I've read reviews, but I have yet to talk to someone who actually owns one.

I always go with the clown suit myself. Works great if, ya know, you like the younger ones.:|
 
Might consider a pilots license, that would be fun
 
Or maybe he should just get a jetpack.
 
250 miles at a 75 mph arverage is 3 hours, 20 minutes. 75 average, considering most routes are not all freeway, is a very good average. It means cruising on the freeway at 80 to 85.

250 miles at an 80 mph arverage is just a bit over 3 hours. An 80 average, considering most routes are not all freeway, is movin. It means cruising on the freeway at 85 to 90.

Making a 250 mile run in only 2 hours is 125 mph average. That means speeds around 135 or better for a lot of the trip. That's plain nutz.

If you can do it in a bit over 3 hours, you're doin good. And risky, on top of it. 2 hours is plain stupid and your girlfriend will eventually not have you around. Don't fool yourself.

All that said, get an Excort. Valentine has the added feature of know where the signal is coming from, but frankly, if you get a hit in the Ka band, are you really going to take the time to see where it's coming from before slowing down? I think not. Save your money and get the Escort. It's every bit as good and sensitive as the Valentine but 100 dollars less. Bel makes good units as well. I wouldn't get anything but one of those three brands.
 
My understanding is that Laser is what CHP uses by and large these days and there's no detector in the world that will save you from that. Besides, the CHP officers that I know use the "instant-on" technique which no detector in the world will save you from that either. :2cents
 
hmm so 3 hour ride at 65mph or 1 hour ride at 195mph?

What kind mods you got on that gsxr? :rofl

But beside the flaming... get a cobra radar detector.

also if your exhaust is stupid loud i recommend putting on a quiter one or even stock to be more stealthy.
 
I re-read the OP and noticed that he considers it to be a 3 hour ride which is already brisk and wants to trim it down to 1 hour?? :wtf This has got to be a troll.
 
dude...

the LEOSs dont need a radar to give you a ticket for 100+

IIRC 100+ is jail no matter what


BUT from what the leo i talked to said... if you do 180 they cant turn around or get up to speed fast enough
 
Duuuuude your going to drive that fast to see a fat chick.

I didnt know Mille had a brother.

yes 3 hour to 1 hour ride, L.A to SJ was done in 2hour:45min with no radar... average of 150mph top of 190mph who would they call? 911 tell them which parts of what road that wouldn't make any sense...i don't buy it..

If death was the case, this forum wouldnt be exist WE ALL KNOW IT.

thanks for the info and CARE, im done here...cheers and RIDE SAFE!:ride

You cant beat the radio. There are products out there for changing your result on their displays.(most need to be made from scratch) just needlessly impractical. possible just impractical. on a car easy done, expensive and more weight. but

YOU CANT BEAT THE RADIO
 
What's your gf's #? I'll screw your gf, steal your bike, and punch you in the face. It'll be just as embarrassing as what you've done here, and in the long run, you'll thanks me!

:D
 
I tried to read the whole thread but got bored so sorry if I repeat someone else.
OP try meeting half way once or twice a week and spend weekends together.
I5 and 99 are the shit for riding and the drivers suck too. Ride safe, occasionally.:teeth

Valentine 1

Going fast enough to turn a 3 hour ride into a 1 hour ride.... A high end Radar Detector is not going to help you.

Other motorists will start calling you into 911 and reporting your excessive speed, it will just be a matter of time before the CHP track you down.

Reasonable speeding is one thing, blasting along at triple-digits and expecting not to get popped is a totally different story. Don't be a moron.

And don't cry and write a six page post here if you do get a ticket or arrested, suck it up and take it like a man.

Actually, Moike is 100% right.

I speak from personal experience in this matter, and I wasn't even going 3x the speed limit!

I was in fact using the Valentine 1 (best radar detectors there are, period) and was given a police escort out of Ohio as well as being "reported"--just as Moike described--by other drivers to 911 where I was not cited, but leaned on VERY heavily by the Nevada Highway Patrol.

Since the aforementioned incidents, I got rid of the Valentine 1 and have learned to control my throttle-twisting urges.

Trust me when I tell you that this is one road you don't wanna go down.
I hear they don't use Vaseline in California.
:shocker
 
I've heard of guys topping out 'busas on I5.

Just sayin'...
 
Welcome back Scout...:rofl
 
Wow. That's a pretty stupid solution to the problem of having a long-distance relationship. Good luck with that. The V1 is great. When I had it in my cage I didn't get a speeding ticket the whole 3 years I had it, until it got ripped off at a tow yard. It saved me from at least 3 or 4 tickets that I would have fallen victim to. There are ways to make your bike invisible to radar too, supposedly.
 
sound's like someone is pussy whoop'd!:loser :rofl
 
I meant there are ways to make your bike invisible to ladar, or whatever. I have no idea if they work. I remember seeing that they cost hundreds of dollars some years ago.

Condoms? Rusty doesn't need any gadgets to please a woman!

Wrap the whole bike and your whole person in foil. That ought to reflect lasers. Also works wonders against tasers too. Won't stop bullets though, if it happens to get that far.
