God your butt will be on fire!! As you well know 999s are two wheeled Bar-b-que pits. I don't even ride mine this time of year. I think that's what made me sterile! Hey, at least I keep the cobwebs off mine!

so sad.  I ride mine EVERY DAY.  Man up, Brian!!

I'm old and weak and you know how sensitive I am. Besides this is the bullshit thread isn't it?

A lot of lurkers...  That's BULLSHIT!


Post up

2 tickets in one weekend! With the HC shenanigns, that makes 4 in one month. 

How am I ever going to afford a 1098s (because I need more speed) when I'm spending all my money battling speeding tickets! The gods of paradox and irony have evidently chosen me as their poster boy. What'd I ever do to them!

When did you get the other 2?

• one yesterday in the cage on the GB
• one an hour ago on the bike in Grapevine

it's not my fault my brain processes things faster and I can't stand going slow. all my life I've been told to slow up for other people (mostly in bed  ) and it's really cramping my style. 

Ouch that sucks man... Quit getting pulled over by the LEOs and save your pennies for that sick 1098

Me too, ouch bro'! You know I conditioned my brain several years ago to not speed at all in the cage and for that matter I will not go faster than traffic pace in town. I refuse to get some bullshit 10-20 over ticket in town. No way. I love it when Schumacher Jrs. blow past me because they can run point for me all day long. Let them get the hickey. Whether on bike or cage I putter in town and on the hwys. If I get a ticket let it be 160+ on a 2 lane out in the country not 50 in a 35 in town. If I get it I probably deserve it. But the last speeding ticket I got was in 1988 on a GSXR750 on 455 between Celina and Anna on a Saturday AM. Thankfully it was only a 89 in a 55 because right before that turn I was running 135+!! Again, ouch man!

When municipalities shorten the time of a yellow light to a nanosecond so they can " enhance revenues " from redlight cameras - that's B.S!

Running a redlight could not have been my fault - I NEVER do that - I'm simply avoiding being rear-ended ( no Brokeback jokes please ) maybe I'm occasionally a little late on a yellow light !  The city of Dallas has stills and video however that prove that to be bullshit !

Will, I feel your pain.  I ended up with two in two weeks - one on the bike, one in the cage.  I'd been able to avoid speeding tickets for eight years before that (yeah, O.K., five of those years were in the Philippines.  Managed to get pulled over only once there but I think it was only because the local constabulary wanted to get a better look at my shit hot, baby puke green '72 VW Beetle... I mean it couldn't have been anything else - speeding in a Beetle? Seriously.  Must've looked like a terrorist).

So, speeding tickets seem to come all at once for me is the point (yes friends, there was a point in all that) so hopefully these will be your last for a while.

On my drive to work this morning I counted 6 people pulled over at various stages of the commute.  The LEOs seem to be out in force this week and we all know it'll be worse over the weekend.  Be careful out there and watch out for the fuzz

yeah...same going home last night from alan's place...before i even hit I20 i saw three people pulled over on 35W, two more on I20, and one on 35E.  i think i did 70 the whole way home...'cause that's how i roll...   

sucks about the tickets, though, man...  i once had my license taken away for a 'lil bit, so i feel your pain.  SR22 insurance sucks balls     hope your tickets don't amount to too much  $$

I didn't see anyone pulled over on my way in today,
...but I was late, doing tripple digits -so I probably wouldn't have noticed...   

I have also lost my license in the past for excessive multiple speeding voilations...
I don't recommend that.

I'm passing word on to everyone to be careful  the po-po is out   

this is the end of the month and they have to make the quota!!

Why stop for po-po when you're on your bike?  Just run.  We can outrun everything.  I learned that in Squid School 101.

I never get tickets on the bike, because I never stop.  I never get tracked down because I cleverly hide my license plate waaaay up under the seat (also learned in SS101). 

C'mon - be real men (and women) and run from the law!  You're supposed to be Ducati hooligans, not a bunch of nancy-boys with shit hot bikes.
