Hey all,

Going to get back into road riding.

What's the chance of getting defected with a full exhaust? Never considered it back in the day, are things stricter now?

Places or times to avoid around sydney?

Cheers.

Keep off the thottle around police...

Thanks boss.

Are there defect stations? Heard mention of them but maybe covid stopped all of that.

Think your safe mate. All of my bikes have been able to be defected but never had an issue. If worse comes to worse we can get a blueslip

Chris is driving an 800hp turboed 403 LQ9 running on Ethanol with a locked diff Manualised TH400 with a trans brake and no cats on twin 3” exhausts. I think your the least of their worries

Interesting. You'd want to be careful riding a ZRX past a heavy vehicle inspection station - get pulled over for avoiding inspection for sure
