Hey David, This is a for real honest to goodness story..... The day my son got his M/C license his 16th birthday I had a car that needed a state safety inspection as well as his 02 BA, I said you ride your bike and follow me, On a two lane highway at 65 mph we passed a Texas DPS state trooper going the opposite way, I looked in the mirror and seen him hit his brake lights and pull to the right as other cars behind him needed to clear and he spun around and started our way, I verified our speed and was 5 under and Glyn was riding as straight as an arrow. He must have got a call and will be flying past us in a bit.... He pulled up behind my son and hit his siren... My son signals and pulls over as I do also... I sit in the car and see my son talking to him as DPS doesn't like you to get out of the car uninvited, The Trooper then approaches the car and said " I understand that your this young mans father"? yes sir I said. Well I'm sorry that I'm imposing on you guy's but "I seen that was a Triumph America your boy was riding and just had to get a closer look" "Is that ok"? UUhhh sure officer! We talked for 30 minutes and he asked 200 questions and thanked us several times for takeing the time to share a look at this beautiful bike! All the time my son was hyperventilating and his legs were shaking cause he thought he did something wrong when pulled over, And finally he told the Trooper... "sir you scared the crap out of me" Oh I so remember the first time I got stopped my hands shook so bad I could hardly sign the ticket. True story for real T
