#131346 Frank_W (User) Riding The Filthy Sow! Platinum Boarder Posts: 3510 Re:140 and Busted! 3 Years, 7 Months ago   There was one at the gas station, yesterday. Looked like he was riding a Road King. Around here, you don't see many motorcycle cops... He said, "Nice day to be on a bike, isn't it!" I said, "Yeah, but I about froze my butt off, this morning!" He just laughed... Cool guy...   Logged     My Music Whatever...   The administrator has disabled public write access. #131347 cass (User) If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Expert Boarder Posts: 477 Re:140 and Busted! 3 Years, 7 Months ago   Man, that was crazy....but cool. More and more officers are seen here in southern maryland on two wheels too. We had a lot or rice rockets running up and down the roads doing wheelies at 90 and looking alot like the guy in the clip, but that seems to have slowed. Of course it might have gotten around that some of them went "splat" too. Emu....for a minute, with all the round-abouts, i thought the video might be "down-under". I still recall my first encounter with one outside the airport at Canberra....I almost went into it the wrong way . It was a bit different driving on the other side of the road , but you get used to it pretty quick. I'd love to go back some day. We're starting to use more and more to ease traffic flow and accidents, but i think we make ours too small. cass   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #131349 Helmut (User) If you can't be young be immature Expert Boarder Posts: 421 Re:140 and Busted! 3 Years, 7 Months ago   Readthe sentencing it is great. We need that kind of justice in our countries. Bravo to the English   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #131351 cass (User) If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Expert Boarder Posts: 477 Re:140 and Busted! 3 Years, 7 Months ago   I love the sentencing....two years suspended prison term, two years suspended license...and costs. kind of funny he worked at a motorcycle dealer...the officer was probably so calm because "He's British"....they always seem to keep their cool no matter whats going on.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #131385 Liquid_Edge (User) I'd Rather Be Riding Expert Boarder Posts: 568 Re:140 and Busted! 3 Years, 7 Months ago   Well I'd say theres more to the story than what they said. Check how the "cop" handles the curves and the speed and rides just like the other rider. If I had to guess and its purely a guess I would say that its not a cop at all. Cops use any resource at their disposal. Poor Johnny who's on his third offense and needs a miracle to stay out of jail would fit the bill nicely. We need you to follow this bike Johnny. What better way to catch a rogue rider than with a rogue rider. They do it all the time in other things. Drug dealers turned informant, rocketeers turned police chase boy. I like the sentencing though. good job.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #131415 cass (User) If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Expert Boarder Posts: 477 Re:140 and Busted! 3 Years, 7 Months ago   interesting scenerio....guess it could happen. I think it was a great piece of riding even if it wasn't a cop. Wouldn't he have to have been or, wouldn't that individual be in violation also? Better than a hollywood chase scene. lol   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #131418 Pop Rivet (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3123 Re:140 and Busted! 3 Years, 7 Months ago   Liquid_Edge wrote: Well I'd say theres more to the story than what they said.

I like the sentencing though. good job. Good imagination... The motorcycle cops up here in Canada are very well trained and many have chosen the profession cause they have a long history of racing bikes privately etc...most of them will dance their bikes .and leave you behind with just a lil ol ticket..   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/10/19 15:25 By Pop Rivet.   2009 Ultra Classic HD...2005 Silverado Road Star MY WEBSITE HOG HEAVEN Listen to the Road Star   The administrator has disabled public write access. #131422 Frank_W (User) Riding The Filthy Sow!

I just don't want cops on bikes that don't at all look like cops and their bikes don't at all look like cop bikes.. not like a ghost car, but with no flashing lights, decals, etc.. nothing. Don't like the thought of that, takes away whatever advantage "we the people" may have.   Logged     \"When I looked at this thread, I was thinking to myself; I sure hope I get to see an image that will burn itself into my brain and spend the rest of my life trying to repress it.
