First question - that thing have a speedometer??
Yessir.
Does it work??
Yessir.
You were hitting 95.
Yessir, sorry about that.
License and insurance card please.
Says 2006 SuperGlide here.
Yessir, it's an 06.
WHAT HAPPENED to it??
I like to build sh it, sir.
So, he proceeds to circle my machine for about ten minutes.
The VIN gonna match these papers??
Yessir, the numbers are on this side.
What kinda exhaust is that??
Vance and Hines, sir.
How loud is it??
I don't know, want me to start it up??
Yeah.
then after about a second and a half -
Shut it off. Yeah, it's loud.
Where's the mufflers??
The baffles are inside, sir.
Law says mufflers, not baffles.
I can't see your license plate sticker.
What's it say??
November, sir.
Well, I can't see it from here.
As another five minutes of lecture proceeds, I am tabulating the damage.
Tickets in Tejas ain't cheap.
150-200 for each infraction.
I figure I'm at about 7-800 already.
The stealth cops here pride themselves on multiple infraction incidents.
So, then he hands my paperwork back to me,
and says -
"you need to slow it down a bit".
no tickets.... zero.
Here's some pix of my 06 SuperGlide Joe:
