This is why it pays to ride a Harley. The oil slick leaking from the engine will cause the pursing cop to spin out into a ditch.

I had a guy one time tell me that once you're out of sight, the cop can't pull you over bc he can't prove it was you. He said he lost a cop one time, then pulled over on the side of the road and waived as the cop passed. I always thought this was bs, and don't ride. Can anyone confirm?

Running from the cops just seems like a really bad time.

Im really not sure what I would do. I don't own a bike so I never have to make this call

You could always put it on YouTube.

A seven-minute video shot by a speeding motorcyclist as he eluded police could end up costing the rider up to six years in prison when he is sentenced Friday.

Hamza Ali Ben Ali was accused of trying to goad a Westmont officer into a high speed chase while Ali shot video from a camera affixed to his Honda CBR 1000. Ali might have gotten away, if the video hadn’t been uploaded onto YouTube.

“It’s almost like it was a game to him – look at how fast I can go,” said State’s Attorney Robert Berlin, who said his office will seek a prison sentence.

Ali, 31, of Plainfield was found guilty last month in DuPage County of aggravated fleeing and eluding police and driving with a suspended license.

Authorities say the Westmont officer tried to stop the speeding motorcyclist on Oct. 21, 2012, along Cass Avenue. The YouTube video shows a police car, lights flashing, following the cycle into a gas station before the cyclist zooms away.

The officer broke off the pursuit but eventually caught up to the cyclist on I-55 before the motorcycle again sped away. There was no license plate on the bike, but the officer saw the rear-mounted video camera. Police suspected footage might get posted on YouTube and, sure enough, video showed up there about two weeks later, which led to Ali’s arrest, authorities said.Tribune

Yup. Sometimes, the cop just might cut you a break on the misdemeanor and just nail you with a heavy civil infraction if you actually stop. Some risks just aren't worth it. (Especially in Michigan where excessive speed alone is not itself reckless driving)

I was on a ride along when the cop I was riding with stopped a bike. The guy started fleeing, but ultimately stopped and waited for us to catch up. He was hit only with a 4 pt civil infraction (16+ over the speed limit) instead of either the possible careless driving or felony fleeing charge.

If he caught me doing 150 it's a felony either way...




Catching up with someone going 150 and you're stationary is pretty much fucking impossible.




IMO cops should never chase for a traffic infraction if the speed reaches excess of 100mph. Just not worth it for all parties involved.

Not worth a felony charge. Though in VA 150 would result in a class 1 misdemeanor and likely loss of license if convicted.

GSXR 1000 vs cop car is not even a game. IN my younger days I ran from the cops 3 times.  Each time I was in excess of 100 mph and 2 of the 3 was on a back road.  1 of the times I was running a 150 on the free way.  Pressed it up to 190 hit the first exit and went south on the 4 lane.  Hit the next exit and took about a 50 mile detour.  The other times I just pinned it and lost them in the curves and turned on a side road and had someone come and get me with a trailer. Not saying it was smart but didn't se many options.

there have been more then a few bikes that have run in my rural county, all got caught even if they get away from the first car.
there will be squads closing in from all directions, you will be generating driving complaints form other drivers, calls from parents

Ran from the police once in my old Lumina Z34.  (Don't judge, I was just out of High School, it was a sweet car at the time.  )



One officer was in the passenger seat - one was in the potato field with a flashlight.  By the time the driver got back to the cruiser they were quite a ways behind me.

I got away.

Had to admit to it later on a polygraph for employment purposes - the guy got a kick out of it.

That night I was pissing my pants waiting for the cops to knock on my door.

How does this video differentiate from the sea of other videos?  How did it get the rider caught by the police?  I'm not searching for training info (my 800lb Rocket Roadster doesn't do twisties well), I'm just curious.  While I'm asking, what's up with the "join date, post count" thing?  What's the connection with retreads?  I'm not trying to derail the thread, I've been wanting to ask this for a while and figure I'll get all the hate at once.  Thanks.

No its not.

Most states do not even have a felony speeding law. If you disagree please cite.

The only state that has felony speeding that I know of is Florida and that is only after the 3rd offense of 50 MPH over.

However fleeing/eluding is a felony in many states.

I would stop without question.

A big speeding ticket is better than a more serious problem if they catch you running.

$100 bucks for doing 150mph? yea no. in NY it's gonna be about $700, lose your drivers license, and any other charges they tack on can push it higher.

Pull over and take it.

Got a 5 minute lecture and a warning after being pinched for going over 120 mph.
Oncoming cop lit me up and I saw him braking and turning around.
Had my helmet off and license and insurance out by the time he pulled up.

He (RCMP) thanked me for being responsible enough to pull over, read me the riot act and let me go.

I was expecting much worse.

Going 150 mph on a motorcycle is suicidal. So let's just assume the rider is gonzo nuts. Nothing he would do in regard to a cop would surprise me.

Hypothetically I mighta bumped into the wrong side of the law a time or two back when I was younger and new it all but,  now days I would stop.  Dont need the aggravation.

So with that being said you can easily outrun the cops on a bike but you cant outrun that damn radio for shit.  Just sayin. . . .

Also if you cant out run or out maneuver a car with sport bike you prolly dont need to be riding it.

I get pulled over the other day and its only cause the dang trailer lights quit working.  But the initial reaction when I saw the lights was still to floor it

Well, it takes a Dodge Charger srt8 392 approx 30 seconds to go from 0 to 150 (0-60 in 4.2). Police chargers with the regular hemi are significantly slower but let's just say they have a srt8 392 high speed pursuit car for kicks.

If bike is already doing 150mph then he is covering 2.5 miles per minute. By my math, by the time the police gets to 150mph, the bike has already put 1.25 miles between himself and the cop car, and this is just if the bike did not accelerate to faster speed.

Cop has no chance unless bike stays on same road and cop radio ahead.

All considering clear highway as stated in OP.

So with that in consideration, if you are on a bike going 150, count to 30 and then turn off, cop won't ever see you. Especially since the cop won't have a srt8 392....

rider might not, but the cops should care.

A chase is a FAR larger threat to other vehicles on the road. First off it'll push the rider to make riskier decisions. (even more than deciding to do a 150) and then you add a car to the mix, which due to the laws of physics a much more dangerous projectile than a bike.

Getting away is easy, especially if you've got a fast car or a bike.  It's trying to unass the area later when every blue uniform for miles is looking for your very unique vehicle... that's the problem.  Maybe easier on a bike that is a dime a dozen.  

It will at least cost you a $500 donation to the special victims fund to buy the nolle, and that's if you can get it down to misdemeanor wreckless from felony evading on the side of the road.  

So I've heard anyways...

When I was young and dumber I liked to speed a lot on my bikes.

I've passed cops at 120 and had them flash their lights and not budge, and I've had one chase me at 170.

We had a few go to routes for evading if it came down to it.

Both spots were developments with bike paths leaving them that had bollards that would stop a car but a bike could split thru and have a 5+ minute lead.
