On your learners? WEAR YOUR PLATE

[moT]

u should of just gapped it lost him thru auckland traffic its easy

A plate is quite hard to attach and can be quite brittle. A sugarbowl is much easier - two cable-ties and viola!

Whats a sugarbowl? I always thought it was some kind of sexual manouvre

It is. That's where the cable ties come in useful....

Kinda like a dirty sanchez I think... Or not.

yea i totally agree. just drop it down a cog and get the front wheel up, then the cop cant even tell if you have an L plate or not.

Or do this http://videos.streetfire.net/video/C...nch_170709.htm

Sugar Bowl
n. Another word for the female rectum, also commenly known as the anus, poopshoot, butthole, brown eye, leather cheerio, rectum.

[sinister^]

are you going to complain about that too?

Yes I might actually, I wrote a letter to the police about the no L plate ticket and that I am a poor uni student and am in dept as it is already. -

I don't think this letter will achieve anything, but it never hurts to try.

How can we demand respect from others - when we think its clever to be a total cunt to them regardless of us being in the wrong?

The way the cop was talking to me after I was being polite to him was up right rude.

Is that too me? If so I was in the country and my ninja250r wouldn't outrun that cage lol.


For future reference, I'm wearing my L plate now.

Who?

I got a parking ticket today yippee $40 for parking on footpath in the city.

Yeah, saw a black ninja 250r 2008 with a L plate, guess it wasn't you then.

rusty bullet hole, tea towel holder, sherriffs badge.....

My justification for wearing L plates is that my bike's only worth $400, so why want to double the cost of owning it by not having an L plate?

Also, surely insurance companys wouldnt be happy if you rode round without one?

Hmmm cos i got the nick name for it in uni. Cos if ya straddling a girls midrif and you put a back pack strap over her upper midrif(funbags) then it becomes a sugarbowl for your man love?

Sugarbowl: Much like a teacup, but with two handles opposite each other.

There seems to be an awful lot of advice on how to not wear your L plate in this thread, for all the fact that it's saying wear it. My two cents.

I add:

If you fit into the crowd, you'll mostly be ignored, so ride well and obey the laws. If you suck, wear the L plate. If you can't afford the fines, wear the L plate. If you've been riding for years out the back of your house, then okay, don't wear it, but don't pack a wobbly when you get caught.

And don't expect sympathy on KB on these subjects pretty much ever...

What makes you different from anyone else that chooses to ignore, break the rules which everyone has to abide by..? If you can't afford the $400.00 fine, maybe should have thought about that before riding without an l-plate on...

Also, surely insurance companys wouldnt be happy if you rode round without one?

Yup you have a bin, are involved in an accident, and you are riding outside your licence conditions. You will suffer the consequences, insurance companies won't pay out if you are found to be breaking a condition of your licence... And you will still face the prospect of a fine anyways for breach of licence condition...

Why not simply, no matter what you ride like, if you are on your learners stick to the licence conditions of displaying your l-plate and not have to worry about it. Makes for more enjoyment of your riding, if you are not worrying about getting caught.....

But if you do get caught you have only yourself to blame....

That would be a perfect world but we all know there are gonna be the wankers who don't use it then bitch like schoolgirls when they get fined, and when, as prementioned, other drivers give L platers respect and are careful around them, but they don't really, not that I've ever seen.

I'm freely also admitting that I'm probably gonna be a wanker at some point during my learner period and remove my L plate, but only after I'm confident. But I'll just keep my mouth shut when I get caught.
