Fines and penalties

[Yianni91]

Hi all, I just recently purchased a 140cc pit bike on the weekend, bought all my safety gear( boots, gloves, jersey, helmet, pants etc) and found out yesterday its illegal to ride these bikes in state forests, or ANY public roads. I bought the bike mainly to ride in places such as Menai, Stockton beach and Lithgow so my question is if I am wearing all appropriate safety gear, dont ride like a hoon and get my bike licence, will I still get pulled over and fined by rangers?

Thanks.

Illegal is illegal, dont matter how good ya look doin it your still breaking the
law

If you have a license and registered bike then you can ride pretty much where ever you like (except for private property and catchment areas) but getting your bike registered will be impossible, at least I am pretty sure it is
