things to remember "

140 kph - you walk
look twice for boys in blue if ya gonna thang it
dont be a prat when busted as it can make a difference in court
dosnt matter how nice you are , no discretion means just that
groups of bikes .... safety in numbers - weak get picked off first
wifes wraft worse than disqualification , feel the heat from her eyes on the back of my neck when was in the dock
be nice to ya kids as one day you need them to ''drop you off on the way''
get a lump in your throat when on motorway you see other bikes .... so unfair

good things are :

tyres last at least 6 months
bike real easy to clean .... no suicidal bugs clinging on
they wernt there when you were doing 220 kph
.................
.................
................
thats bout it .

its only 6 months .... would have been better in the winter but WTF .

i just gota accept that im a recidivist speedster

I used to be like that, but now I haven't exceeded the speed limit since . . . well, since I got home yesterday afternoon. Well, I currently have no demerits on my licence so obviously I have stopped . . . getting caught, so far at least.

My advice on not getting done for speeding: do what I've been doing for the last couple of years - be lucky!

Yes, but if you are referring to "the ultimate price", then according to the law then that is the same whether you are doing 105km/h or 205 km/h, or even 54 km/h in some places.

I abide by not riding faster than my guardian angel can fly, I also stick to the rules as much as possible, but occasionally find myself going a little over the red ringed number.

Lets not talk the ultimate price, that usually happens when dickheads run from the cops

Time and place.

You lose your licence if you are caught exceeding any posted speed limit by more than 40 km/hr ... This includes temporary speed limit areas such as roadworks zones. AND passing school buses that have stopped to pick up/drop off passengers (20 km/hr speed limit passing them) so in effect ... you can lose your licence (for speeding) by exceeding 60 km/hr on the open road in a 100 km/hr area ...

If ya gunna "thang it" look and KEEP looking ... and odds are ... you still wont see them untill the disco lights come on ...

By all means be a "prat" ... it gives them all the more reasons to look for "things" they didn't stop you for ...

Discretion is still up to the officer ... and depending on many factors relating to the offence you were stopped for ... may be applied .... just don't be a "prat" ... for the reason above ...

Groups of bikes safe ... : Good luck with that. I have been on "group rides" when all riders were stopped, lectured ... and issued a ticket ... officers "descretion" applies ...

Wife's wrath ... don't worry .... you have six months to get used to it ... if she hangs around that long ...

Be nice to your kids .... they may come in handy in your old age ... if you live that long ...

Life is seldom "fair" ... get over it ...

[malfunconz]

it happens though , doing a runner can cost dearly . i have done it myself , got away to tell the tale ,easy 100 in a 50 kph area , just luck he was on other side of road and there was a long bend between me and two turn offs so he was blind sided , heard him cane it down the road after me whilst i sat silent with fingers crossed down side street . get in big doodoo's if caught . knew area well , if not i would have just pulled over and taken the grief .

Dude, I hope you don't ride like you type, cos you are ALL OVER THE PLACE!!

Is this a new thing? Because last time I read the road code it was an instant loss of license (walking for 28 days) if you exceeded the normal speed limit by 40kph or exceeded a temporary speed limit my 50kph.

discretion .

I know a certain lad that often frequents these forums who was well clocked at about 240 kph, but was booked for 139 because the cop was a biker too.
Twas on a KB ride of course.
Some choose to exercise discretion regardless of what the rules say
