The Sri Lankan government has set its sights on allowing the registration of motorcycles with engines above 450 CC.

The Department of Motor Transport confirmed that detailed documents are being prepared to submit to the relevant cabinet authorities.

Once approved, this initiative will pave the way for the registration of higher capacity motorcycles.

According to internal sources in the Department of Motor Transport, expeditious action will be taken after cabinet approval.

The use of unregistered motorcycles has been linked to criminal activities. By streamlining the registration process, law enforcement agencies can better monitor motorcycles and prevent illegal behavior.

Registered vehicles provide crucial data for investigations. By extending the registration for higher capacity motorcycles, authorities will be able to overcome obstacles in identifying and arresting offenders.
