Title: Wtf ,We've Been doing it wrong Post by: FIFO on August 01, 2013, 11:33:26 PM I guess the rules vary from state to state . :-\
The latest from the National Transport Commission, trying standardize the rules across the country. ??? *To allow a rider to remove his/her feet from the footrest to manoeuvre the vehicle, such as reversing the bike into a parking space So now i can reverse park with out having to balance. :D still can't legally remove your feet from the foot peg to stretch your legs, while moving over 10 klm/r :'( *Allow to remove both hands of the handle bars while stationary but not parked But at least you can scratch your nuts while waiting at the lights :-* or for the ladies, adjust your Boobies probably need two hands for that [roll] NTC Road rules amendment Rule 271 – riding on motorbikes: to allow a rider to remove his/her feet from the footrest to manoeuvre the vehicle, such as reversing the bike into a parking space, or when the motor bike (at low speed <10km/h) is decelerating to come to a rest, or accelerating from a rest. To further allow a rider to remove both hands off the handlebars when the bike is stationary but not parked.
