    You need a Sportster if you want to crank 'em over. With long rear shocks.

    to be fair to them, rather than them come out swinging punches he did first approach me with the the right diocument outlining the issue whicj i though t was professional, what wasn't with a rule that was a measurement, rather than a judgement they had no set tool to do it with

    Yeah it's at the discretion of the officer who's pulled you up at the time to whether or not they enforce an infringement notice or not. Gets interesting if the vehicle is in an accident though they can follow it through to whoever issued the WOF if the cause of the accident is a defect that wasn't up to WOF standard etc can get messy for the business who issued said WOF
    Think there was a case on FairGo a few years back in regards to that sort of thing and the business who'd been issuing WOFs got their arses well & truly reamed

    And now many such businesses are getting super strict on what isn't allowed ... as they perceive the rules to be. What was ignored in the past now gets the thumbs down.

    With the issue of a WOF now attributable to the individual that issued the WOF (rather than the business alone) ... some individuals are stricter than others. Even if the others are with the same business.

    yeah true, it's like what used to be well known places around chch that were the place to go for an easy WOF are now some of the most stringent.
    But in saying that the testing for certification for issuing WOFs can be a joke....have seen it 1st hand were the tester followed the Mech around the vehicle being used and actually was pointing out items the Mech missed and happily signed off on the renewed certificate

    fufuksake...

    putting a number plate on wrong is as rebellious as putting your hat on backwards

    just do the job properly and get on with riding
