Hey cheers thanks! Actually the only way really is at the shrines here, but you would want to get the real kind anyways cause they're filled with luck!

Very nice, don't you worry about the cops giving out fines for no brakes? I had a few friends get ¥50,000 fines.

It's funny, I've actually been stopped 7 times and one time interrogated in the police headquarters for 6 hours... but never paid anything ever.

Wow, held for 6 hours without charge for no brakes. I think I would prefer the fine. Time is money mofos. I think the lesson to be learnt here children is that if a Japanese policeman asks you to stop, go faster!
