87 Tecate KXT Ques.

[1FastTecate]

so how long will it be tbefore they close down all the areas YOU ride in? Buddy you make me sick....I hope you lose the suit and get some quality time with a nice man in the county lock up. guys like you are the reason I have no place to ride.......and same goes to all you people responding that they hope you get a lot of $ or the cop loses his job. My brother is a cop in west virginia, he does his job, if that means busting guys like you...well he does. imagine how your parents would have felt if the cops had to go tell them their kid just got killed running from them to have fun. I know my brother has had to do it several times and he does not like it much. I personally will make a stand and say I wish you would not find yor parts

Its my fault you have no place to ride ?? Okay if you say so. Buddy you dont know me or where i live, or how the cops are over here, nothing.

Does your local P.D have 6 Raptors ?? Most dont. Mine do however. Thats what i meant by running from the cops. i am unable to ride anywhere i live b/c of the water reseviours(sp?) all around here. Most of the bottled water comes from my area. What happend was two cops in the cars were looking for another rider that messed up the baseball field, and i ended up by running into them.

I woulda explained into further detail in my origional post, but i thought i would get to the point rather than waste every1's time.

Some1 please hand me a tissue NickG actually made my eyes tear up. LOL

Yo, Mr Fast Tecate.
Here is your main screw up with this post in general. You stated that "Keep in mind that I look forward to this." when referring to getting chased by the cops. I am sure that some or most of us have at one time or another eluded the police in or near our favorite ride area. I am guilty as well although my experiences were 15+ years ago. My problem is that it sounds like you are seeking out a police chase which is just plain stupid regardless of where you live, how old you are, what the police are like in your area and how many Raptors they own etc.etc.etc. You were just looking for trouble and now you found it...

i am sorry to make you cry
well doing things like you did does not help the situation, and if you and your buddies have loud pipes, yes it is probably your fault
well maybe the guy who wrecked the field should be proud, again, if your buddies are doing things like that, you are gonna get burned, I live in a watershed too, infact it is a lot larger than where you are in shelton area, I live where the NYC/newark and other city resivoirs are, I have NO places to ride, so I do it leagal.They enfoirce the law very vigorously and have all kinds of atv's, trucks and even the darn National Gaurd!(imagine runnin into a guy with an m16! I ain't no terrorist!) I go to ny state, pa or private land with permission, i respect the owners and never have loud pipes(not to say i was not a kid with one, but i now realize the pipes are why most places are shut down...and dummies wrecking things or riding on the roads at 100 mph) have you been on ct riders ? there are lots of legal places to ride in ct, a lot near you! Riding is a lot of fun, but nowadays it also requires a little tact and a lot of responsibility, the things you do today will affect everyone tomorrow, i feel bad for your situation...infact i sold you the shifter on ebay, i completely empathise with you and your problem, but think about the situation you created.You have to understand that the police are ther to protect the public, when you ran from him, he was doing his job. are you registered and insured? if so it is legal to ride short distances on the side of the road to a trail, but like any other situation involving flight, when you run the cop thinks there is a reason, know that it will come back to bite you in the long run big time. I don't mean to be harsh with you, but learn from this, the police are not out to bust you and all atv'ers. they have better things to do, I bet the guy who chased you just wanted to talk to you and see what you knew about the fields being ripped up. it takes a bigger set of balls to own up to one's mistakes than to blame everyone else... as far as the parts to fix your tecate, pm me, i can help you out

[NICKG]

oh, if you think they don't know who you are already cause they never caught you, think about this...how many bright green trikes are in your town? i bet no t many. i suspect they knew where you lived and if they really wanted to bust you they would just knock on your door and have a nice visit. I suspect you will have a lot of problems when you get a drivers liscense(the cops remember things big time).

[NICKG]

also, what if one of the cops sees your post? your suit is history

I couldnt have said it better. I cant think of anything to add to this.

Well being that I have worked in law enforcement for 5 years I have delt with all kinds of issues. We have pulled over a few quads riding in bad areas(school grounds or golf courses). Most of them time I just tell them to find a place where we cant get to to warn them! HAHAHA I also gave them a warning, that you dont want me riding your high dollar quad around for under 500$ do you(at the police auction block). But those that ran, I would make down the make and model and color and what the person looked like. Then one day down the road we would end up finding them and taking their quad away. So give the police respect and pay your dues if you are being illegal. YOu would be suprised if you stop when they come, you might just get off without issues. But dont be a punk or smart to them during the conversation.............peace

I respect every1's opinion, and took everything every1 has said into consideration. However the local cops know who i am, where i live, just like what was stated. I actually have a picture with a local cop doing a wheelie on my trike. They are cool, but there is one cop who has always busted my chops, even through high school. This cop is the one who happened to do it. I have made 3 complaints about him prior to this incident, and then this happened.

I just recently got my trike on the road again. It sat for about 8 years at my mothers house, so thats why i said i usually look forward to this. B/c the last time i ran from them i was about 17. I never had to deal with issues trailprotrailpro such as going on the road to get to a trail,, b/c my backyard(then) was Indian Wells State Park wich has acres and acres of trails, but since then a bunch of houses were built and i was forced to go about a mile to catch another entrance into the trails.

As for the baseball field i did not know of that situation until after i got outta the hospital. And to the guy who use to be a cop, i can relate to that considering my mother is a state trooper, my uncle is a homicide detective, and another uncle is a sherriff in VA.

LOL your def. right havent seen any, but Nick thanks for the info on CTRiders. I was unaware of that site, and cant wait to check it out. As for the shifter, it better have good thread buddy lol. I was happy as hell when i found that shifter b/c i went to get a new DG silencer at R.E.R and i asked about the shifter and they wanted $120 for it. And i wasnt gonna pay that much. So i really appreciate the sale. I almost have everything. Only things i need now is a DG exhaust(mine now has a dent) airbox cover(on there now is a piece of a recycling bin), rear brake caliper, clutch lever, front brake lever and rear axle.

that is the same reason I only ride my ac330r at legal places, there aren't too many 250r trikes around here, infact last year I was riding in a local pit(in monroe) and I was hitting a few of the jumps and such and I see a white suv just as if I was gonna go up the hill that was near it, I sped off, back to my truck, loaded it up and was gone. Went to a friends house, then stopped at one of my friends shop, bs withhim a bit, go home and the next day I hear from a co-worker(who is the cousin of the guy who has the shop) and he tells me a monroe cop was there asking about a atc250r and that they are looking for one(not wanting to buy), the guy said, I don't know what you are talking about a 250r trike being here, the cop told him that he is full of it and "I know you know the guy with that bike, becasue we have a witness that placed him here". Well, my bike didn't appear in monroe for a few months and never heard about it again. One thing that sucks about owning and riding a trike, you are remembered, a typical warrior, 400ex, 300ex are a dime a dozen and a cop won't be able to point out a specific one. I already met a cop out by helmetta/e. brunswick, he saw me pushing my bike where most people ride them down the street and said that he would tell the rangers and such not a hassle me, so I guess its not all a bad thing. he did bust my balls about the bike running(my kicker flew off that day and couldn't find it, the cop understood me not killing the bike)

[NICKG]

worse case, just go to ny state, there are plenty of good places there, pm me and I will help you out

[NICKG]

also you might consider this to, if you are related to all these police officers(especially your mom, being a state trooper) think about how your actions reflect on them......especially your mom. i am sure she hears all about it at work
