i'm with all of the above...don't run you just can't outrun a radio it's impossible!!!
BUT
one of my mates is a copper and he gave me some inside news
He loves the chase but his new SS commodore pursuit car is speed limited i think it is 240 or 260 but definatly speed limited...as he has been caught out a few times on the way up the F3 to an emergency hitting the speed limiter!
he also said most police that he knows will not chase a bike cause of three reasons!
1. they cannot catch a bike in traffic or at high speed.
2. he said that the risk of injury to the rider and investigation of the riders death is too much to take!
3. a radio is more effective so long as someone gets the plate they will see you at home later and most of the time a member of the public will get the plate for them!

I'd rather be riding my Hayabusa thinking about God than sitting in church thinking about my Hayabusa
