WTF??? Do we live in America or Russia???

Quote: The most common state police tactic is to accuse a motorcyclist of a felony, initiate the seizure proceeding, then drop the charges. This allows police get to keep the sport bike without the effort of a court battle or the danger of a not guilty verdict. Even an innocent motorcyclist will think twice about fighting an an unjust seizure since the felony charges carry jail time and a permanent black mark on more than just the driving record.

It's almost a double edge sword here. If you are speeding, they can just show up and take your bike based on what they say you did? Isn't that circumstantial? Rediculous!

Glad I don't live in Florida and ride a bike. Which sucks because that's the place I'd want to be right now riding. It's cold and snowing here in central ny.

I dont run and I usually dont go insane fast but it still worries me because it becomes their word against yours.
