re: How many of you have been involved in a high speed chase ?

Ran from the cops at 100+ mph on a Yamaha R6 about 5 or 6 years ago. I think the cop gave up pretty quickly, but we were on Hwy. 90 heading back into Slidell so we assumed the Mississippi cop radioed the La. police - there really isn't anywhere to go for a long stretch on that road. When we got back into Slidell we tucked into a neighborhood, and my buddy laid his bike down in a turn and ended up on someone's lawn. Really ignorant - there are a string of little bridges along Hwy.90 and we were making passes where you couldn't really see oncoming traffic. After I got home, I thought, "You're a 40+ year old dentist with a wife and 3 kids at home, and you're running from the cops at 100+ to avoid a ticket? WTF???" I never rode on the street another day after that - I stuck to track days once a month and never touched my bike otherwise.
