Summary

Like many others I have been aware of this Bull$hit for a while now, but as the new ULEZ (Ultra low emission zone) is coming into force by 8th April 2019 I thought I'd better check the status of both my bikes, a 2006 Bandit 1200 & 2005 Fazer 1000. Both bikes were were 'according to TFL" NO LONGER Euro 3 exempt.  I found all the relevant sites where you can put in your reg and it will tell you if your bike is exempt -

• ULEZ site & check - https://tfl.gov.uk/modes/driving/ultra-l...ssion-zone
  
• T-charge site & check- https://tfl.gov.uk/modes/driving/emissio...ce-checker
  
• Congestion Zone -  (bikes are and have always been exempt) https://tfl.gov.uk/modes/driving/congest...his-page-1
  

• The date of registration is before 01st July 2007, TFL will consider it non-compliant.
  
• The date is as above but the Exhaust Emission section is populated, then all you need to do is send a copy of the V5C to the ULEZ dept at TFL and they will then update the website to show it as compliant.(may not require having to create a TFL account so good).
  
• But if the date is before 01/01/07 and the Exhaust Emission section is not-populated, then you can either request a letter of homologation from Yamaha stating the Euro3 status (I believe there is no charge for this, which is the route I am going down).
  
• Or you can just pay the £75 to Yamaha to get a CoC if the bike is older than 2002 (Euro3 came in for motorcycles in 2002)
  
• Honda don't charge for the CoC, while all the others do - Yamaha(£70), Kawasaki (TBC), Suzuki (£90).
  
• An alternative (albeit scam) option, if you can't get a Euro3 status letter or a CoC, is to get it emissions (NOx) tested (see below)
  

• The owner has a family member who works inside TFL. This may or may not explain why -
  • This shop (Riverbank m/c) is only place with the ability to do the emissions test for ULEZ compliance.
    
  • The charge is £175 and is what most people would consider a scam.
    
    
  [/li]
  
• If your bike fails the emissions test, RB m/c charge £75 to jam a catalytic convertor into the exhaust (link pipe) of carburetted vehicle.
  • As understand it, fitting a cat to a carburetted vehicle will at best last few months before the cat is useless, therefor fitting it would appear to be fraudulent?
    
  • The owner has been quoted as saying 'it doesn't matter, once the bike has passed the test you can just remove it'. I will leave the obvious conclusion to you the motorcyclist.

• Here is a report of a Yamaha RD350 & TDR250 passing the above test, which shows ULEZ is basically a scam.

Hopefully I will have time to fit it soon!  I will put details up.

Has anyone purchased from them lately?.

Is ANY part still available?.

Everything I've just looked for, even the sundry stuff like screws, filters and pads is coming up as unavailable to order.

I wouldn't be surprised if all the tanks, inlet rubbers and exhausts had gone, but all the nuts & bolts too??.

occurred earlier this week and most of you may have seen it

condolences to his family, friends and volunteer colleagues, even with all that hi viz someone has not seen him. But to be fair, I don't know the road so cannot comment on blind spots etc. Be interesting to see what the car driver has to say

anyone fitted a satnav to Pan or a similar bike that doesn't have standard bars?

by that, I mean if you look at the bars on a Pan then it's like having two separate individual bars (one on each side) with no middle bit of bar where you'd usually fit the bracket for satnav

I want advice on the best type of satnav for a Pan (fitting wise) if anyone has done it/knows anyone who's done it

cheers

Anyone seen one off these?
