Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahwhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

Never heard such a funny comment in all my life.

You can waste your time and ruin your day fixing punctures. I have no uncertainty about being nicked for mousses. In 25 years I've only been stopped once by a copper and that was to be asked to help him push his 4x4 from a ditch on a lane he was stuck in. Of course I laughed at that and declined to help!

Hahahahahhahahaha. Uncertainty of being nicked for mousses. Hahahahahahaha

Mousses vs tubes vs Tubliss...the debate will go on until the end of time...

So if you were involved in a serious road collision and they took your bike away to be examined we might well be laughing.

Thier is an article written recently by a barrister regarding using mousses.Maybe you think he is also talking out of his hole ?
I was going to post it for you too read, but you would struggle with the big words.

Yea I read it, still couldn't actually pin down what actual offence is committed by running mousses and that barrister also runs mousses on his trail bike. So whatever.

We ran the mouse debate on here a few months back.

They are unsuitable for road use, and marked and sold as such by Michelin etc.

Up to you if you use them or not, but please don't tell others they are legal when there is no evidence that they are at all and the manufacturers' instruction is to the contrary.

And, as Graham said, if a motorcycle or any other vehicle is involved in a KSI accident then the Police vehicle examiners will take it away and have a very good look at it.

And they don't care what the cause of the accident was, they just want to finger all the collars they can. Gra and I know someone who was blatantly knocked off his bike while trail riding and badly injured. He was obviously not at fault, but his bike was still taken away for examination.

And we haven't even started on the insurance implications...

In short...use them if you must, but don't come crying if you get caught.

( Gra and I know someone who was blatantly knocked off his bike while trail riding and badly injured. He was obviously not at fault, but his bike was still taken away for examination).

What was the result of the examination? Was the bike fitted with standard tubes, heavy/ultra duty tubes, tubliss, mousses etc.?

Are heavy/ultra duty tubes or the tubliss system legal?
