Just in time for the death of the sportscar, too.

(Keep in mind, too, that speeding is much more tightly enforced in Europe than in the US. Limiting what motorcycles and cars can do is a small part of a huge issue.)

You would have thought that there were far more important issues for the EU to waste their time with. I don't remember any big storm about bike modifications, did I miss something? It just goes to further prove what a waste of time the EU is.

Especially with the general state of the economy, job losses, house repos etc etc etc

Should get rid of them and most of the UK parasites, sorry politicians as the first cost cutting measure!

This imposition does nothing to help the environment, the economy, or the quality of life.
Hopefully the owners of 4 wheels will see what's coming & join the 2 & 3 wheeled to check this crap.

That's OK because I will be out of here by then. My committment ends in November 2012 and that is when Uncle Sam has to find me a spot back in the states.

Give a computer geek an hour and a half and there will be so many work arounds on the market that you will be cross-eyed trying to decide which one to use. Think of it more as a stimulus package for unemployed programmers!

I agree with this. Just look at radars and radar detectors, the man comes out with a new radar and soon after some company comes out with a detector for it.
