I ve never had any problems with the old bill down here in sunny Sussex,the only run in i had was on the M23 whilst late for a doo and was....uh hummmm say doing a tad more than the legal speed limit (52mph over to be exact) looked in the mirror and saw two police bikes coming up behing on blue lights,i thought,their not going very fast on a blue light run ,then i clocked my speed.The lead bike pulled up along side and fearing a point to the hard shoulder and licence please,thank you were look after that for 6 months,he merely pulled up alongside and told me to "slow down a bit!!" Mind you i was wearing full bike kit with an ESCORT hi vis,I know i was a very lucky boy!! My ST1100 goes next week and an ex RLC ST1300 is coming in its place.I ve been told by a friend whos a Sussex traffic cop,as long as your sensible and dont take the mickey,they ll leave you alone.I ve even got written permission from Sussex to use Blue lights if part of an organised prossesion on a closed public road...don t ask you dont get,or thats what i keep telling the wife! Two pics are me on a road run in September last year on the ST1100 and the second is the new ST1300
