Title: More Crap from the EU Post by: TwistedPatience on June 03, 2011, 03:00:09 PM Quote from MAG (Motorcycle Action Group)
"France intends making dayglo vests compulsory for motorcyclists this year, that means visitors too! French bikers are protesting, we should support them. We could be next!!" Other laws include Anti tamper, this will mean that you can't fix your own bike or add parts or even change your tyres unles you go to a MAIN dealer. Throttle control, this one is really scary, remote throttle control so if your in a 30 mph zone the bike will do no more than 30 you have no control of the throttle unless you decrease speed. Please people if your not already a member of MAG join, apart from getting discount on many things including insurance (Archie) you will be fighting against all the stupid legislation that the EU are bringing in, the above being just a few of them.
