If cars are passing you doing 80 MPH....ride at 79 MPH.

Last time in Milwaukee, I had a nice talk with one of their finest doing duty near the HD Museum. We talked a lot about his laser and how well it worked (on bikes in particular). A good officer can pick a bike out of a crowd of vehicles. I tried his unit an could clock bikes at 100+ yds. Definitely a trick to holding on target but with a little practice, it can be done.

I look at it this way. If you want one get it.
In 40 years on the road with a truck i have run one for 30+ of them. They were home made back then No problems. One time in VA i had a cop look for it very hard Never did find it. Same as a 150watt linear amp on the CB the big bad feds are going to get yah...Nope not going to happen.
No different than if i want to run 85-90 at nite or want to gross 100,000 + LBS and go around the scales with no permits. Gonna do it no matter what the law.
Its not hurting anybody so you can recite all the fed laws in the books it don't matter. Yep its also illegal to carry in NYC but still gonna do it.
After you get a bit old the fed scare don't work anymore
Gotta go build a Jammer for the bike now to match my illegal pipes and stereo

Being a former LEO and a Funeral Director for the past 25 years I have seen my share of motorcyclists in the horizontal position at the scene and at the Mortuary. Not a pretty sight when flesh hits metal and concrete at 60 MPH.

I stay away from the packs and avoid the Poker Runs...think and drive save..just me and my cents.

Years ago I found that I was becoming complacent and trusting of my radar detector. I'm sure they're a lot better these days, but I got tired of having to slow down for the automatic doors in the Walmart that I was passing lol.

I got rid of the detectors and haven't had a ticket since. I've found that the best 'anti ticket' device is my brain. I no longer glue myself to the left lane if I'm not passing someone and I stay 3-5 mph slower than the fastest car. I don't care if a guy wants to pass me when I'm already doing 75. I just use him as bear bait. You wanna pass me and go faster, be my guest. The chances are that I'll be passing you a little later, without having to speed up. lol

Two days ago, I had a guy in a big black Navigator riding my bumper at 75 mph. He flashed his lights at me, I stayed put. I was in the middle land of a 5 lane hiway. He got pissed and floored it around me, giving me the finger as he passed. What he apparently didn't know was that we were passing where a well known trooper (with radar) always sits. I watched the trooper put the gun down and pull out. Yep, a mile down the road that impatient Navigator was wasting time sitting on the shoulder.

It's just easier to use our brains rather than depend on a device to save our butts.

CONFESSION: Yeah I'm a Trooper. Retire at the end of this year. I'm a speeder too. I have paid 27 speeding tickets in my life time. All of them were for less than 30 over. (My first three cars did not have a working speedometer.) All but one I deserved, but there were many more times I didn't get one that I should have so I'm ahead of the game, and I'm not complaining! Haven't paid any since I figured out I couldn't fight "them", and I "joined" them! (That was in 1983) Kind of worried about how things are going to go after retirement. I don't do anything dangerous, but I routinely find myself, on 4 lane divided highways with little or no traffic, looking down and finding myself cruising in the 90 -95 MPH range. It doesn't feel like I'm going that fast, but I am!!! I'm not in a hurry usually, just feels good to twist that throttle and scoot on down the road! After 30 years in LE I'd hate to go out and buy a detector or jammer, but I still make money with the CDL and I need to protect it, so a man has got to do what a man has to do! (I don't have any plans to purchase any ticket avoiding devices....but if a real good affordable one came on the market, and I can't correct my bad habits........?????)
