don't get hassled. The RG is now ready to race next week

    why?

    Smash em before you go to the track and leave the broken glass on the floor of the shed. Sorted!


    Its harder to lose weight than gain horsepower.
