Motorcyclist with 46 points caught at 110mph

A motorcyclist with a whopping 46 points on his licence has been caught travelling at 110mph on the A47 near Norwich.

The rider was caught riding a modified Honda CBR600 with a pillion, and his 46 points weren’t all that was wrong. The rider had no insurance and the bike hasn’t had an MoT since, wait for it… 2008.

Unsurprisingly the bike doesn’t look in great condition, with Norfolk and Suffolk’s Road Policing Twitter account noting a defective tyre, loose speedo cable, loose seat and cables preventing the full range of steering.

Police have seized the bike and the rider is due to appear in court.
