Seriously though, motorcycling is supposed to be about fun and being a little different from the car driving masses, OK so you need to be a little more cautious when you've made your bike less visible (in certain situations) although thats not a bad thing
In the days before ANPR and speed cameras a friend of mine
ran an old school Katana and it was barely legal, only road tax and MOT it had came with the bike (he had it 5 years) the rear brake used to seize up all the time (lack of use) so he removed the pistons, if the old bill tried to stop him he'd just foc off.
You may see that as reckless, and your welcome to your own opinion, but to him it was just a bit of fun and nobody got hurt (possibly a few old bills ego's)

Complete fabrication, I didn't make it up!
