Had cops and even hway patrol follow me a couple times and not once pulled over. So unless the cop actually knows what hes lookin at I dont think they will do much lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I JET Member 325 Member For: 11y 10m 21d Gender: Male Location: Wollongong Posted 07/11/14 06:39 AM Share Posted 07/11/14 06:39 AM ^^ I remember hearing the other week that they are getting rid of the ADR that states you must have a red reflector / hideously long fender / shovel extending to the most rear ( back of the rear tyre ) point of the bike. Bike manufactures will start designing shorter fenders similar to the typical fender eliminator for our market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It more means that they'll no longer have to design rear fenders that are solely for the Aussie market - they'll be able to use the ones that are acceptable in the rest of the world.Hopefully more and more ADR's come in line with the rest of the world - Helmets are another item that are ridiculously over regulated and prevents us from having access to some fantastic products and reasonable prices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
