History of SFC1000

[Tippie]

Know all about the chase - knew they were cops but could have been thugs in an unmarked car - Darwin 1975, speed dangerous to the public, manner dangerous to the public. Didn't beat us up but a night in the pen and they rode our bikes back to the cop shop. Didn't attend the court hearing - was already in Perth by then.

$100 fine we got in the end.

Mazing, same all over the world, ditto on my Suzuki GT750K, night time chase, thought the idiots behind me were bikers, they were, Bankstown Highway patrol ( for the locals here ), outran their poxy Honda 4 Kwhatevers, i stopped quicker than they could, they kicked my bike over, beat me up, threw me in local lockup and beat me up one more time for good measure, real hero's of our police force. Then held me over for court the next day, speed dangerous and driving in a manner dangerous to the public, mandatory 6 months goal, nice.... had a solicitor turn up in his Maserati...the rest was history, section 256 ( 10 these days ), offence proven no conviction recorded, or slammer for 6 months... j

1984, M1 just north of Nowra. I did story a year of so back. Where I live now the problem is opposite. Cops overrun by the crims. Hardly see HP and or radar. No speed cameras.
Average freeway speed 70- 80 mph. About 140kmh I guess. Dicey part is majority are on their phones.
