Scootering back to Aus (Melbourne) from UK and want to transfer my motorcyle license. I have a UK A1 class motorcycle license (A full A1 licence permits you to ride any motorcycle up to 125cc and a power output of up to 11kW (14.6 bhp) without `L' plates, carry pillion passengers and use motorways.) Can this be transferred to something useful back in Aus (Victoria) so I can ride a Vespa (150cc) with sitting any more tests or having L/P plates??

The starter on my 1982 Kawasaki KZ 750 LTD runs continuously when the battery is connected. I've checked the kill switch and the ignition and neither seem to be shorting out. What should i check next? [more inside]

A motorcycle cop turned on the flashing lights and started weaving back and forth between cars on the highway. The passes kept getting wider, gradually prompting everyone to clear out of all 4 lanes and hang back about 1/4 mile behind him. Then he continued these sweeping 'S' maneuvers across the lanes for miles. By the time I had to exit, prevailing speed had dropped from 75 to 40. What was he doing, and why?

UK-dwelling or motorcycle enthusiast MeFites may be able to help on this one. I'm coming up with nothing in my search for information about a magazine about motorcycle touring that's based in Bristol, England. I believe the title is Motorcycle Ventures, but that could be wrong. Anyone know what I'm talking about?
