Travelling SH1 today i saw a 999 with a horrid sounding pipe doing a rather fast run (i estimate a good 180kmh) heading North at Manakau passing a truck well on my side of the double yellows . Plain coloured helmet , as already said , a really horrible sounding exhaust and then i saw why he was riding like he was , ..... a Highway Patrol car with lights and sirens hammering it to try and catch up. The bike had a Dealer yellow plate on and this dude was just a fool with what i saw. I hope he is not going to make a habit of riding the same strech of highway like he seems to be doing as im sure the Police will do whats needed to take this guy of the road.
Seriously folks , i like to ride fast but this guy was doing no favours to any of us and i applaude the Police in thier desire to see him stopped.

A ducati with a horrible sounding exhaust?? Didn't know there was such a thing..... Well it wasn't my 999 (and I have a plain helmet too). Best I stay off SH1 for a while just in case they are after any red 999... Have to ride to Hamilton on Thursday...might go SH2 instead now.
Saw the thread title a few days back and thought na wont bother,finally gave in and yep pretty much as i predicted.No work for me in the morning so lets go,ive got a box of bourbon.........entertain me.
