Longshot close call with the Imperial Forces

[Duster19]

My Escort 8500 is always on. I don't leave home without. It's saved my a@@ several times and the guys that ride with me are amazed at how well it keeps us having "fun" and riding a tad bit over speed limit.

Sure it's not just me, but if you have one and the others don't... You always seem to be the Rabbit.

PS. I run mine with a Kennedy over-ride, iPhone and Er6 earphones.

It would be nice if Garmin and Passport would join forces for an all in one unit.

Ys yes yes..the Garmin/Escort 1000.

Zumo and Passport in one unit with optional remote pickups for front and rear detection.

Who do I send money to?

Someone else mentioned that he leaves his detector on and doesn't mute it. That gets old, at least in my riding/driving area.

It's why I put in a separate power switch to control the V-1 while it's in my tankbag. I run the V-1 into my Starcom, but I hate even the muted sound when I'm in a retail-rich environment (strip-malls, grocery stores, etc). With the power switch I can just turn the power to it off. I just have to remember to turn it back on afterwards. :lol:

If this is an issue you should think of upgrading to the 9500. It has the ability with the built in GPS to dismiss false signals.

I have gotten use to just pushing the mute button on mine when I'm in known areas of false alarms.

JUst wait a couple of years and see how thy might be issuing tickets. Just a concept:

They will start putting a bar code on your bike or what ever you drive and put a transponder on the side of the road (anywhere) in two places and all you information about the bike.is on a hard drive and you will be getting a ticket in the mail Or the other option: Just use your GPS systems you already have and they can track you that way and issue you a ticke t. This system is being used rite now.

Tickets will be a thing of the past being issued by cop in the near future

Dont you love technology
