Worst ticket you got on a bike?

68 on a 25 mph curve.....It was almost a $200 ticket & 4 points.....went to court and had it knocked down to $80 & 2 points.

How did you get price AND points lowered. Normally I have to pay I have to pay a higher price to get points taken off.

I knew (In general not just cycles) some people who said they were willing to pay the full price if they didn't get any points added to have the judge accept it.

The cop was very surprised that I pulled over for him, he said most us "crotch rocket guys" run from him....he said that if I went to court, he would cut me a good break .....and he did.

worst ticket was 110 in a 55.

best warning was 85 in a 35

dumbest was like someone above only my cop was at least unmarked when I cut him off.

I got a warning at least because I was wearing gear

Now days I have severly slowed down. (hence the HD instead of a sport bike anymore) Having a driving record like a teen is no longer fun in my 40's so I'm almost clean of all tickets. Haven't had one in 2 1/2 years. Got tired of buying those guys those fancy new cars I guess.

Worst one had to be when I had no endorsement and was riding my 250 Yamaha and left one night to go to my buddies house. I left my house and my battery almost wouldn't start my bike, so it idled very badly and tried to die on me. When I got to the stop sign at the bottom of the road, I kind of gently rolled through it so as to not let the bike die and out of no where, here comes the Super Trooper. I ran it into a parking lot cause I knew it was going to die and sure enough, it did. He asked why I rolled through the stop sign and I told him what was going on and he saw that it wouldn't start back. He asked for my license and insurance card and I told him that I left them in my buddies car who had just dropped me off. I told him that I had just got my license that day just before closing and gave him my name. He pulled it up and saw that the endorsement was not showing and said, and I quote, "You know how slow Raleigh is. They must have not got it on today."

He then let me off with a failure to stop ticket and I called my bud to come jump the bike off and I never rode it again.
