Stopping is the joke IMO

Don't feel bad cmoore. I got 1 month loss for 95 in a 50 in early Sept 08 then another for 145 in a 100 in Nov (about a week after I got it back) so had it taken off me for another month..

Of course the points on the first one put me over (once fine paid) and I instantly lost my licence for another 3 months, and I didn't pay the second one for another two weeks so the points for that one were awarded to me at the start of my (supposodly clean slate) but would have been wiped along with all my other points if I'd paid them all at the same time. FUCK.

and I got another 20 for doing 105 towing a trailer in Jan 09 (the week before I paid the first fine) so I didn't just start with 50 points....... I went for the whole 70 so I'm fucked again

Hope you feel better now

I'm not walking but very close to it, I will check with the cops and see what demerits I'm on, Had tha speeding ticket the other day(139km), a seat belt ticket and a 69km in a 50 in the work ute. Plus 4 or 5 speed camera ones as well (in work ute) lucky they dont count aye.

Ducati for sale !

New bits on way for my road LC and use that and keep away from main roads

If I want to go fast I will do it on the race bike now

**cmoore** · 11th January 2010, 19:07

shit...yes i do...i have just received my traffic record from the police....and i have a CLEAN slate for the last 7 years!!......that must count for something........mind you....i actually enjoyed the bus ride today...reading to and from work is great....i got a good book from the library...Aaron Slight's book....i remember following him but man I had forgotten how awesome he was......who's the next kiwi superbike or GP rider??!!

geez croc....sounds like you sort of cut of your nose to spite your face.....?..but i understand...i refused to even speak to the cop that pulled me over....and i nearly ended up in the cells for it............

**cmoore** · 11th January 2010, 19:23

**cmoore** · 11th January 2010, 20:11

and....(yes im trying to get off the moped rating!!)....when i was young i did a runner three times.......first time i was cutting it hard around some back streets but i didn't know the area and hit a dead end.....i said i didn't see them.....hah!.....the second time i thought i had lost him so slowed down and forgot about it......then he caught me.....bastard....he tried to impound the bike becuase he couldn't belive it was a 650....and the last time i took off and headed to my parents place with the cops in pursuit........I flew down the side of their house in pt chev and jumped off the bike with the cops screaming down the road behind me.....by the time i got off the bike they had run down the path and i was caught and spread eagled against the shed wall.....when they turned me around both my parents where siting on the deck with a sherry in hand watching........

I have to go past 3 schools to get to work. Tickets suck when they are for 54km from a camera van that parks 800mtrs away from a high school !!!
In the work ute its just off 1400rpm at 60km in 5th. I just leave it in 3rd now.

AND according to those electric speed warning signs my speedo at 60km is 51km to there sign, BULLSHIT !!! I got a ticket for doing 60km(on my speedo) of 59km.
DONT trust there speed signs , there only there to set you up with there dodgy low low readings
