Runner!! blue 99-03 r1/r6

You don't recognise tongue firmly planted in cheek when you see it

No some of the examples I've had explained to me I don't think this is tongue in cheek stuff. I hope it is. I have very close connections to people who work along them daily and it is naive to assume that the Police have not changed and are on a downhill slide in respectibility they are a reflection on the slide of everything else. Look at the three on trial at the moment, not a good look for the Police. Getting off thread tho. The point a simple bike doing a runner ,if you can simplify it like that. Plod feels the need for a bit of satisfaction because some one didn't respect his station in life.
Don't fancy being Tazered when I get old cos I'm deaf and didn't hear the policeman telling me to get out of the car NOW.

rofl, good point mate! I should've known it would be hard taking corners when your swingarm is 3m away from the frame... doesnt help when your valve head is on a shelf, the crankcase on a bench, and the rest of your engine sitting quietly in a bout 500 pieces in a cupboard.

A real biker would find a way to make it run biarch.

Meh, Bikey Cop is human too...just a sense of humor...certainly not a bad thing. Mate of mine was running in a cage, hit 280kph too (Very worked S14, wont mention details as it is a wel known car) and when he got off the motorway from his run from the initial plod, he was smacked around a bit, handcuffed and chucked in a cell for the next 2 days till he was somewhat subdued.
Fact is, running is a pretty serious thing to do (in the cops eyes anyway...lets face, who likes someone to run away and outrun them!) so if ya cop it, wear it!
However, back in South Africa in the old days, my Grandad who raced and loved bikes put a police siren on his bike, would flick it on and go past the local cop shop, flick on the siren and stand on his tank as he went past the local constabulary. They would, without fail, chase him. However, they knew who he was, never caught him, but also never really treated it like it was too much of a misdemeanour.

Bit of a balance between the two situations would be good.

And exactly what use is a dog handler when trying to catch a motorbike? Perhaps a better questions is exactly why would you need one when the man/woman in question just gave themselves up?

Question 1: Very handy when the runner ditches their vehicle and does another runner on foot.

Question 2: They don't always have the sense to give up.

Sorry guy's I wasn't making a personal attack at Bikey Cop, just at what's happened, there is not a lot of respect out there for the Boys in Blue anymore. Well not like there use to be 10 15 years ago maybe even back to the "Tour". If it seems like cop bashing its not intended to.

Bit disturbing hearing a statement like that from you. Do you get the odd boot in, bit of extra pepper spray in occassionally . Bet you can't wait to try the Tazer ? uuummmm wonder about plod at times working for pleasure.

True true can't have them working for bugger all money and no pleasure. That just wouldn't be right.

despite how cool ghostrider (not you n4cr - so shush it now) looks doing a runner most people aren't out to simply "make a dvd" (no mark comments wanted either).

yeah im fvckin cool bro, fvck the pigs i'll make a 300k motorway run dvd some time wheelies and **** go piss of some pigs and stuff liek that, runners are interesting it's you getting ****ed up the arze or some pig getting to file a report aboiut a bike that got away (they do it anyway if you cought or nowt), i choose them filing a report. $150 i'd run if it was an easy one and i knew the area although it's not demerits.. hmm. idont run reds either... sh1t if you get caught on an r6 you deserver it, if you get away on a zxr250 then an r6 is a piece of p1ss learn how to ride and run fvcktard whoever it was.
