My service man told me yesterday that cops are coming down on any bikes with a radar detector. My understanding is, detectors are not illegal yet. Does anyone have any info to add please??

What is this all about?
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have you found? The same old fears.

Yeah, what happened to making detectors illegal? I thought that was meant to come in last April.
Some things are worth dying for, living is one of them.
Double shot!!

That's pretty dangerous. Probably more so than kids throwing bricks off of motorway over-bridges.

It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

With the right equipment quite easily actually
If you've got a radar detector, you WILL get a ticket.
If you're cruising at 100andwhatever, and a cop radars you before you see them, detector goes off, brakes come on, speed washes fast - this can all be seen by the cop. It's PFO you've got a detector. Usually your speed is washed off after the lock is on though.

Isn't this what you do if you see a cop and don't have a detector anyway?

I think the correct phrase is "going down"

The operation of a good detector is not dependent on the operator seeing the cop.

All of the latest top of the line radar detectors should be radar-detector detector proof anyway.
Unless you`re being hit with an instant on, you have more than enough time to slow up without any hard out panic braking.

Speed kills! My GPS unit tells me exactly how fast I am travelling, I never exceed the posted limit. Speed kills!
