Ever see Julien Dupont? I love this guy..... I don't think he worries to much about stopping.

Ok depending on where I am and traffic I either slow down and look or stop. I am guilty of the CA stops thing. Comes from growing up in Backwoods Idaho in a town with no Stop light

Ha Ha Ha!:justkidding:
I stop. Every time. It gives people time to look at my ride! Ha Ha.

Now here is a guy with a bike where the cops will absolutely have no chance of catching.

yeah, I roll up to the stop sign, completely stop forward movement. maintain my balance as I do a final headcheck and then go.. So I do stop but it's not a "law stop". I do this on all corners, but my dad has a tendency to slow down and then gun it on the bike. Im still trying to change his riding style...

It's worth pointing out as well that the majority of junctions with "Stop" signs are where the visibility is poor when coming out onto the major road.
I don't really understand why you would instruct people to stop when there is clearly nothing to stop for.

I come to a full stop every time. With the cost of insurance in CA (not to mention the fines) I can't afford to risk getting a ticket on my record. As it is, I'm 52 with 0 points on my record and have been licensed since 1976 and my insurance through Progressive was just over $500 a year. I was pretty shocked at this since the wifes VT750 Shadow was just over $200 a year.
I think insurance rates in this state are out of control.

I stop always. Not that I really want to. Can't afford not to. Insurance scares you with rates. Right now I am paying 1011.00. me and my son are on same policy. If it would be only him it would be about 3500-4000 bucks!
On other note, if you ever take ride in Europe you will see that ridiculous 4 way stops don't exists there at all. Overall there is less stops.

I live close to Philadelphia and when I go to the city stop signes seem to turn into yield signs...lol they call it the Philly Slide.
