Green book

[Chainsaw]

Are we required by law to carry the green book or a copy with our bikes?

You are required , according to the letter of the law , to  carry and produce the green book. Blue for car. In reality a photocopy or photo on your phone has worked for many. The officers insistence may depend on why you were stopped , traffic check , speeding , helmet , and your attitude. Be polite . Say hello. Ive been stopped maybe 5 times in 8 years. Showed my motorcycle licence. Never asked for anything else. I carry copy and photo.

A copy of the content up to the last issue of tabien will suffice. Same with the mandatory insurance.

I carry copies of the Tabien also. Along with a copy of the receipts.

Never had a problem regarding bikes.

 

With cars, I display current Tabien, but never offer originals of other documentation.

Again, never had a problem.

You can have a photo of it in the smartphone.

Would rather hand over a hard copy than let them take my phone.
