i've been through a simliar incident with a friend that died on his R6 back up in illinois. My friends were riding spiritively i will say, and long story short Drew came up too fast on the group ( he was trailing behind ) , clipped the rear tire of another rider by accident, and the rest was horrifying. they found his bike in pieces scattered up to 150 ft out into a nearby field. the cops tried to put all the blame on drew etc and it was a big f-ed up mess. bottom line is imo cops will try to fuck with anyone they can, its thier job. unfortunately for anbody that likes to have fun on wheels i feel we are every cops worst enemy. I have never had an officer be respectful in any manner, only acting like an asshole because of what I drive. I just found out about bart, kind of explains why i havent heard from him in a while, needless to say im shook up but so glad the situation isnt any worse. best wishes for a speedy recovery bart.....
and fuck the Tampa bay Police. Fuck them up thier stupid asses.
