  1. Re: Help with 9500ix sunscription update issues.

    I did.

    It is up and running after 5 days for an update subscription. Ridiculously slow process you have in place.

    I submitted the second update order so in another 5 days maybe it too will...
  2. Help with 9500ix sunscription update issues.

    I did the online 1 year subscription update thing. So it takes a few days for them to respond or send out the number to update the unit. Not immediate as it should be once "Detector Tools" tells...

    Re: 94 & 100 Octane gasoline

    Our local Yamaha motorcycle shop in California sells some higher octane stuff that is ethanol free, but it's $12-$13 per gallon for the privilege of being E-free too. Comes in either a light blue or...

    Re: Don't Talk To COPS!!!

    I doubt if there isn't a traffic cop alive now who doesn't know about jammers. I sat in traffic school by two CHP officers and they know about them so I'm sure it is part of their POST training now....
  6. Re: Detector Tools does NOT work with the new Windows 7 SP 1.

    I just ran into this Windows 7 SP1 thing with Detector Tools. If Escort knew of this update way back in November, wonder if they are going to extend the subscription for a few months until they get...
  7. Re: Don't post on YouTube if you are going to speed like a maniac

    I got pulled over by a sheriff in Nevada on a rural road. He spotted my video cam on the dash (it was active). Conversation turned to some guy that got pulled over in some other Nevada county and...
  8. Re: Six Fort Worth traffic cops fired in grant-fraud investigation

    Thinking outside the box, I could see where the city may save itself some money since the officers fired will not be able to claim some Worker's Comp claim against the department on retiring as a lot...
  9. Re: Police officer driving/typing on computer rams a 74yr-old motorcyclist.

    Officer will get off. Motorcyclist did not yield right-of-way at the unmarked intersection to the cop car on his right. That's how they'll play it out no doubt. City 'might' pay for some of the...
  10. Re: Brentwood installs cameras after speed limits lowered

    At the end of the article it also mentions installing a speed camera for a 15 MPH zone on 34th Street. Who does 15 MPH? In my car, I cannot even idle that slow. Absolutely ridiculous, but we all...

    Re: Dual antenna Escort / Bel radar detector

    I'll guess the second generation of Redline will have the arrows or something.

    That one may morph into a "GPS and radar unit" with dual-antennas like the single-antenna on the current combo unit...

    Re: Now it is stop signs too

    Yes.

    Sitting in traffic court, I heard more than one cop testify, that "His/her wheels were still turning which was why I stopped him/her for the failure to come to a complete stop."

    I've come...
  13. Re: Buddy gets pulled over for 73 in a 70 by Tx dps

    Another reason to hate lawyers.[/QUOTE]
    Sometimes a necessary evil.

    My last encounter cost me $900 with a lawyer. Got dismissed and expunged from the records. Seems they double the court fees...
  14. Re: Buddy gets pulled over for 73 in a 70 by Tx dps

    Around the university in Chico, CA 3 mph over will get you a $300 ticket. Rolling stops are $375. State hired more CHP even with the budget crisis and they are exempt from the furlough days the...

    Size of the new heads?

    The LI site shows this for the sensor size:

    Sensor size: 3-1/8"L x 13/16"W x 9/16"H

    Is the length (3-1/8") with or without those side mounting tabs? I'd like to get rid of them for a...
  16. Re: CA - Police Cracking Down on Distracted Drivers Today

    Eating a hamburger is now distracted driving too? How about a coffee cup - or does having a coffee cup in the car's cup holder carry the same judiciary evidence as an open beer container now in CA? ...

    Re: Stalker Radar to Introduce New LIDAR LR

    Good grief.

    Why can't the cops find an honorable profession and go arrest some real crooks in Washington, Wall Street, insurance companies, or the damn bankers who steal millions. Probably...

    Re: NY - Red light cameras coming soon

    Only $50 in NY?

    In CA they are $375 with $175 of that to the Redflex Company who installs them.

    Okay. They are easy to spot for all the skid marks on the pavement too. We had a rush hour...

    Lane Splitting Yamaha R1 in Russia

    And I thought the 186 MPH dude on the BMW S1000RR was bad in New York.

    Last 2-3 minutes of this guy's video is beyond nuts!

  20. 1 vs. 3 yr. subscription & maybe a new detector soon?

    Been pondering whether to subscribe for a 1 or 3 yr. subscription database for my 9500ix which has now expired.

    If something new is on the horizon, I may want to trade it in for that and go with...

    Is this fast enough, or maybe too fast?

    The GPS (end of the video) shows 192 MPH with indicated 186 MPH on the dash before the rev limiter kicked in at 14,000 RPM. Moving "Average Speed" at...
  22. Re: Bad rear bearing... how to identify which one?

    Z1NONLY reminded me of something. One car I had turned out it wasn't the wheel bearing nor the CVC joints. One motor mount was shot and the engine would move to the side a bit on turns and make the...

    My experience is "Yes, they do go after flashy colors."

    My motorcycle is a bright green color. At times, I'll also wear one of those bright yellow neon reflective military vests for safety's...
  24. Re: CA (Los Angeles) - SoCal Stop Sign Camera Locations Revealed

    Face it, the state needs money. Better stop for 5 seconds in those areas now. CHP has been writing for 3 MPH over too.

    Red light runners have been decimated to the lower-level rolling stop...
  25. Re: Bad rear bearing... how to identify which one?

    Cheap?

    Didn't say, but I will assume you have front-wheel drive.

    Jack up the rear end. Get the wooden handle off something like a toilet plunger. Stick one end in your ear and the other near...
