It's a Protest AGAINST...EC regulation. What else?
An EC directive is heading to their parliament which is proposing a set of dragonian reg's that will restrict motorcyclists doing things to their bike; e.g. a bit of servicing or any modifications.
Obviously there is a lot more to the list of proposed restistrictions that what has been mentioned here but it should be considered quite important if you are thinking about buying a new bike in the future and expecting to maintain its' warranty whilst avoiding the dealer network.
In other words: Don't F**k with it unless you are authorised.
No need to protest because I'm not going to follow any of their stupid fecking rules anyway. When they sort out the major financial fuck up then they can come tinker with my bike. Until that time
