No reason to post this other than to make fun of the comment "He was also cited for speeding" and the fact that they noted that he changed lanes without signaling. You mean that's not legal??!?!? You wouldn't know it by the number of people who don't even seem to be aware that their car came with a turn signal  Bash

Come on the guy is 20 years old, he is young enough to think he will live forever.

Maybe next time after he eludes the cops he will have enough sense to get away from the bike and change his clothes

...a trooper using radar clocked the 2007 Suzuki SX7 motorcycle...

The salesman assured him this 07 was a new model that had simply not been released due to the delayed related stealth technology obtained by proxy from the F-22.  (Dang guv'ment red tape gumming up the works)  Why else would a 20 year old have been going so quickly down the roadway?

As for the 'Intent to Change Direction or Lane Signalling Devices', my 99 P/U had those listed as an option...  I opted out.   Lol

I want to know why you are down there in the Bay Area and looking at OUR news.  
I think that there is intellectual property laws about that, or interstate browsing of information; something like that.
I realize that it was in Portland, but we are The Pacific Northwest (which, as everyone knows, stops at the 49th parallel).
And besides, KOMO got that news legally through an information hostage exchange agreement.  But they got it for us.


So.  I think that you should stick to your fancy, chic, progressive Haight-Ashbury-Summer-Of-Love news, browse the internet on a Mac while sipping NAPA Valley white wine and leave ours alone.  'K?

I noticed in the comments that nobody thought intentionally opening a car door on the highway into the path of a speeding motorcycle was bad.... funny, I call that attempted murder.... Crazy

I think the reporter left out a few letters of the bike name. I'm assuming it was a GSXR750.

My guess was that he got kicked out of the Acropolis and was en route to his other favorite hangout on Powell. I'd ride that fast when its closing time too. But seriously, those roads just BEG you to haul ass. 55 mph? Pullllease.

You're just jealous because you live in Tacoma Crazy and not somewhere cool like Seattle or Portland  Lol


Oh, and I'm justified in following PNW news because 1) I lived there for 13 years 2) I have friends there and 3) I still have a house there. So there
