At the most basic of levels, this bill [if turned into law] cannot be enforced. Why have a law that can't be enforced? I mean, there is no way to prove how long someone has had their M license...

There are other things that are VERY wrong with this. But, at the most basic of levels it should be something that officers aren't left to their own devices...

It's just another "rule" full of loopholes with which they can bust riders' balls.

So to refer back to my first post, is a 250 ninja or 250 CBR considered a sport bike? Should those two bikes only be allowed to be ridden by people with 2 years experience? Or should those bikes be reccomended as good bikes to learn on, because it sounds like they fit in the sport bike category

They both fit the description.

The intent IS to limit Johnny Squid, but how does this law as it's worded do that? It states two years... no where on my license does it have a date when I earned my M license. And, how does having it for two years help anything? I could be THAT guy that gets it, and doesn't use it for two years...
