Post subject: bike registration

Some say I should register my bike and get the small plate, some say I should not worry. Confused
Did you do it? Which documents are requested?

Thanks!

Every once in a while the police get a bug up their butts and confiscate bikes without number plates. It all boils down to how lucky you think you are.

Your bike is much more likely to get stolen than get confiscated.

Spend the money and get a quality lock instead.

They're busy with other things and it's not exactly easy to confiscate a bike, since it doesn't fit in a car.

It all depends on how lucky you are. It is not uncommon for the PSB to go on a spree to nab people on illegal bikes.
