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.
