Two more off-road motorbikes have been seized by the Bradford district's 'Quad Squad'.
The first was being ridden by a male with no helmet, on the pavement on Toller Lane near to Fairfield Road, on Friday.
A police officer in plain clothes on an unmarked police motorbike approached the rider and seized the bike.
The rider will be placed on a section 59 warning for 12 months.
The second bike was stopped and seized on North Avenue near to Queens Road, also on Friday.
The 15-year old male rider was followed and videoed by the officer. He pulled over when requested and was spoken to in the presence of his mother at the roadside.
He will also be facing a 12 month warning regarding his anti-social use of the small bike, which reached a speed over 20mph as the officer followed behind.
PC Hudson, from the bike team, said: "Pavements are for people and not for vehicle use. The other small bike was ridden in the middle of a busy road, risking injury to himself as vehicles at junctions wouldn't have been able to see him when they pulled out.
"Both riders are now without their bikes and is unlikely they will be returned”.
