    No but there actions don't affect my rego fees as much as the riding and crashing done by fellow riders does.

    Not sure what ammunition they will get from full compliance with the law. Should everyone wear hi-viz as well?

    Jeans will do, right? They're safety gear now!

    Stuff and nonsense. While the Police may get tut tutty about motorcycle apparel, if a rider is wearing a "securely fitting helmet" and isn't offending public decency, all the cops can do is collect statistics. They can only uphold the law. Fortunately ATGATT isn't legal. New Zealand already has way too many stupid, unnecessary, unenforceably laws. Please don't give us any more.

    Expect for all the car drivers that knock us off our bike?

    The Kapiti Coast is enough to put me off, what a dump! Suicidal drivers and cheese cutters for median barriers.

    This is what the cops and regulators are most likely to be interested in. http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/5999...-badly-injured

    I doubt that a fluoro vest would have made a jot of difference in this case.

    I shall press my leopardskin latex mankini tonight so that I'm freshly attired and hopefully some big hunky cop will frisk me (blush)....

    Sigh!

    Just the thought of the fucking moron from ACC that plastered those scooters in cloth of tasteless hues giving me a lecture on motorcycle apparel fills me with horror.... argh!

    I was going to post this thread up as a warning to those who might ride their bikes unreg but decided I would get too much of a roasting from the do it safe and legal brigade...

    Well I will be running the gauntlet tomorrow on my way to work. Should I receive any kind of lecture, I will remove my kevlar pants, jacket and gloves, stow them in my top box and continue my ride in jeans and t shirt. Fuck the safety nazis.
