and to stay on topic my tl makes the cops just turn the blind eye at me where as my lifted blazer would get me pulled over all the time

Thats still not on topic, I can talk about my TL, but you can't talk about yours..

And I will not get to far into this type of discusion, but you can't trash the police, unless you have the stats to back it, look at the Crime stats for Worcester.. Could be wrong maybe it's not justified but you have to have the stats to back up the arguement..

Riding in full gear and looking like a "Racer"


I've never received any unwarranted LEO scrutiny because of my gear (all-black leather 2-piece and a bright yellow Shoei RF1000). Quite the opposite, in fact, even on my ZX14 which I had expected to be a cop-magnet. Almost every time I roll by a LEO either working a detail or sitting a speed trap, I get a respectful nod. At least it appears to me to be a respectful nod, but I suppose it could mean, "Yeah, I see you, and I'm watching you, squid."

Well I got the Axis Yellow X11 so neener neener!

I love the way yellow gets the attention of cages ... especially at stop lights.
