What the petition asks
Older riders have more sense and control than younger riders and with bike specs getting safer bigger bikes for older riders will bring down the amount of accidents we feel the law should change on the cc learners can ride
It's proven that the bigger cc bikes have more chance of getting out of situations than smaller ones do most incidents involve 17 to 21 year olds through lack of control whereas 25 plus riders have more concentration and the ability to see oncoming danger and react more quickly
