BLiNDBoi 930 Posted July 5, 2014 Arn't they supposed to not chase someone anyway? Vaguely remember hearing that, anyway this guy probably lost the cop after a minute or less regardless. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vaguely remember hearing that, anyway this guy probably lost the cop after a minute or less regardless.Usually they don't fuck with bikes because of how easy it is to get away, it's more dangerous to chase them trying to keep up than it is to let one traffic violation go. 1 water.exe reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Moose 4890 Posted July 5, 2014 I know quite a few cops that'll just let 'em go. Their ability to squeeze through traffic and stuff causes more trouble than it's worth. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrCoolness 547 Posted July 5, 2014 I hope he realized what you guys are saying and at least went where he was planning to go anyways. #efficiency Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bob Ross Zombie 1512 Posted July 5, 2014 Yea cops stop giving chase after so long because it's more of a danger, they'd rather pick them in cuffs then in pieces, it's less paper work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Destin 1958 Posted July 5, 2014 (edited) I'm not a bike guy, but is it normal for him to be riding so close to the median and the line separating the lanes in the beginning of the video? I couldn't do that Edited July 5, 2014 by Destin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yeet 1050 Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) I'm not a bike guy, but is it normal for him to be riding so close to the median and the line separating the lanes in the beginning of the video? I couldn't do that Yeah it normal, the whole lane is ours but you usually stick to either the right of left most side of the road since most of the nasty stuff is in the middle since car tires don't go there, the gravel/oil/ect. I ride same as he does, close to the median. As long as some idiot doesn't try to hit you on purpose you are fine, motorcyclist can usually see who's a threat or not by the small details (defensive driving is huge) Is that Demon? Running from the cops isn't hard since you're practically sitting on a rocket with wheels Edited July 6, 2014 by Demon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElectronicDrug 7496 Posted July 6, 2014 Usually they don't fuck with bikes because of how easy it is to get away, Was with a group of 5 people, speeding up a highway, with a little bit of traffic. Came up on a cop. He jumped across 4 lanes and took the exit. 2 Skotti and yeet reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Demonoid 48 Posted July 10, 2014 so im not familiar with driving a motorcycle but why does he keep pulling the clutch when it seems he has already shifted six gears? at 3:30 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yeet 1050 Posted July 10, 2014 so im not familiar with driving a motorcycle but why does he keep pulling the clutch when it seems he has already shifted six gears? at 3:30 Probably wasn't in 6th, if you're pushing the bike to its limits and as fast as possible you shift at a higher rpm than you would normally cruising around town since you accelerate faster at higher rpm (gas guzzler though). Either that or he was trying to shift to a higher gear from 6th not realizing he was in top gear, I've done this a couple of times when i had my 250 lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
