I've been pulled over by the OPP on the Ottawa river, we were fishing and we were catching and release but the cop was a asshole so we turned the boat on and drove down the river to the quebec side, hehe.

If the officer was like a drill seargent in basic training, I'd say he got laid the night before, and was in a good mood. Either way, you're real lucky.

Yes it is a cool vid but 200 MPH on a street bike. I don't think so. You would need one of those [url=http://motorcyclecity.com/turbine.htm:4441c]jet powered bikes[/url:4441c] and better tires.

The reason you weren't ticketed was because you didn't act like a jackass. You guys seem to forget that you write your own tickets. Act like an ass and you get written up. Show a lil' respect, joke a lil', and show that you have your shit together, you drive away with a verbal warning. It's that simple.
Or you can simply never get caught like i do. I mean honestly in the 5 years i've been driving i have hit speeds of 132 mph in a 70, 90 in a 40 , and have generally driven so that at this point no one will ride with me. Im safe, I've never been in an accident, which is more than most people can say. I've been radared at 100 in a 70 (they pulled over the guy i was passing because he was in the passing lane, we both had white cars)

The bikes name is hyabusa. A Japanese bird that dives on prey at 200+ mph. It is the worlds fastest bike, and will forever remain so. The companies have stopped there "super speed" production compatition for the fear that bikes that were to fast, and to powerful were getting in the hands of the inexperianced.

Side note. A modified version of this bike currently holds the world speed record on a production bike at over 240 mph. That was on the salt flats. The rider said the course couldnt handle the bike and he dare not push harder.

That bike is a demo bike only. It was made to display the viper engine. Rich people started saying they wanted them so dodge made 9 more. They were delivered as "non-functional" models. IE they didnt run for one reason or another, likly they didnt put chains on. Its still a damn nice bike.

Oddly the article says they'll be driveable but not legally. And what the whole production bit is i havnt heard shit about.
