    Thought this could be interesting, would be good to see the most popular reasons.

    I haven't been pulled over at all on mine, even though my exhaust is a bit noisy and I have a trimmed down L plate.

    What about you guys?

    Pulled over 6 years ago for not displaying an L plate on front, which had fell off and you could see the square clean patch were it was.

    Received 3 points n 30pound fine for doing 64 in a 30 zone on a 125 (was young and stupid.)

    Chased 6 years ago for carrying passenger with no helmet on a 50, again young and stupid.

    Recently I havent been pulled or even seen a police car for that matter.

    I reckon I might just get some anyway :p

    Can't believe it, me and my mate pulled over at the side of the road just now, my HT lead had a bad connection. Old bill jut drove right past, my peds got no bodywork and wired exposed, and no front L plate haha

    Haven't been stopped in like over a year. I got stopped about 10 times in the first couple of months after buying my typhoon...

    Last time it was CID (who claimed they we're doing 70 to catch up so who's the real danger lol) who followed me to my house after I was proper ragging it down a long straight road on my way home at 1am. Just checked it wasn't nicked didn't even check insurance etc which I don't mind tbh even though they called my typhoon a heap :(

    Never been stopped for the way I ride or anything apart from that. I do have speeding and l plate points though..
