[QUOTE="2stroke, post: 694631, member: 25668"] The topic of illegal dirt bikes has been done before, but I saw a story the other night on the news where some officers were happy about seizing 8 dirt bikes from where they were being stored. They mentioned a change in law that allowed them to go right in and grab them without a warrant or anything. "Since they are illegal anyway". If I lived 2 miles east I would be in the city. DOes this mean I would be breaking the law by simply owning a dirt bike? Could they kick my shed in and take it? Ok, the 8 they siezed probably were not in some poor slobs garage, they were probably in an abandoned building or something but still it makes me a little uneasy. Also, and this is really what led me to post here tonight: THe officer in command was asked what became of the dirt bikes. He stated that the ones that were in poor condition were destroyed. The good ones are rounded up and put into crates and shipped to developing african nations for use by missionaries! I nearly choked on my drink! I can just see some preacher ripping up the countryside in a dark robe on a KX250 with a bible under his arm! What the hell? A noble purpose? I dont know but heres what bothers me about that: THe officer never said a WORD about attmepting to locate the rightful owners of the bikes. Let's face it, most of the bikes these city kids are running are stolen. Do they figure if they were stolen from the city that it doesnt matter since they are illegal anyway? The border between Baltimore city and county zig zags all over the place, and Im sure that alot of "legitimately" owned county bikes get stolen and wind up in the city. So they were urging the public to give anonymous tips regarding the location of dirt bikes in the city. And if you live in the Baltimore metro area and got your bike stolen, Its probably over seas by now! I really need to look up the laws, and see jsut what they say. I dont see how they could say it's flat out illegal to own a dirt bike. [/QUOTE]
