If you have had as much practise riding as she has you would be leaking....

If you can't operate a motorcycle within the law on public roads perhaps its time to stop using it on public roads?

Maybe that should say:
If ya can operate a motorcycle within the law on public roads perhaps it's time to live in a resthome

To be fair, it is fairly easy to operate a Hyosung 250 within the law on public roads....



(Not: For easily offended Hyosung owners - This is a piss take...)

I totally agree. I cannot do long distance unless sat at 140 ish (or at least in the 120-140 bracket. 100 feels like walking pace, you get tired, easily distracted because of the boredom etc.. and before you know it, you DIE.

I quoted your post, then someone elses, but first forgot to comment on your post that I quoted. I went into edit and added my comments - seems they went in the post rather than after the post. my bad.

Which is why the whole sentence read: The cops can tell if you are using (some) detectors with radar detector- detectors built into their radar units (VG2 technology), though most top end detectors have anti-VG2 technology so in theory are undetectable. As far as I am aware NZ police do not have VG2 at this time.

Ummm ... my sentence was shorter. Was just confirming the fact that we don't have em.

PS: I believe it WAS on but action beats reaction.

Never a truer word... unless you are a KBer who can react quicker than a radar beam .

Thats why the other weapon in the riders arsenal should be the runner... take action and run.. and watch the old copper react!!

Runners for teh WiN!

radars + runners > rozza's

Ginga gets wound up by that sort of thing. Hence the targeting of motorbikes perhaps?

They can not lock you down when you are decreasing speed as fast as these bikes can stop.

Absolute BS. You only got lucky with an inexperienced operator.

You can not react quicker than the push of one button, twice. (Transmit/Lock is the same button). The decrease in speed moments AFTER the speed is locked is an absolute certain giveaway that theres a radar detector on board....

Had one guy ask for a "re-test" of a very expensive unit after a ticket once. Pinged him again, beating his reaction. He checked my locked speed, took out the detector and threw it onto the ground. Saying what a waste of money.

Money wasters is right, if the radar operator is good at it....

Did you give him a bonus ticket for littering?

Went up to Palmy today to check out some new boots (AlpineStars S-MX R may be the winner), and once again the trusty Ecort 8500 saved the day.

belltronic sti, is great, but i am on my 3rd one all on warrenty, i have all the bits also, nobody else seems to have that problem tho, it just says service required, and they cant service them so send me a new one, 90% of the time is on my bike, thats 3 in under a year and i dont use my bike alot only fine weekends.

dont the police have to be in under 500meters away to ping you legally?
iv always wondered at this day and age can you go to jail for speeding? if your doing nothing else wrong? eg..300, i know its a crazy speed that i havnt done but if you were can you go to jail?
