This is in Australia, but damn…after the whole NYC thing Australia has been going nuts with bike laws and ticketing. Half of the Ninja 300 forum is from the land down under so that’s how I heard about this.

I know I’ve stood on my pegs or done what he did a few times. I usually stand a bit though because the Ninja 300 seat is horrible, I’m having Soft’n’Cushy in Schenectady redo it this spring.

I read this on reddit. Not really surprising since Australia is kind of fucked up. They all have an inherent hatred on anything fun like motorcycles and video games.
