I'm sorry, but if a crotch-rocket pulls up behind me with flashing lights, I'd be more tempted to lose him than stop for him!

You may be a skilled driver... but I don't think you're going to lose a Busa, if the rider has *any* clue whatsoever...Rick Rock wrote:I'm sorry, but if a crotch-rocket pulls up behind me with flashing lights, I'd be more tempted to lose him than stop for him!

Damn right... you might outrun the Ford, Chevy, DCX, etc. But it's hard to beat the Motorola, MACOM, etc.mr.syntrx wrote:I love this comment:

Honestly probably one of the better installs I have seen, just because they were able to cram everything on a bike like that...even the radar.

I have a busa in the garage, minus the radar and radio gear.
It is quite a ride!

Has OHP finally implemented their Motorola Type II 800 system yet, or are they still running lowband?

Most of the Tulsa area is on Type II trunking, Some of the rural areas are still on Vhf.

When I lived in Australia I had an unmarked car pull up behind me and hit me with the lights. The cop got out and he was Vietnamese which was highly unusual at the time.Rick Rock wrote:I'm sorry, but if a crotch-rocket pulls up behind me with flashing lights, I'd be more tempted to lose him than stop for him!
I speed off and lost them. I was later found by a marked car and the reason I gave was there are are lot of vietnamese gangs operating nearby and I thought it was a fake policeman in a stolen uniform as I had never heard of a vietnamese policeman before.
Aparently they thought I was bying drugs which is why the first went for the stop.
The second lot of police were pure Aussie and laughed their heads off at my excuse and let me go.
I went back to Melbourne a couple of years ago after about 13 years away and every other cop was vietnamese. I left two weeks later back to adopted country.
I guess you'll just have to get usesd to cops on pocket rockets as the cpeople of Melbourne have to cops of other nationalities.

Even with the Moto, a skilled rider will be on your tail with a 'Busa anyway...radio or not.mr.syntrx wrote:I love this comment:

Dang; I'm not suprised that they have cash to throw around out there. It cost me about $37 to drive through the state when i went to Texas earlier this year. The Will Rogers is definately a nice road but pricey.
