    I ran once but only because
    -they had a car, and a bike will easily lose a car in Tokyo traffic
    -the next couple of lights were green
    -they were only trying to stop me for an illegal u-turn
    -number plates here are hard to read quickly because they have small kanji on them

    I think if any of these were not the case I might have stopped. The first is probably the most important - I would never try to run from a bike cop.

    this is all bs, how could a cop be chasing you without ever seeing your rego, what would you be running from in that case? a policeman 5 cars back who wasn't even after you anyways?

    sounds like a theory from someone stupid enough to do a runner anyways

    I only run if the bacon has not seen my plate. The way I see it, I got a lot of reasons to run... the fines.. the impound and the lack of transport to work etc etc etc... Would also have to be doing something pretty stupid though. If I was doing 61k in a 50 then I would stop... but (dare I say it) if I left my other brain cell at home and was being stupid... and was doing "lose license" speeds then I make the call to run or stop.

    Helps to have a spare helmet too... wear it for a few days after a "run" ..not that i've needed to
    Why don't you just pill over and give the cop some man love that you were raving about on another thread? You could wear the winning T Shirt in your own compition "I'm a man love machine, hear me snore"

    Or dress up like the true star of 'The Village People' and join the force. You'd blend right in.

    So, so true!!!

    But those that post here with one hand on their cock and their eyes out of focus will assume (well, they can't think) that it applies to everybody but themselves.

    heh, I think your kidding, but...

    Unless you have just robbed a bank or something, or your so full of yourself you think Michael Schumacher is a slow bastard... if you have to think about doing a runner from a cop then I don't think it matters what kind of machine you ride or drive, or how fast it is, ( assuming it's not a complete slug) you probably will end up not doing it. I think for most runners it's purely an unreasoned and impulsive reaction. And if you do do it, chances are you wont even imediately realize the Oh Shit! situation your in until you check your mirrors and get an ear full of siren. At least thats how it was when I tried to burn off a MOT patrol car in my clapped out FD Vauxhall Victor when I was a dumbfuk 17 year old.
