So what happens if you're hard on the power through it?

If there's a 2mph variance, it'll abort the test, but how long it takes to complete the test I don't know. So how hard do you need to be accelerating?

I suppose a 0-60 of 3.2 seconds** gives you an average of about 2 mph every 10th of a second. So if the radar test is longer than this your safe. If not....???

Anyone fancy testing it out?




**http://www.sv650.org/sv_faq.htm Is the SV650 really that quick?

Seems like an excuse to get that TLS

Is that true? If so do they rotate the camera around the bodies so you can't be sure of which one's live? Is there a website that records which ones are live?

Bl00dy police taxes!

from what i have read a GATSO can tke up to 300-400 photos, they often run out in 4-5hours..so get praying!

A lot of Gatso's are now digital so the film never runs out....

300-400 photos runs out pretty quick if the camera's set 10 mph below the stated speed limit as in this case though. It'll be going off 15-20 times a minute.

Yes, James, they rotate the camera's around the fixed installation posts.
