cant make it, never left the city for a ride today, will be at a meet in the near future!

Benzo · 07-03-2009, 04:55 PM

So check this out. When i left Tim's house after the meet. I was heading west on North ave to Randall and got pulled over after making a right onto randall. It was a St. Charles officer. His reasoning for pulling me over was my license plate was mounted improperly(vertical instead of horizontal) AND NO MUFFLERS!!!. He let me off with a written warning, so i guess i cant complain too much. However this officer has been a biker for over 20 years. So I dont see how loud pipes would be an issue with this guy? So we got to talking for a few min about bikes and other Police departments. LOL. So i guess i have a few things to change on the bike............

With him being a rider I cant believe he opulled you over

Benzo · 07-03-2009, 05:04 PM

I know, i have been riding for over 7 years and have never been pulled over. I guess it was a slow night or something.

tristan2ride · 07-03-2009, 06:38 PM

I just flipped my plate vertical (crossing fingers).

Was not able to make it last night, with riding today and planning to ride Sunday, had to make some family time...

Benzo · 07-03-2009, 07:13 PM

Family time MIGHT BE SLIGHTY more important than last night.........

Timboosh · 07-04-2009, 06:37 PM

Damn dude... that sux you got pulled over.

At least it was only a warning, not a ticket...

I know the Popo's get a little bored from time to time out here. My buddy got pulled over 2x on Thursday night for a bum headlight...

I just read an article on how metro chicago cops are trying to crack down on vert lic.plates since they can't read em when bikes are speeding. I see this trend go until the summer is over and things will go back to normal...
Tristans hd came w a stock horizontal plate, which apparently is cool since it comes froM hd.....
