new_boy Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Hi Guys This is my first road legal bike after passing my test a few months ago. So far i have removed as much bolt on bullsh*t as i dare, changed the seat, numberplate/light arrangement and sprayed a few bits up, oh and the tyres. My next mods will be somesort of straight through exhaust and also to remove the foot boards (if anyone has any info or links to another post on this i would be grateful) Anyway let me know what you all think as i am still undecided Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Campaman Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Looking good, think you may need mudguards of some sort though as the bike is not road legal without them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noise Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Wow, has some one stuck some thing un comfortable up yer arse? lol Your will find that just putting straight through pipes on aint that simple, you will also need to up jet the carbs and all sorts which takes many a day and temper tantrums. Take a look at my Bobber project (link in my sig) what may give you some helpful tips or just a tea break read or even a laugh depending your mood Good going so far tho dude, but unless your just a Harley Davidson wanabie and not going to ride unless there is more than 100% clear sky id put a rear mud guard on, front don't matter much except for MOTs but a rear is a must. Also get rid of those pissing indicators! i have no idea what the Yammy designer was thinking (or smoking) when he / she put them on that bike!

Campaman Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Mudguards are only part of the MOT if they are fitted, but to be road legal you need mudguards, the police can pull you for not having any and I would assume that it could make your insurance invalid. The MOT is a safety check and does not always check everything that makes you road legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
