There was also an article in MCN (Paper copy a couple of weeks ago) about how the Training Companies current bikes will no longer comply with the requirements of the new tests.........

Really great I read Trevor's post about that here

So a great future for a new breed of motorcyclists.

Re: More Hoops for Learners

Well guys it cost me £7.10 in 1977.
DVLA lost my licence.
It cost me £720 in 2011.
Goodness only knows what the poor learner will have to shell out for that lot.
I really think with the "Day Glo's" No Mods and now this that the government is trying to kill motorcycling.

Re: More Hoops for Learners

Well - for anyone reading this who isn't an "activist", it just shows you what can happen if everyone sits back and let things happen without protest.

So maybe you need to think about other things that are in the pipeline.

Has everyone contacted their MEP's about this:
Proposed EU Regulation on Type Approval and Market Surveillance of two and three-wheeled vehicles

Go to MAG website for text of a suggested letter to your MEP's, or contact me and I'll email you the draft.......

Or search on this Forum and you may find the other threads about this.
