side lights in daylight - permissible

headlights during daylight - questionable

fog lights during daylight ( & not when needed ) - not permissible

but the best solution if you're really insistent is just to turn on the side lamps ( you will look like a chav, mind )

If you really want to look like a chav it seems to be the fashion these days to have one of the lights defective at all times. ::)

a 1997 TDM 850 Plenty fast enough for me, though I have to say that it rarely gets used these days. In fact, I lent it to a mate last summer and he did more miles in a week in Scotland than I'd done in the previous few years.  :-[

Nice, very tidy. Mines just a dry weather thing. Not to the extent that I have a flid if it rains while I'm on it. But generally don't take it out if the weather looks threatening. Put 6000 miles on it in 3 years though, just on pleasure.

I'm a fair weather rider too I can help it, though I have used it to commute in the past .... either get wet or queue for ever on the M60 in the car. Not sure how many miles I've put on it in recent years, but I bought it about 11 yrs ago with around 10k miles on it & it's now at almost 20k miles
