Ticket

First time I’ve ever been pulled over on a motorcycle. :pop

I was by Ellis hospital and a trooper followed me up and pulled me over. He told me he pulled me over because I had no mirrors and didn’t have any reflectors on my license plate (which he said are both ticketable offenses)

So he took my license … blah blah blah … and gave me a fix-it ticket for the mirrors - I guess I have till tomorrow to get the police station to check it off and the ticket will be dismissed.

Told him exactly how it was - when I redid my bike my bar end mirrors I purchased didn’t fit so I couldn’t use them … so he gave me the chance to fix it.

Guess I may want to look into getting those ghey circular red reflectors on my license plate.

since when did we need red reflectors on our plates.

Yea I’d like to know that too

All east one rear reflector doesn’t say where

… but he didn’t even mention my exhaust. Which was cool by me.

The other officer asked me “Are you a doctor?” (I have my Rossi fairings with “The Doctor” and “46” on my windscreen and I was definitely confused. I was like, “No, why?” and he mentioned that my motorcycle said “The Doctor” on it. :lol

I wanted to laugh but instead I had to explain who “The Doctor” is - Valentino Rossi, and why I had the stickers on my bike.

I’m gonna be going to Walmart to get a red reflector ugh!!! Cops suck

Most people didn’t know about this. Fender eliminator ALSO eliminates the one rear red reflector, hence making your bike “technically” illegal.

Cops suck?

Its hard enough seeing a biker, let alone when hes driving like a psycho (now, they arent ALL driving like that, but a good majority of riders i see are doing such).

I’d want to do anything and everything I could so I would be easily spotted and not ran over

Well I went to Wally world and picked up some reflective trailer tape that I’ll end up cutting up and putting on but I also saw reflective numbers think I’d get bothered if I put the same numbers that are on my plate but with the reflective numbers over them?

Cool story bro.

No no no your was way cooler

I’m taking the mirrors off my car for the morning commute. brb

Carful you might accidentally think your wot box is activated and have to start a thread about how not to buy the brand of tools you used to take the mirrors off because they caused you to burn your clutch out

The stock clutch is a piece of SHIT!!!

Perfect time to upgrade

Waste of money

Who needs a clutch then rev match and throw that slut in

That could work if I commuted in Cobleskill and not in stop and go HORSE SHIT TRAFFIC

Cow gard because RACECAR!!!
