Close friend of mine claimed he got caught for 160mph in a 50 on an R1. He went to jail, bike got impounded, etc. I figure a possible 10mph exageration on his part, but still, that's damn fast. I really don't understand why he didn't just keep going. Yeah, I know, I hate to do the "my friend did this" thing, but I figured it was worth mentioning.

My only speeding ticket was brought down to 60 in a 45, I was actually going 65. Around $100. I was keeping up with traffic, the motorcycle cop had to pass 3 other cars going the same speed to get me, including a car identical to mine. The worst part was the HUGE sewage truck that was in the lane next to me going the same speed. To me the truck that weighed several times as much as my car presented a greater threat, but I got the ticket.

Hehe, I got 'em back though. When I sent in my check to pay for it I wrote "Oink Oink" on the the memo line.
