After Sunday I may need to get my exhaust tested, does any body now who does this on the Central Coast or Sydney?

There's a number up at the Mt White cafe, which I saw on Sunday morning. It's on the noticeboard near the servery bit. You could probably give the cafe a ring as he's run the noise testing thing there a couple of times.
Did you actually get done though or was the copper just trying to be a bit smart.

Hi Glen,
No he said I would get a defect notice in the mail, I had a look at the RTA site and man they are a confusing bunch of dick heads, the cop said I could take the bike to the RTA this is not true, they don't do testing, I would have to take it to the EPA centre in Sydney for them to test it, or if the cop was just out to ruin my day I will source a baffle($20) fit the thing and get it tested and put a label on it, I hope this will be the end of this saga, should have seen his face when I took of my helmut and he saw a old fart standing there, the only laugh I had yesterday.
Mark.

Crash Test Engineering do noise tests, sell spuds and will put a sticker kit on your bike.
The Throttle Stop Cafe at Berowra will have there number.

Yep - Crash Test Engineering is the mob that do it - the only mob.
John (the owner) works out of a garage down Maroubra way - but he's normally up at Mt White the first weekend of the month - though check Mt White cafe for exact details.
If the cop said he's sending you a defect for lack of the sticker then I think he was having you on. Firstly, if he was going to he should've issued it there and then. Secondly, the MCC has a recent win in courting deferring the ability of any authority (cop or epa) to issue a notice due to lack of a sticker. So I think you're fine.

You can contact John at Crash Test on 0411 548968 or
mailto:Crashtesteng@hotmail.com
And as Ty said,i think the cop was trying it on,if he did'nt knick you there and then on the spot he can't do anything.
I'm sure John will answer any of your questions,he's probably the only one who knows what's going on! Top bloke too.
