HELMETS
Ride motorcycle with 4 or more unhelmeted passengers $1089 6 Yes Road Rules 2008
Rule 270 (1)(b)

Geeeez......what exactly do you fuckers get up to that requires this even getting a mention!!
They may as well have....Ride motorcycle with no helmet, tongue hanging to left, irritable bowel syndrome,
whilst copulating with itchy left nutsack....

FFS

not that i think breaking the speed limit is cool or anything and i advise against it unless on track but the lams is a joke
(not that its a bad idea its a great one its there to try save riders )


because my ninja has enuff power to do the speedo to the red line and it has enuff to power to wheelie (not power wheelies though from the lights ) and during a very smooth road i tested it out and its only a 250

anything over 100kh is enuff to generaly kill you
on aussie roads

So why is LAMS a joke? it is there to protect learners from offing themselfs on over powered hyerbikes, it doesn't get any simpler than that, I grew up with the old system where 250cc was the only choice (be it a pretty poor choice of rides), these days you have a wide range of larger capacity bikes at your disposal

lams is a joke when you've been on it for 11 months and 10 days. But it's not a joke in 23 days.

getting a slight itch there Reedy

thats fair enuff with over powerd bikes

i just thought it was dumb

i know its only there to help

with the lams we an have all sorts of bikes now
wich is awsome and lams is better then the car sytem that takes forever these days

Yes & the car system has serious flaws... the biggest one being lack of professional training.

the one thig they never bothered to teach when doing my car license

they never ever mentioned motorbikes and how to look out for them
its a joke

wich cost us our lives

You take the blue pill - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.

Take both pills and you end up like Heath Ledger!


I used to think the whole restriction thing was bullshit too. I have been riding dirt bikes since i was a wee little bloke and thought i was pretty top shit on a bike.
Fact is, when your riding a 250 or LAMS approved bike and start talking about bigger bikes being OK to ride as a newly licensed rider, you dont really appreciate the power they actually have.

A ZX6/7/9/10 etc is a lot different to ninja250 or even an er6n.
They might feel like pussy cats when your poodling around below 5000rpm, but open the throttle properly and they will tear your farking arms off and leave you wondering why the air tastes like the back end of Ford Laser.

The risks are blah blah blah........ The real risk is that you will in fact end up in a situation you cannot handle for your level of real world experience.
I know and understand that we all develop at different rates and some are far more capable than others. But like has been said before, the law must cater for the lowest common denominator. That means the 18YO Gino who just bought a clapped out R1 with bald tyres and a chain thats ready to snap, who is headed for Chapel street to pull fully sik monos mate.

It sucks arse, but we have to protect that guy from himself.

well said

Couldn't have explained it any better.

Well done adge82 mate...

or you could let him remove himself from the gene pool..
