26.75hp sounds about right ...

I think that dynograph pretty much tells the story.

I'd suggest you get a letter form the dyno shop with your rego and engine No. info on it stating what they did and there professional opinion...

Tue Jul 18, 2006 2:22 pm

Well done!! lets hope these can assit in getting you a lighter sentance. :)

Tue Jul 18, 2006 3:03 pm

Lighter sentence be f*cked !!!
Nothing less than a total apology, court costs, loss of wages, cost of dyno and a check back to see how many other ppl this slack pr*ck stitched up!!!

We are not looking for a lesser offence he, he OBV. stitched you up.
At the LEAST the whole thing thrown out and old mate reprimanded and previous bookings checked.......

This sounds completely fair. If he was this far out, how much credibility does he have? Bugger the lighter sentence. Pain and suffering might be worth a try too. You have obviously been worrying yourself sick over this.

Weather he was doing 186 or 100km he was still speeding.
In the eyes of the law, thats what will count.
(I would hope the whole case would be dismissed, and would fight so)

As to all the stuff you mentioned about court cost, wages etc yes he should be compensated.

Unless they have completely removed the burden of proof, the boys in blue have to prove you were actually speeding before they can book you. That's all well and good if you are actually doing a credible speed. If the the blue shirted highwayman responsible for this particular travesty has written you up for a speed that is patently impossible, then how do they prove you were speeding at all? If it becomes a case of his word against yours, then his credibility as a reliable witness is in the toilet. This becomes a bit academic if you admitted to the copper that you were speeding and he recorded it on those little tape recorders that they all seem to carry. In Queensland they tend to throw out iffy, unimportant cases if it looks like a legal precedent is going to be set. If you go to court and the copper swears blind that the radar clocked a speed of 183, and then you prove that the bike is incapable of doing that speed, it calls into question the accuracy of the radar. They certainly don't want that. Everyone will be fighting their speeding fines and basing their defence on the precedent that was set. Better to sweep it under the carpet and forget about it so they can keep raking in the revenue (sorry, keeping Australias roads safe) unmolested.


In vic we would rather shoot you , and then send you the bill for the bullet!!

I wasn't happy with my original post so I tried to fix it and got a reply while I was fumbling around. So now it's out of sequence. I'm so ashamed. :oops:
