Ive got 2 for yah...but, they are ridiculous in that my fines were low...
sunday morning, 7am, its beautiful outside, im feelin strong, sitting on the entrance ramp to I-55 at Harlem Ave...My buddy is next to me on his Busa (i had a 2002 R1) so, we grin, light changes, we hit it....165mph or better down the long ramp, we back it off, now im cruising 55, and crank up a nice 2nd gear wheelie....Im all happy with myself, look over at my buddy on his busa, to see an Illinois State Trooper sitting on his rear tire...well, we pull over, I get the riot act, he says he would have thrown us in jail if he coulda clocked us, and we both get written....
My wifes a lawyer, she knows everyone at the courthouse, so I go before the judge, and the prosecutor, my wife , and the judge all nod to each other, and the judge says, Mr Prosecutor, is a $25 dollar fine ok...I didnt say anything, but for 25 bucks, id pull wheelies in front of the troopers all the time
one more good offense...I was nearly home, it was 3am, no one was out...I pulled a 95mph wheelie down a 25 mph street, the cop rolls out, I pull over, and he says, How did you get the front end up like that..turns out he has an R1, we become friends, and since then Ive had no troubles in my town...
now im bikeless, the cobra is replacing that..and somehow, i have managed to stay out of most trouble with it. Soon to be selling for an 03, maybe i can get into more trouble with that LOL
