|
|
Need some real owner advice on a GSXR 1000's 2007 K7 through to L5
Is there much difference between the k5 vs the k7 as I really just want the k5 but because of ULEZ and the fact it costs £175 to use https://www.nationalemissionstestcentre.com/ for a test and theres no guarantee the k5 will pass
im left with the option of the k7/k8 as im not really keen on the look of the L models but if they are nearer to the k5 performance then id forgo the looks and happily jump on an L model ____________________ Elen sila lummen omentielvo! |

crisis averted lol
The GSXR 1000 k5/k6 exhaust emission on Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) is 0.09 which is below the threshold for ULEZ so will looking for a k5/k6 now
I is a very happy man, the Grom stays as I can never let that go!
I called up a dealer and that was whats on the log book, so when i get mine i just need to send that in to TFL
This site helped big time find that out: https://www.bikerandbike.co.uk/loophole-means-older-motorbikes-may-still-qualify-for-ulez-exemption/ ____________________ Elen sila lummen omentielvo! |

Yes i checked the TFL site and it basically said if your NOx emissions are below 0.15 then just email a copy of the vehicle log book with this information to them or if you dont have this info then a Certificate of conformity is required or you can get the bike tested for emissions at https://www.nationalemissionstestcentre.com/
This would grant you an exemption but at the moment its on a per vehicle basis and not a blanket vehicle basis which would make sense but meh!
hope this information helps anyone else who is curious about their bikes
this ULEZ is a headache and a money spinner, if you was serious about reducing pollution and it was not about money then you would implement a flat out ban on private vehicles and taxis and make transport in central London free on all trains/tubes/buses/bicycles ____________________ Elen sila lummen omentielvo! |

ULEZ checker just goes by date for bikes. If it's earlier than about july 2007 you gotta email in some evidence. NOx data off the v5c will do it. ____________________ a.k.a 'Geri'
