    totally agree with you on this. just because others dont follow the rules doesnt give you the license to break them . here in bangalore atleast all kinds of bikeers are caught and fined .even 2 stroke rickshaws. they dont make the news.
    WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY

      On to the topic, you see supposedly passionate bikers here itself on xbhp justifying the police action because they're too naive to realize that it's all hogwash. The cops always have and always will target bikers because they simply easier to get money out of. If a person thinks that indian cops are out to uphold the law, then you need to open your eyes to reality. I'm sure everyone's been a victim of a pandu 'fine' at least once. Now if bikers themselves can't stick together and voice against the BS that's been going on for way too long, then how do you expect cops to leave such a lucrative business?

      There is much of a community attitude around here, all i see is people spouting ATKT or whatever BS with such vigour like if you crash and die wearing knee sliders and back protectors, in addition to leathers, carbon fiber helmets and cock protectors, even YOU can get your 72 virgins when you reach heaven...
      Fabulous reply Julian. Wheres the thanks button here! Same here, I still dont know why arent the superbikers who are members here(and some who got featured in the article!!), not doing anything against this even when this place is so popular! Well put mate, well put!

        I fail to understand...if superbikes make so much noise what about fat cops riding their year old bullets which irk you no end and that too without helmets! What about it then? Whatever it is, this calls for some rather stern actions being taken and am willing to support it no matter what. This is insanity. Heres the article and link:
