if a bike does not have these is it still legal? Some one told me it was and i didn't know whether to believe them

My bike never had them, but it's possible that newer ones do need them.

Think you have to have one on the offside to be legal.

anyone know for definate?

You don't need them.

you deffo dont need them. they will pass a mot without also .however in the intrest of living longer than a week or so id try to get a set.

If you dont need them, why do you have to fit mirrors on a quad bike to make it road legal??

think it comes under the same rules as 3 wheeled (reliant robin) thats why you dont need a crash hat

dont know but trust me ya dont need em or you didnt up till 12 months ago.my instructor said it was legal my examiner said it was legal and the mot man passed it.mabye because it has four wheels a quad falls under the same cat as a car or can you ride one on a cbt/bike license?

ahh but isnt there a silly rule some where that as long as it doesnt have a reverse gear you can drive it on a bike license

Showing my age then cause used to when i had bikes

My mate has a zx12r 'streetfighter' style.

'i don't need mirrors, they all look pants'

One 120mph speeding fine later.....d'oh. :x:

Well, I had a 1 small handle bar mounted mirror on my street fighter but I would say that if you don't have mirris then it MAKES you do a life saver look which is alot better!!!

i seem to struggle with the life saver dont know whether its cos im a short arse which gives me a awkward riding position but i cant get a good look behind me cos all i see is shoulder i tend to find myself raisin me arm a bit and lookin under instead
