You might want to consider selling the bike for money considering you're broke. Then you can afford a lawyer and it'll look favorable in court because its gone.craigntx @ Jun. 22 2008 said:1458919[/ATTACH] AM]
if you didn't even go to jail you are extremely lucky.got a ticket for in excess of 100mph . (clocked me at 105) when really i was just slowing down from hittin 150 ! also i have a permit and was driving at night , so he hit me for that also and they impounded my baby ......
not sure how much it will be to get it out and definatly not looking forward to court and how much the ticket will be .... the way i see it ill be screwed in the ass by the court and end up givin alota money to the city for this . damit ! why does the bike goo soOoOoOoOoOo f**kin fast and the speed limits are soo low? anyone els got an outstanding ticket for going over 100 plus ?? i know this is hayabusa.org and not honda trail 90 .org so you guys should have some good stories on getting it stuck to ya by "the man"

my 1st jail experience (on a bike) i was flyin along a 2 lane road, had been for like 3 or 4 miles.
didn't make a stop sign (i was young and inexperienced) soon after that a cop pulls up next to me with his gun pointed at me. then he runs me into the ditch. he had been chasin me for a while, i never even knew it with the lid on. went to court and beat the fleeing rap.
last time, i stood er up on the seawall in galveston (which i've donr prolly 100x) and proceeded to work.
little did i know, a cop had seen me and pulled out after me, but she caused a wreck and stayed there, but radioed ahead.
another cop saw me at work and held me for her and i got a wreckless driving rap. there was another little charge i wont go into now
but i went before the da, told him to just jail me, i'm broke.
he gave me an option to drop 1 of the 2 charges
i chose to drop the wreckless, to keep my clean driving record
If you don't get a lawyer, definitely talk with the DA and explain your finances and maybe consider the jail time in exchange for lower fines like craigntx did. See what the DA might offer you.
I know how harsh Cali is about 30 over and over 100mph. I always "try" to keep it under a hundred just in case.
I save the 100+ speeds for trackdays now
