worst ticket i ever got was on a yamaha r6 i used to have. if anyone knows where the long beach airport is in long beach, california, theres a nice tunnel in between 2 main streets, and 2 on ramps to a freeway right after the tunnel. well i cut the lanes in about 2nd gear and timed it so i cut it right into a green light. well right after hitting the crosswalk i tucked and opened that puppy up. SCREAMIN all the way thru the tunnel. i had a yoshimura full pipe so i couldnt hear anything but the wind and my motor. 80..90..100..110..120..130..passed the onramps and hit the light at the other side....
well i didnt know, but apparently a cop had light me up right as i passed the intersection before the tunnel... i would have known this but i was in full tuck so i couldnt see in my mirrors.. this cop hops out of the car with his gun out yelling "GET OFF THAT BIKE TAKE THE KEY OUT TAKE THAT DAMN HELMET OFF SIT ON THE CURB NOWWWWWWW!!!!!!!" im like oh snap aight no problem officer... hes yellin "YOU GOT A DEATH WISH SON, YOU COULDA KILLED YOURSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE!! HOW FAST WERE YOU GOING?!?!?" lol i said "i dunno a hundred? i have a bigger sprocket so my speedo is off..." he instantly said "******** I WAS DOING A HUNDRED AND YOU WERE STILL PULLING ON ME!!! YOUR LUCKY I DIDNT THINK YOU WERE TRYING TO EVADE ME!!!" cuz of the onramps right there... speed limit on that particular road is 45.. he told me he could have impounded my bike took my license and gave me a whole slew of other fines... i lucked out completely because i guess he got another call, and just wrote me up for a regular speeding ticket.... **** still ended up about 450 bucks because i had got a red light ticket and some other bs ticket in about a 4 or 5 month period... this was the last one and it was a big penny. i dont know if you guys ever rode sport bikes, but god damn those things are fun |

This past July, the ticket was for 64 in a 40 mph zone. The officer said I was going almost 70 but he only wrote the ticket for just under the MPH where he would impound my car and make me go to court. (25 mph = go to court, 30mph = impound car) - so I got off with a $200 ticket and that was that. Insurance didn't even see the ticket (they said so when I asked about Z insurance) because it was my first one ever.
Jeep Grand Cherokee... I was going the opposite direction from the cop. He said "I turned my radar on when I saw you because you were VISIBLY going fast!" -- sure enough my fuzzbuster didn't go on until he flipped his on when we rounded a hill. Thought only laser was that fast, but he had three readings on his device - 67 mph, 68, mph, 69mph

I hear you. After having sport bikes (gixxer 1K, and hayabusa) (and doing a ton of track days)...everything else seems to be in slow motion. That's my problem with the Z. Doing 100+ feels so slooooow. Been getting my fix on some 100+MPH off/on ramps early AM or late PM...think it's a short matter of time before the Z sees the track. |
