Not that bad.. At least i still have my bike. Anyone know how it works if i have an out of state license and they suspend it? _____________________________ 03 CBR 600rr Black - Jardine RT 1 slip-on - Custom Fender eliminator - Flushmount Red LED front blinkers - Carbon Fiber Gas Tank Protector and Gas Cap Cover -All hard work brings profit, but mere talk leads to poverty.

So if you drive in another state and you happen to get pulled over then the cops puter will more likely than not show that you gots a suspended license. After the 30 days goes by you may want to check with state you're licensed in to make sure the suspension is gone. I'm amazed that you got off so easy. Did ya hire a mouthpiece or defend yourself? _____________________________ It's better to burn out ... Than high side! (in reply to rubberband man) Post #: 2

When they called my name she looked at the ticket and smiled. Then she asked me if i wanted to plead guilty or not guilty.... i said no contest.... so she just let me know that it was a mandatory 30 day suspension of my license and dropped the fine from $500 to $317. The dumb bailiff was like," 140 mph is very fast" and the whole court room was like DAMN!!!!! I was expecting the judge to give me the whole talk about how i could have killed someone and myself but they didn't. _____________________________ 03 CBR 600rr Black - Jardine RT 1 slip-on - Custom Fender eliminator - Flushmount Red LED front blinkers - Carbon Fiber Gas Tank Protector and Gas Cap Cover -All hard work brings profit, but mere talk leads to poverty.

They suspend the priveledge, not the license because it was not issued in MI. I don't believe it affects the state you are licensed in, since they have their own guidelines, laws, etc. But I would check on the state where you are licensed through to see if they would also suspend you. One thing is for sure, don't drive on the license in the state that suspended you. In MI, it is an arrestable offense, though some areas only issue tickets for it. _____________________________ '05 Honda CBR 600RR Black/Tribal dbl bubble windscreen,aftermarket signals, fender eliminator, frame/swingarm sliders, Yoshi slip-on, etc. etc. etc. (in reply to rubberband man) Post #: 7

If you are driving in Ca and have a suspended license in another state you are considered driving with out a license 12500(a) CVC. _____________________________ http://streetbikereview.com http://rrzone.com (in reply to lfcalc) Post #: 8

I am suprised that you didn't get a larger fine and lose your license longer. I guess it might just be me but I don't see the reason to go that fast. Beyond the fees and suspension you are lucky you still have your life.
