I've gotten two speeding tickets in two months of riding it now! One for 71 in a 65 and yesterday for 75 in a 65. The next purchase I make for this bike will be a good radar detector. I'm not sure if it's the red bike or not but I'm having some bad luck

Those are called PERFORMANCE Awards
You have been rewarded for out performing your competition on the road
Problem #1 ... you're in IDAHO ... there's nothing for cops to do in IDAHO but wait for you to come by zooming ...

Actually the guy was pretty nice, he was asking me questions about my bike and how I liked it. He also told me about the defencive driving class you can take online and take 3 points off your driving record...... I never got a ticket on my blue BMW!
You are exactly right Goldtahoe!! We need more bank robbers here!!
Just be glad you don't have one of the fast black ones, you would have lost your license by now.
You got one for 71 in a 65? Wow thats a bummer, I guess that cop was having a bad day or something
Sorry to hear about your bad luck.This bike is so smooth and full of power I too have found it hard to stay below 80-85mph.I'm always checking the speedo and use my Breakaway throttle lock a lot to stay out of trouble.
Yes, I'm taking that one to court. He had his cruse control set at 70 and pacing the traffic. I got on the freeway about 4 car links behind him and in the span of 5 or 6 miles crept up on him to where I was right next to him at one point. As soon as my bike inched passed his car he turned on his lights. So it wasn't a speeding ticket actually it was a "disrespect" ticket.
In Brevard NC you get a ticket just because....................6 over is a definite ticket.
Had a female cop in another local town writing for one over. Wrote so many the judge told her if she couldn't find something better to do she needed to find another vocation. But no telling how many she wrote over the years.
Both well known speed traps. Or revenue generators......
