Anyone who goes that fast deserves what they get, I'm sorry, but I always think of my family being around some idiot doing that on the roads.[:@] Sorry nothing personal, but I'm just saying.

Deej, you only say that because your mole bike won't go that fast! j/k Like I said... It's the chance you take when you make a conscious decision to go that fast.

Atleast he didn't run. The story could of ended up bad. My bikes previous owner was a cop. That's scary because you know he's not getting a ticket!

Hey alexanderm,I'm sorry if I sounded harsh, I just want everyone to stay safe, so I hope I didn't make you mad. Alsono offense to anyone who smokes, I hope I didn't offend anyone, in fact I don't think less of anyone who smokes, I was just trying to make a comparison. Just ignore me tonight. Carry on.

ORIGINAL: alexanderm
So over the weekend I got pulled over on the freeway doing 112 in a 55. The cop suspended my license right there and told me I'm lucky I'm not getting arrested. I have an April 17th court date in the city of Virginia Beach and the cop said I am probably going to do time, which I think is BS because I'm not a criminal. I plan on getting a lawyer and taking a safe driving class my friend was telling me about.

I'm not sure what's going to happen to my bike, I'm waiting to find out the results of court on rather I will sell it or not but if my license get's suspended I'll probably get rid of it and not ride again for at least the near future, anyone got any suggestions?
Yeah ... I got a suggestion.

1st do what your lawyer says and say nuthin...you WILL get off light.

2nd getrid ofthe street bike ....and get a ktm 640 adv like mine, it is plenty fun and fast....ever go 90 in sugar sand btw you will never go over 100 on asphalt on this bike with knobbies unless your nut sack belongs in a 55-gallon garbage bag.
