i highly doubt the guy knew he was tagged at over 200 mph...

prob just figured it was a routine stop... not knowing big brother had an eye in the sky...

thats some bullshit...

get a radio that can recieve police calls... if its legal in your area of course :)
 
Unless the cop on the ground clocked him at 205 MPH, then that ticket could be easily fought.

I swear, Your Honor, there's no way I was going over 175. :lol:
 
This was posted over on the bike board I chill at...


i
If he started the stopwatch .5 seconds too late due to delayed reflexes and stopped it .5 seconds too early due to overanticipation, that would create a 40mph discrepancy.



Anyways, bottom line he was doing over 100mph and will get a ticket for that =)

He should tell the judge he's never been able to get it over 180mph no matter how hard hes tried=)

Honda 1000RR will not break 200mph I think the busa is the only 200+ MPH bike ever made

unless turboed =)

this is what I'm thinking... clocking by hand depends on reaction time, which with that short of time can be off by quite a bit.
 
a properly traind cop can estimate speed by eye plus or minus 10 with a stop watch doing it evryday he know what he is doing and the judge will bend him over
 
when judging the speed of 10-20mph over YES but hes NEVER EVER tried to time a bike doing 205mph thats tripple the speed hes use to giving tickets for

btw if hes so great at it how the hell did he get him for doing 205mph? once again no honda 1000RR will touch that speed anytime soon
 
This is apparently from the guy who got the ticket:

All right, I was the one who got the ticket and it is time to
clear some
things up. For one, I was riding a 2003 Honda RC51, "heavily
modified" with
2 Brothers slip on pipes and, well thats all the mods I have
unless you
count the "I stop for wh***s" sticker. Next, the bike wasn't
impounded, it
was towed so it wouldn't be in the roadway. Ok, on to the
tickets. 205...uh
no. I am personal friends with the owner of "Hitman Motorsports"
and
tonight, Sept. 22, we did a top speed run on his dyno, in 6th
gear, and
maxed nearly 60mph slower than I was arrested for. The "no
motorcycle
endorsement" is because my licence was expired, I do have a
motorcycle
endoresement for all you people digging into me about that. The
stop watch
method may be accurate at times, but this is un-conceivable for
my
motorcycle to approach 205. Honda's RC211v, which is Honda's
MotoGP race
bike, 5 cyclinders and 268 horespower, just broke 200mph on the
track within
the last week. And we are talking about a 1/2 to 3/4 million
dollar bike.
And for you gear-heads, I had on Joe Rocket Boots, Shoei helmet,
Leather
gloves, Ballistic coat, and leather bottoms. Also, both of us
were arrested,
and no, the slower one did not get a warning, he was ticketed for
111mph on
a F4i. I hope this clears things up for everybody, I am just sick
of
everyone saying things about what they dont know, making me look
like this
horrific person. People speed, and if anyone knows anything about
the "Flood
Run" (which was the ride I was on, which by the way benefits the
Gillettes
Children Fund) I would be a hell of a lot more concerned about
the 7,000
bar-hopping motorcyclist out on the road. 99% of the people you
hear things
from are misinformed. If you have questions, I will answer them.
And one
last note, this is information you don't know, the pilot who
clocked me, was
clocking me, the F4i, and flying his plane at 110mph all at the
same time.
Think about that for a second.
