The Motorola can out run anything.

Although at that speed in a weak-signal area you might have trouble getting in an 'access request' on trunked system owing to a combinaiton of picket-fence/multi-path and doppler shift and it's effect on the EDAC (error coding) algorithm ...

The key to outrunning John Law is the ability to be moving very hard when he first spots you and then to hail Mary for all you've got very fast for a short period of time and then find a hiding place and wait it out. I have ditched behind houses and in bean and cotton fields and woods a number of times. A prolonged chase is not in your favor especially with the eye in the sky on it's way.

Dash hard and fast and hide and wait....hours and hours.

I used to run on my H2 and on my GS110R all the time around Oxford Miss. I even skated once with my girlfriend on the back. But once I took off with Barney in pursuit and came around a curve hauling ass after about 2 or 3 minutes with the puruit car out of sight behind me and there were two Scooter Barneys waiting with bigass grins on their faces....lol....I gave up. They were so thrilled with finally catching me (I had the hottest bike around) that they could have cared less about the ticket...they just wanted to rub it in that they had gotten me. Damn...cops..even though they loathed us longhairs back then and would beat our arses if provoked ..hell, they just seemed more approachable then...hard to explain...now they're all bigscreen SWAT jocks...hardcases.

I will confess....if on a lonely stretch of interstate without children and doing my usual 85-90 in my wife's car and I see a Mounty turning around way back and there is an exit over his line of sight....I have been known to duck and cover...i can't help it.
