    I saw the TV1 item and it showed the 'Busa going past the car and said in the commentary that he had been clocked at 142 kph. They then stated that this was a $500 ticket and (as of Monday) a 28 day loss of license.

    Fight back

    With all this "get the speeding hoon" racquet going on, I say fight fire with fire. Might be a good time to get a half decent radar detector, couple of laser jammers and then cruise past 'em all - smiling an

    Propaganda alright...and hypocritical at that...I've seen how safe the cops can behave (not all of them, ofcourse) during a pursuit.

    Yeah, he'd be helpful.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    I personally think it's bullshit. They have absolutely no proof to say that someone was alledgedly doing 330kph

    It was a 'busa. The rider is a local rider who was preparing it for the sprints here at Alex.

    Anecdotal evidence is all that is required to convince a populace inured to the supreme joy that is riding motorcycles.

    It now serves us right when someone dies.

    Needs to get the Laser checked. There are about 20 Busas worldwide that can crack 330km/hr and none of them lack a turbo.

    I smell a rat. A big pungently fermenting rodent. The road safety nazis want the open road speed limit reduced to 90kmh. They don't like bikes much either. This story plus all of the recent bullshit about road tolls, during the news "silly season", has set my conspiracy antennae all a quiver.

    And the state broadcaster is complicit. This is not a news story. There is no evidence, only some cop doing a piece to camera where he says he heard once that some bike was clocked at 330kmh. That may be exactly what he heard. So?

    Front number plates for bikes, new boy racers laws and a 90kmh open road speed limit by Christmas.
