Most shops will pass them on inspection, but they are liable if it is discovered that they passed it on inspection that way. 15" is pretty standard. I think it is from an old D.O.T. regulation for new bikes.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #489378 smokeymtnbill (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 150 Re:New Ohio State Patrol 'guidelines'... 1 Year ago   It's the same all over. Money is being cut left and right from all L.E. budgets. They are not saying you gotta get a quota but if you want a take home car or weekends off you might want to pick up the ticket writting. Most troppers would write their own mother a ticket Ticket writting always goes up when the tax revenue and federal govt money goes away.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #489547 Edge51 (User) 2000 Roadstar Platinum Boarder Posts: 2203 Re:New Ohio State Patrol 'guidelines'... 1 Year ago   takehikes wrote: and we all need to fight each and every time we get busted. Eventually they will back off. As a chopper rider during the worst of times way back I can tell you that it's the only way to make them back off....know the applicable laws better than they do and then stick it to them in court, not on the road side. Back then they did it just for harrassment not revenue generation, talk about pissing you off. Oh and it helps a lot if we don't behave like jackasses too. NOw THAT's GOOD ADVICE.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #489611 RCStephenson (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 250 Re:New Ohio State Patrol 'guidelines'... 1 Year ago   jd750ace wrote: ....Every state that touches Ohio makes fun of it, and not just that baseball pennant they call a flag either!

Platinum Boarder Posts: 1462 Re:New Ohio State Patrol 'guidelines'... 1 Year ago   Lots of cars have that plate cover that blocks camera and I don't see them getting harrassed, seems like a god idea for the bike...   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #489798 Roger7886 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1442 Re:New Ohio State Patrol 'guidelines'... 1 Year ago   I've was pulled over once on my Honda I used to have one night going home.from school. Cop told me I had no tail lights and he actually followed me home so I didn't die... This was about 10 years ago tho... I don't remember the last time I saw a.scoot pulled over. The cagers give the local leo's plenty enough reasons to pull them over so we get left alone.for the most part it seems.   Logged     I was born An AR in my hands Behind the gun Ill make my final stand And thats why they call me Bad Company   The administrator has disabled public write access. #489818 jd750ace (User) I'm not IN danger, I AM the danger Platinum Boarder Posts: 7985 Re:New Ohio State Patrol 'guidelines'... 1 Year ago   If a camera got you for speeding, ask for court and ask to be confronted by your accusor. It is a basic right. If the camera is not operated by a Law enforcement officer, you can beat it. Cameras are not deputies. That's how they are beating them in Texas.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #489910 LIGHTNIN (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 273 Re:New Ohio State Patrol 'guidelines'... 1 Year ago   This really happened. In the 70's while I was awaiting discharge in Ca. I ran into a bud who joined up with me. I was off every night so ran the bars etc. Took him with me one night. He was on the back of my scoot, I made a turn and the lights came on. I pulled over put the kick stand down and went to meet the cop. He did'nt want me he wanted my passenger. Now this cop has a huge book on the hood of his car opened to a certain page. Made my bud read it then gave him a ticket for taking a foot off the peg while turning!!!! Believe it or not. Glad I live in Texas. Some of my vet buds who still live out on the shakey side and still ride say it is really bad now.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
