Nice bike. I was close to getting one but went with the Bandit.
Yeah, I'm familiar with it. It is nice. The 1250 is extremely powerful in comparison. :-)

yes i bet it is.
No, it's not. I haven't had a ticket in years, but I got my last one while I was running whatever the top of the line Escort was at the time.Originally Posted by Eleggua
I was on Route 17 in Southern NY going WAY faster than the prevailing traffic when all of a sudden out of the clear blue the RD screeched full volume & pegged the needle for about 2 seconds. I looked all around & never saw the cop, but a ways down the road a State Trooper pulled me over & gave me a ticket for 90 mph in what at the time was a 55 mph zone......
He made a very nasty snide comment when he handed me the ticket "you slowed down real quick when that RD detector went off...."

They can be jerks that's for sure.
Then again, if you put your life on the line for the meagerly salary they get, I suppose you'd have to take your aggression out on something/someone.
Ever wonder why they have very high incidents of: Alcoholism, Divorce and Suicide?
Looks like payback is a bitc*, isn't it. LOL

Story is; wait a while and surf this site alot before you buy anything.....
I watched videos before I got into this-and fell in love with the x-50 blue....Sounds are pimpin on the x50, dont ever let anyone tell you different, the ka is really really the best tone to date still, neither though the x50 is getting old...I even like the 9500's tones better then the v1's sounds...But thats what got me to get the x50 as my first, and of course the blue..
The v1 is the coolest little compacted super sensitive radar detector I have ever held or used to date, it is really cool to..
If I had to start over and buy a first radar detector again, id go nutts..
I own a v-1 3812, 2 x50's older horn technology, and a bel vector 995...
these all are great detectors and I like all of them the same..
Good luck and wait and watch some videos in the video section and deceide that way...
well for my looks and sounds are way way on the bottom of priorities.
performance is what i'm looking for. good range and minimum false s.
So Blue, or tones or even arrows , personally are not more then nice to have. i'm not going to choose a detector by that. unless they are identical in any other way...and they are not.
but hey this is my opinion to each is own.
another problem in this forum about the X50 that i found out. even if you do want to get one, sooner or later you will find out that ho yeah the X50 is great detector ....but they all here are talking about the Ver 5.
if you dont have the old Ver 5, then it's not as good , or just not good enough anymore.
And of course they don't sell the old Ver 5 anymore..... so we are back to the V1
Why post if you already figured this out.
saying my opinion just like you... it's a discussion forum. :roll:
:wink:
