A serious question that is perhaps best left unanswered (you know, the what you don't say cannot be used against you thingy

),
but go and look at this incident. Quite entertaining.

Biker fleeing from cops

I think, given the right circumstances, I would probably chance it...

I'd be sure to be riding ALONG with traffic though, or head off road ASAP!

What happened there?
two guys on the bike? One got up immediately and ran, the other got up moments later and stumbled?

looks like the bike was made by Nokia

one guy fell off and the other flew off.

Plenty in the superbike days with no plate, but now older and slower.

My school buddie on his modified RZ50 once out ran the kaaswaens in the 90's. He had a KX60 modification on it. That thing farkedoff. The cops chased him due to not having a plate, eventually dropped about 3 waens.

I liked it when he still runs away from the cops after the crash.

cops chacing and no one is interested in the guy in the cage

BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH!! Classic LS.

I know a guy - rode away from a metro cheese on his new-ish KLR-sans-plate last week... I think if you get out of sight, you're away. Unless there just happens to be a chopper circling above - then you're proper, PROPER Fu#ked

Dunno how true this is ,but some Superbikers i work with told me about these metro cops with Busa`s , might just be an urban legend in the SBK community not sure ,but i doubt if i`d be trying to outrun one of em.

Depend's what mood i am in and why they would want to pull me off

My bikes are all road legal

If i am close to gravel i will make a duck and ride to the closest cop shop and say i was chased by someone who was impersonating a cop and looked like they wanted to hi-jack my bike

Two year ago, I'm on my way to Bloem.

6.45 Am just before Glen, I'm sitting at about 180 km'h, out jumps the #$%^&* KK's and indicates for me to strop. Nada - they give chase, so I took the gravel road to Maselspoort - we used that road during map reading excersises in the army, never saw them of their highway patrol BMW.

On tar I wouldn't favor my chanses

In the 80's had a XR500R used to be a sport in my town to try and catch me, as I was in matric and no licence. Never got caught but many close shaves. Nowadays don't know, they shoot at you so unless i have a serious reason won't try it.

:-) I "blew up" the bridge on the Verkeerdevlei road during Pel. Bev. course. Got pretty high marks for my aanval.

Depends on how well i know the area...

Lootch67 · « **Reply #19 on:** February 27, 2008, 01:59:03 am »

At least twice. The first time was on the N2 by the airpot in Cape Town on a K75. The poor guy was facing the wrong way and had no chance of catching me who was doing 190 at the time. I hid behind some taxis on the N7 off-ramp and then got off the N2 as quickly as possible. The last time was last year so I probably can't say that I won't do it again. Don't think they were trying very hard to catch me as I was on the AT.
