** LAMS / Learners Bike Discussion **

[Twincam16]

Rob I heard RTA instructed all registered engineering firms which certify for the RTA that they arent allowed to restrict/modify and re-register any motorbikes from a different CC for LAMS approval. So make sure you can do it by calling up some approved workshops (see RTA website for list) before you buy it.

Happened after RR motorcycles was selling CBR600/GSXR600's and getting them detuned and re-engineered. They never originally had approval from the RTA to do this (regardless of what he says) and all the poor pricks that bought these bikes off him had the RTA de-register and re-register their bikes without LAM approval.

Police have been instructed to report any of these motorcycles which have this kind of registration to the RTA if they are ridden by learners. Rego gets cancelled.

Even if you dont get pulled over, when you need to ride it un-restricted it needs to have rego cancelled and re-done, thats after its re-tuned. RR was charging $2000 to have it done, and $1000 to have it undone. Now they are selling business...
