Your point? Who is he to judge him? I'm sure he's perfect and has never broken a law probably just like yourself. My point is to me he looks like an idiot for having a quote saying he would like to kill himself in his sig.

Sorry to hear that spritle. The other day 3 of my friends got arrested for underage consumption...we got to bail them out. They met several interesting people as well.
Ok when we do our high speeds run there is no one around and also another reason my buddy doesn't have a plate is because they do wheelies and cops dont like that if your going to comment on how it's stupid to do 120 well go comment on every single video of people toping their cars out like all the cobra vids doing 160. Oh here you can call me and my buddies stupid beause a week ago we topped out all of our cars two cobras a ws6 dodge r/t 240sx with motor swap.
I am by no way condoning (sp?) my actions. However, on those bikes, 120mph isn't that fast or at least it doesn't seem that fast. Anyone who has ridden them for a while knows what I'm talking about. You think you're going one speed until you look down. Yeah earphones are a bad idea, for anyone. I just get tired of hearing nothing but wind noise for a couple hours.
First timer with no record, I'll probably just get a fine, no jail.

Buh Bye !
Lol, I like the sound of a bike. I've heard that you really don't feel the speed on a bike like you would on a sled or some other open toy.
My friend had a Triumph Daytona 995i, damn did that thing sound good.

I was going to mention that. 120 in a 65 may sound pretty bad, but when you think about it, its not that fast anymore. As technology gets better and cars are being made better, they are getting faster. Just look at all the new mercedes, some have about 460-600hp stock, and they drive so smooth. 120 feels like 70. Even our 03 cobras with an old chassis feel very stable even over 140.
But this is what the officers don't take into account. The flow of traffic is usually faster than the speed limit. I was driving on the interstate a while ago and the speed limit was 70 I believe, I think I was going 85-90. I know 20mph over sounds bad. But no one was going 70, everyone was going 80. So I was barely passing some people. I was just cruising in the left lane. I wasnt doing anything reckless at all, but if a cop clocked me he would have given me a ticket for 20 over. But really I was doing 5-10mph over what the flow of traffic was.
Everyone does stupid things and has to live with the consequences of their actions. Spritle has done just that. He admitted his mistake and will pay the price for his actions. He isnt saying the cops were wrong or anything. So where is the problem?
Yeah that's exactly what I said. Wait no. How about I just not pay attention to your post as its just flame bait. So here's a cookie for you.
Yes since I am the one that turned left across 6 lanes of traffic on a red light to be hit by a truck and then hit by an SVT driving 44mph who had absolutely no chance of avoiding collision.
You can take the song quote however you want, but that's not what it means to me.
Never have I gone 120 miles per hour in a 60 mile per hour zone while wearing headphones. Nor have I taken off my license plate and run away from police officers.
Yes I did. Wasn't on city streets either. (Hint: testing circuit) Point?
haha.
Perfectly content that I know you and others in this thread have no idea what you are talking about.
Last word is yours.
I am a long-time motorcycle rider and have to agree with the term "idiot" to describe your actions.
Not only are you going 50 mph faster than traffic surrounding you but you also give the rest of us responsible and long-term riders a bad name and cause the police to have it "in" for all of us..
I don't care if the bike can do 120 mph safely, I ride the Gulf Freeway all the time and thats totally irresponsible speed.
Since the new traffic laws went into affect on October 1st, you will be lucky if you don't lose your license for a year and face about a $500 fine at minimum.
Oh, and one more thing - the DA will prosecute that kind of behavior.
Especially in Galveston County..

Settle down people geezus. Like NONE of you have ever sped before. He admitted what he did was illegal, and didn't complain about getting popped, so what's the big deal? Give the guy a break. For most of you, maybe going 120 on a bike is a big deal, to me it's not. I cruised I45 at 120 all the time, so what? I never got caught, but if I did I'd take it like a man, just like he did. As far as the earphones thing, a lot of riders where them. At highway speeds with a helmet you don't really hear much but windnoise anyways. Lots of people will also wear earplugs because the wind noise is too much. Nothing wrong with wearing headphones while riding.
Bash all you want, none of you are perfect so just stfu.l
