BUSTED and it ended badly

Let us know how that goes, I don't think you'll be successful, but best of luck.

Thanks for the vote of confidence. 

Illegal stop will not bode well for the officer's case as a whole.
My expired insurance card got me a ticket, but have my new one showing coverage at that time.
A ticket for driving in a state park without permit is reaching at best.
I am guilty of Switching my plates but if the assistant DA understands there was no reason to have me stopped to begin with that also maybe thrown out.

Nothing against you Kwells, just having lived in San Fran a little while and read a lot about how "lenient" they may be...

Ok,
So today I took my V for a VIN check and to the DMV for registration and titling of the Red V.  So now it's legal.  While i was at it I also replaced the plate to my Sprint that was confiscated.  So the confiscation of that 'evidence' has now been rendered moot and I am happy to say that both bikes are now back in action.  Have to get the title for Blackie from IL so I can register it that as well in CO.  But until it's a runner I'm not worried. Can always swap plates from my Red V.

Ha.  When will I ever learn?

out in my area they only impound if you are not sober and/or NO insurance. With insurance you are proving that you will take responsibility for your actions. No reg. can be caused by many things. Just be careful how you word things in court.

Try hitting your turn signal, stopping as fast as you can, dismount and face away perpendicular to the road center as you pull your wallet slowly, raise your wallet into the air in front of your face and slowly remove your gloves then your license. As your peripheral visions sees the officer's door open, holler "I have ear plugs in and I can't hear". Leave your hands in front of you, turn your head only toward the officer and, if you see no concern on the officers face, slowly remove an earplug on the side he or she is on. I have been allowed to go with a warning several times since I figured this out. I even get compliments for pulling over so quickly.

Admit the offense and remain polite.

The highest posted street in Kingman is 40 mph, we have 4 lane streets with 35 mph limits . Most streets are 25 mph .
I ride my vision in 3rd gear to avoid a ticket . 35 mph in 5th or even 4th is detrimental to the bottom end.

Really?  I lope in 5th gear every where I go and didn't think twice about.  I've been riding like that on every bike that will let me do so.  I figure as long as it's over 3000rpm, and can pull smoothly, I'm golden.

Just so that we are clear on the towing thing.  You were riding a bike that was not registered and you basicly had a fake plate on it?

Maybe I'm an old woman , but I was always taught not to lug a bike  engine, especially a plain bearing engine.
I'm uneasy running along  at 25 or 30 mph at such a low rpm. Oil pressuse is partly determined by oil pump speed  (up to a point) and I just like to insure that its not too low.
