Shit, I look down and I'm consistantly having to slow down, I always find myself around 15mph over. It's so easy just to roll that throttle an 1/8th of an inch and realize you're already 10mph over the limit.

Re: Ok we know the rules are changing...
That's what I'm thinking about! Seriously...
Only problem is the lack of twisties, really. I've literally seen some Floridians posting videos online of how far their lean angles are and how they can drag their knee pucks on the entrance/exit ramp loops. That's their twisties! LOL! I guess I'll either have to become a drag racer, or full time stunter.

Re: Ok we know the rules are changing...
damn good point... im highly considering starting an LLC in delaware just so i can register there! LOL
seriously though, this new policy is going to make lawyers A LOT of money on speeding tickets. pay 4000 or lawyer up and pay 500 +fines on a lower charge. no brainer.
must be a lawyer conspiracy.... they werent gettin paid so they lobbied for stricter traffic laws.... lol

Re: Ok we know the rules are changing...
i was actually thinking about this the other day, and decided that more than likely i'm gonna run, mainly because i can cruise around at 85 mph and be in perfect control but have it considered reckless, which means i'm gonna be paying close to $4000, on the other hand if i run, i should be able to get through traffic rather easily, i do have a sport bike, not hard to weave in and out of traffic and use the shoulders, which will put me far outta the cop's line of sight, then take the exit ramp at a much slower speed get about 3 minutes into town, park the bike, hide out for a bit, home free, easy

Re: Ok we know the rules are changing...
Here's something else no one is concidering on the running idea. If a helicopter is involved (which they will call out if a bike runs), they also are able to use infra-red (sp??) to follow your heat trace from your tires into your garage or wherever. I know if Alvin sees this he should remember the situation. The guy thought he got away, he was already comfy and eating pizza when they knocked on the door.
Years ago, I would never have thought twice about it...would have been gone. Now I have a clean license, am old, and have a family to take care of. I can't do them any good in jail or 6' under, so I won't run. But then again, I'm usually not doing anything way out of line anyway...usually!

NOT FLORIDA! TEXAS!!! Land is cheaper and houses are bigger! I'm getting an acre of land-anyone know how much it costs to build a basketball/stunt court in a backyard?
