Quote from: TarzanBoyI disagree with the aforementioned tactic of getting motorcycles to pull to the side of the road (a la turning on the lights) until you find come up to one with something that you can pull them over for.

Not to add more fuel to the fire........
If you were in fact puttering along at a sunday driver pace do you think he could have seen the poorly mounted plate when you and your buddies rode by? Then pulled out with lights on and folowed until the two non offenders got out of the way. That would be safer than pulling up beside the one he wanted. Just a opinion.

Another thing(just a assumption), did you go to that road and exceed the posted speed limit at any time? Did you intend to do this from the start? If so then what is there to Buddha Loves You about. I would rather have a little plate mounting violation than a speeding ticket or any other speed/safety related ticket. Not saying you did any of that, just raising a general point.

Flame me if you must.

What a load of...

Would you say the same thing if one exceeded the day before? The month before? A year?  At what point do we stop saying "since you did x at some point in your past, you deserve what you got"?

Have you ever exceeded? Rolled through a stop sign? Jaywalked? Switched lanes without signaling? (yes, that's a violation)

Those are rhetorical - of course you have.  Now wouldn't you have been just a little bit upset if a cop pulled you over because, say, your rear breaklight wasn't working and gave you a $50 ticket for it?  

Of course you would!  And then you would share your experience with a group and some ass in the crowd would tell you that you deserved it.
