In OH 20 MPH over the limit is Reckless Operation, a 6 point violation. I think 25 0r 30 over is automatic jail time. Good luck in TN

Well. . . . . . actually got pulled over for going 90 mph in a 45 while lane sharing with buddy on his bike. Oh and for wearing a beanie helmet. But anyway, the trooper said my vertical mounted license plate was illegal. Does anybody live in TN and know if that is true. He didnt write me a ticket for the plate so it made me wonder. I have searched TDOT and DMV motorcycle law and I cannot find it anywhere.

Racing on the street is just stupid. At least four people a year die in my city thanks to people like you, usually predestrians.

As for the rest of the respones to my comment..yes I have insurance....and no i dont race through areas congested enoguh to hit pedestrians....
The bottom line here is that I'm very selective where and WHEN I do it.
Also most of these street racing deaths you speak of...they are causd by retards in hondas and such that go speeding throguh congested areas..carrying on races for miles like int he need for speed races...not just simple..qurater mile or lesss races froma dig...
My car takes less than 12 seconds to break 100mph...Thats why I am selective where and whenI race.....usually thoguh my point is proven(or not)by about 80 and we both shut it down..
I'd race my bike...but Umm....I'd have to race Chevy caviliers fromt he 80s if my dual sport was to have a chance..lol...

True, but I have torun 85-90 daily on the 101 just to keep from getting ran over. Iwill say that AZ cops are very forgiving of motorcycles speeding in normal traffic... as long as they aren't doing 90 in a 45 while drag racing. That would get you thrown in jail inheartbeat.

In AZ you would be going to jail for anything over 20 mph over the speed limit. It is actually a criminal offense here. The top speed here is 75 mph on the interstates, and it's only 10 mph over there before it's a criminal charge.

Not trying to rub the wrong way, but for all the law abiding, that's the speed you have to ride unless you want to be an obstacle on the freeways in phoenix nowadays. It's become just like a race track, no kidding, when people are in a hurry here, most of the time.
I was pulled over one night at 82 mph in my service van, and the cop told me to keep it down, and kicked me loose when he found out I was on my way to make someone a key that was stuck in a parking lot late at night. That was a pretty cool cop.
Seems like the motor cops always nod when we pass on bikes I would swear about half of them are grinning like they're just out riding and getting paid, and loving it Never been pulled over on either of my street bikes. Have had problems on my old dirt bike though...
