real close call.......
So I just moved from MA to NH, I only had my permit in MA. Restrictions are no riding after dark, no passengers, and no out of state riding. Once I get my NH driver's license, my permit is no longer good. I was staring at my bike every day itching to get back on it, after a week and a half I said screw it, and went for a quick ride. Was going 45 in a 40, and the road switched to 30 very quickly, still going 45; I pass a cop. Guy turns the blues on and busts the fastest U-turn I have ever seen. I had to get out of there (or else I get arrested and lose my license) so I dropped a gear and took off, banged down a side street and another one, heart was RACING!! Stopped and got off my bike and waited about 20 minutes till the coast was clear, and went right home. I know I should have gotten my license already, but I was on vacation last week and just wanted to ride when i got back Saturday, can you blame me it was 85 and sunny as hell. Anyways, thats my story, getting my license tomorrow so I'm legal. Anyone have similar stories im sure??

Seriously, i had a friend who did that one night, except he had his license. I was happy that he didn't get in trouble (cause i'm his friend), but at the same time it's guys like him who get the rest of us a bad rep. I've only had a run in with a cop once and he was a real jerk to me, probably figured that since i rode a 'crotchrocket' i must have pulled those stunts all the time. I'm all about having fun, but dont run from the cops. It reflects badly on the rest of us who actually have some self control and at least make an effort to stay out of trouble. I don't mean to flame you, but that's just the way it is, bro.

Damn be careful the NH cops aren't as nice as they are here in MA. You got Lucky this time but be careful doing that. I've just started riding and would be scared ****less to run from the popo's.

CJ,
Please don't post stories about running from the police, there is no place for that stuff here. Thank you. And for those who are considering flaming this member, don't waste your time because I will have very little tolerance for name calling and sarcasm...it doesn't do anything but get everyone riled up. Why waste the energy. Let's just let this thread waste away into oblivion, and everyone will be happy. Thanks everyone!

yea thex is a real tough guy behind a computer screen. Listen pal, I was just telling a story, that was it, no need to be a dick about it. And voodoo, I was just telling what happened, i dipped down a side street, not the end of the world. i was doing nothing wrong, just driving around; I was on unfamiliar roads and it went from 40 to 30 like that. I wasnt about to get arrested and lose my license, I got too much riding on it. Didn't think I was going to get belittled from urself and thex, your not my father, dont tell me what not to post and what to post. Was simply telling an interesting story, I learned a lesson from it for sure, just wanted to talk about it, so let the thread dwindle. f you dont like my post, its simple, dont respond to it!!
