Today was my day. I went out riding with 2 of my friends today (2005 600RR and 2005 GSX-R 600), and we were just out hitting up some back roads and running around. Well we ventured into the local college town, and on the way out of the town, my inner squid surfaced. We were 3-4 cars back off a light, and I was in the middle. We were in 1st gear around 15-20mph. Evidently, everyone saw this cop on the side of the road, EXCEPT me. He was on the side of the road, someone pulled over, and he had his damn lights on even. Anyway, I didn't see him. So I get some room, and I've been playing with 1st gear wheelies all day. So I clutch it, comes up a little, but not a lot. So I immediately hit it up again, and got it and got to ride it out a little. By this time, I was in the front of our pack, and when I looked up after landing, this cop is staring me down as he's writing this ticket. He couldn't believe I did it infront of him I bet. So I keep going, as he's watching, then the road opens up and I take off. I don't condone running from the police, and technically I didn't, he didn't come after me, I just didn't want to change his mind for him.

Bottomline, don't wheelie for chicks without checking for your neighborhood law enforcement officers :D.

Close call there. You may need to get a new seat after that.

Believe me, my friends thought it was a fucking riot. They weren't sure if I had huge balls or just plain blind. Turns out I'm blind :D. I should of came up with something like "F the police" or something like that at the next light :lao.

i think we've all done something stupid infront of a police car.

I poped a power wheelie up to about 65 and got up to 110 before I slowed down and pulled over. Next thing I know I have this cop right behind me. Didn't have his lights on. He just told me to slow down and drove off. I didn't even notice there was anyone behind me before I started playingaround.

Just bustin your stones Scott, everyone from the ride today was on TSR, but I know them from one place or another.

Was a good ride, 5 HOURS of riding. We started at 3:30, ended around 8:45. I still had my mirror shield on, couldn't see anything after it got dark. Those HID's I put in the bike were worth every penny!

:lao That's funny right there. If it helps, I am a police, and still catch myself saying oh shit, or braking real hard(even though I know they saw me) when i'm caught in an unexplainable event; think it's just a habit learned over the years.

I was riding into town the other night, hitting the curves a little hot when i meet a string of 3 cars...the first one has his brights on...so as I am rounding the 45 MPH curve at 70...I put my high beams on and the reflections from his county sheriff decals on his door flash back at me...when i saw his brake lights, I did the same...just a twist and I was gone...
