Cali Riders..

No problems on the Central Coast with beanie helmets or loud pipes. Cops don't target you, but will get you for the typical stuff......excess speed, red lights, DUI, etc.
#16
No s#!t. San Pedro is like the surface of the moon. Would it kill 'em to fill a damn pothole? LE's won't bother you though, unless you're obvious DUI material.

Yep. I lived in Monterey in the late 80s and spent the 90s in San Francisco. Never had a ticket for pipes or anything else. Never pulled over once in the 12 years I lived in California.

I'm in the SF Bay Area and I've never been ticketed for anything. But then again I don't do anything stupid. I rarely see any other bikers get pulled over and when they do it's usually for doing wheelies in the fast lane.

CA is not the place you want to ride. Gas prices are too high, insurance is off the books, and the weather is really not what it is cracked up to be. Highest ratio of welfare recipients to tax payers, Jerry Moonbeam, Traffic, Code Pink, traffic, crazy assed lane splitters, Undocumented workers, Press one for english, oh and did I mention the traffic?
