That does suck. I still build em without front brakes, he’ll I ride don’t care about slowing down! Seriously abs on a bike mandatory? Maybe it should be that you don’t let stupid people ride. Does all cars and trucks have to do it too?
It isn't required on cars and trucks as far as I know, but probably gonna happen.
There are exceptions for classic and rare bikes, but I know personally 3 blokes that import bikes as a business. 1 from USA, and 2 from Japan, where most of our imported vehicles come from. They are possibly stuck with hundreds of thousands worth of bikes they won't be able to sell.
I have another 2 that may never make compliance.
Plenty of idiots on the road here too TC, that's where experience comes in. After 40 years of riding, you can spot them from miles away.
Rant over..
Man you said it. I guess after 50 years I can see I’m too a long way off, maybe further if I got me glasses on!
Another interesting Vincent..

What a great story, and very nice looking bike as well
Looks nimble as f—k.
Well I guess I did it again, had some fuel problems, so pulled the tank to up grade all the goodies inside the tank, and well since I was there, why not get some 8.1 injectors. Now I’m kinda crazy about all things bike so I see to it I never get bored, why not paint the bike again. (Painted it last winter)
So it’s going to go back together with the first primer coats on it just so I can have a little fun with the all new fuel system upgrades, then a nice January or February project to paint,, looking to do some ghost pearl, thanks Mike for the inspiration,, so maybe I can steal some of Ness, vast experience too.
Riding in January,, what t a concept!!
Look forward to the progress pics!
:popcorn:
Heck ya, maybe even in shorts!
We are not in the Deep South but riding season is about 10 months. Plenty of 60 degree days in January and February
