Andy,
My last DPS experience which was about three years ago involved the real "jump out boys," as out of a helicopter. Apparently they had chased me from San Antonio to just north of Sequin. I really had no idea there were patrol units after me until I saw the very white spotlights from above on the road in front of me. When the patrol units arrived they were less than pleased & they just couldn't comprehend I was testing "top end" at dawn on a Sunday morning however I did receive a very impressive escort(almost Presidential in nature) to the Gonzales County Jail. 
Thankfully, the judge was a bike enthusiast who gave me a pr bond. Sometimes you never know, luck can change quickly. Where in central TX are you located? I am in Houston and I would like to ride occasionally with another Duc rider who knows the roads in the surrounding countryside.

DList, 
 
I got the call. The Black & Red 1098s is here ! The same day as the painted parts from "The Kid" and the CF from DP show up (what luck).  
Man, I must be livin' right ! !  
Just a heads up central TX folks. I'll be doing the 
mandatory 600 mile - semireserved riding the end 
of this week and the weekend. 
 
I am hoping that my luck is better with the nice DPS officers also. 1st day after the Multistrada was back 
from 600 mile & comfort seat install I went to JAIL in Brenham. Although, it was an Arlo Guthrie moment ... 
 
I come in with full leathers, handcuffed with waist 
chain and shackles around my Harley boots. 
 
"wha'cha in for" - F*#KING Speeding 
They all move away.... 
"what was ya doin ?" - 108 on a Ducati 
They all came and sat back down ! 
 
Ride On, 
 
Andy
