    Eggsactly, that's why you guys get away with so many shoddy tickets. One law for all? One law for the wealthy, more like.

    Thanks for all the advice. I am going to write a letter asking for careless driving instead of dangerous driving and see how I go. If they say no then i'm no worse off as am not denying guilt. Will elt you all now how it goes. Enjoy yourselves out there and think of me riding the bus before opening that throttle wide!

    I managed to get off 111 in a 50. I thought i was in a 70 zone, and I just happened to click on the counter steering thing as I was going round that bend so exited a lot faster than planned.

    Legal reason was uncalibrated radar. It took the skills of a wellington lawer called Des Deacon ($500) so save my day.

    I also planned to mitigate my case by buying and reading MC riding skills books and between the end of my initial 28days and the day in court that never happened sitting an advanced riding course and finaly going to the extreme of swapping my 750 road bike for a slower 650 dual purpose bike. My riding has changed a lot since, the experience has probably saved my life a few times...

    Arrow Meh.

    Everyone has sped at some stage or another who owns a semi-decient sport bike. Its very easy to go faster than intended, I just go by the gear Im in these days and if Im in town its a rather boring riding the CBR. Bugger about getting busted dude, hope it all works out for you.
    Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.
