[h=1]Reject EU (Motorcycle) ‘Anti-tampering’ legislation, this included Art 18 & 52, that will prevent owners customising their bikes and/or using after ma[/h]
Responsible department: Department for Transport
This will automatically become UK law soon and it means that bikers will not be able to customise their bikes in anyway or use cheaper (still safe & approved) ‘after market’ parts making it too expensive for the average rider – None of these directions make any sense at all and will not improve safety in anyway; just line the pockets of the large foreign bike manufactures.
Bikers wil be singled out by the police and stopped and emissions checked; this is discriminatory. They also propose to ban filtering through traffic, which would be dangerous for air-cooled machines that could blow up in traffic and is the extreme of nanny state interference. Banning of motorcycles over 7yrs old in Urban areas. Clearly the EU intent to eradicate ALL motorcycles in the future and this is the thin end of the wedge…nanny state at its worst and it must be stopped right now! This EU legislation must be rejected by the UK government .
hope it is rejected i ride a bike pretty much every day
This is fucking ridiculous! Wish the EU would fuck off and just stop interfering with everything.
I think its a cynical way of making everyone buy new motorbikes so manufacturers make money
