It was only 68 in a 55 so not bad at all. We were running 140mph on many straights so I feel lucky that it was a minor offence. I'll be calling the DA soon and asking for a "civil penalty". I heard you pay a little extra and no points. Sounds good to me. I had a clean driving record till now.

Yeh it works 99% of the time. Unless the judge or prosecutor has a tick up their ass that day. Always ask for the plea deal when you show up for court. Usually you will get a non moving violation, obstruction of traffic, failure to signal, and the one I really like, illegally exiting the roadway ($550, ask me how I know that price)

Glad to hear the ride went well! Sorry about the ticket.

So all the mods to the bike before hand weren't an issue?
