"1) Cobb County Police "

They suck soo bad that even other LEA make fun of them.

Count
On
Being
Busted


Those shi7bags showed up in full battle gear with MP5's pulled to arrest a Sgt in the Marines working an after hours job at Sears. No reason to act that way. The charges were not of that level and they were later dropped. They could have just showed up on base and he would have turned himself in if given the chance.

I had the feds come and arrest me one time and there were 6 of them in battle gear with grenades, mp5's , body armour and all the other added stuff they wear , there were also other feds there, over a dozen all toll. I was at work and it scared the sh*t out of the women in the office they all dove under their desks when they saw them as they were not marked saying they were feds. A "reliable source " said I had several automatic weapons and lots of ammo at my home for the weapons. They were arresting me for investigation at work at the same time they were kicking in the door of my home several miles away...needless to say all they found were several black powder pistols and rifles but no auto weapons of any kind , they did not even say they were sorry when they were done and my front door was destroyed and my home was in shambled from the destruction oh yea' right, search ,not destruction (looked like a tornado went through the house) The law enforcement community has all those neat high dollar toys and by god they are gonna' use them when ever they can......

I saw the new 1125R at the Buell homecoming and I like the looks and specs a lot but want to take one for a ride before I pass final judgement on whether to trade my XB12Ss in on one or not...

Quick fix's, orange is by far the fastest color and when I get my 1125 it will be painted asap. My land cruiser is orange, turbo charged 383 chevy, my 240 Z is orange, turbo charged 406 chevy and my S1W is a beutiful orange as well. I guess the real ? is will I be first to paint the 1125R?

I was aressted a few hundred years ago for an un paid fine, they came too my house about 4 in the morning on week day, knocked on the door, of course I answered pissed. The "DETECTIVE" said there was warrant for an unpaid fine, I explained that I had already paid it but could'nt find my receipt and off I went. He let me get dressed and we went outside, WOW, 20 or so cops, riot gear, and who knows what else. It all ended with me getting 285 dollars from the county and a big "were sorry" from the Mayor. Now heres what happened, I paid the fine on the last day I was supposed too, after work on a Friday, I would say about 4 o'clock. Turns out that the receipts for the week get turned in at noon on friday so it looked as if I paid it on monday, after the last due date, they have since changed there proceedures.

since they answered all my excuses for not upgrading my xb9r 02 model (correction: 03 model--bought in 02), i'd have to say the only excuse i'd have is the possibility that the big gills on the sides don't blend as well with the rest of the plastics. sure to get used to... good power needs big gills, lol.

regardless, i'm placing a deposit on this bad boy anyway site unseen (at least in person) because they listen to us & I want to support the direction i've always wanted them to go.

I can give you two reasons why I'm not buying a 1125R right now.

(1) there are none available right now

(2) I have a 2006 Ulysses and it's the best motorcycle I've ever ridden!

I'm not going to waste any more time picking reasons since the first two I've given pretty much covers it all anyway!

Well,
I'm not going to get in line, or put a deposit down on this new-fangled 1125R. Erik neglected to put any cupholders or changeholders on it, nor is there any provision for a sissy bar. But, on the plus side, I bet you could wrestle on a pair of apehangers and some tassles for the grips. And a chrome skull with light up eyes would really set this baby apart from all of those Japanese and Italian bikes. Sheesh.

Besides my personal reasons, I can't afford it. I bought this! Yup, a CanAm Renegade with a Rotax 800.
