Enduro motorcycles will be able to mount a replacement plate during competitions (thus avoiding the risk of damaging or losing the official one): this is one of the measures present in the text of conversion to DL121 just fired from the Chamber, but still awaiting the approval of the Senate. The Government has raised the question of trust on the text, so no internal changes are possible. This is a historic result, long awaited by the motorcycle sector: we have finally managed to make institutions understand how important it is to preserve the plate from the real risk of damage or loss during enduro competitions, with heavy economic consequences for the owners of the motorcycle. , forced to re-register.
Very positive, moreover, the approval of the proposed amendments to the highway code, which will also make it possible to use motor vehicles to carry out first health emergency services (transport of medical personnel and health facilities) and taxi transport services, recognizing the social function that two-wheeled vehicles can provide to the community. The situation with regard to access and circulation of two wheels on ring roads and motorways is less positive: if, on the one hand, the legislative gap relating to electric motorcycles is finally filled (however setting a very high threshold at 11 kW, which discriminates vehicles with zero emissions compared to thermals), the access ban for scooters with less than 150cc of displacement remains: a constraint that exists only in Italy and that is no longer justified by technological progress and by the levels of safety achieved by two-wheeled vehicles wheels. We hope that in the near future, also with the collaboration of the motorway concessionaires, it will be possible to bring our country into line with the rest of Europe.
Finally, we greet with satisfaction the entry of mopeds into the world of vehicles of historical, collectible and vintage interest: finally, the possibility of being included in the atypical category opens up for them as well and thus be able to enjoy the benefits provided for by the Highway Code. . “I am thrilled and very grateful to everyone who supported the approval of the nameplate – declared the IMF president Giovanni Copioli – “A need that we have been representing to institutions for years becomes a reality. Our request actually also included training, but the institutions considered it possible to provide this possibility only on the occasion of competitions. I dedicate this result to all enduro riders who will be able to use it! I also thank ANCMA and its president Paolo Magri, with whom we supported the battle that led to the approval of this and other changes in favor of the motorcycle world ”.
“With the satisfaction for the news and the results obtained together with the IMF, we must unfortunately also note the lack of approval of the measure concerning the access of the 125 on the motorway. The acceptance of our common requests – commented the president of Confindustria ANCMA Paolo Magri – it is however indicative of the value of our sector and of the greater specific weight that mobility on two wheels has assumed ”.
