Sirius is an outlaw, he was flying that illegal bike, flounting it. 
One of the reasons he didn't get caught might be that the Ministry 
was too busy chasing Voldemort and his supporters. In PoA, Dumbledore 
says that Sirius does not act like an innocent man, and maybe he 
never has. It might have been an influence (a minor one), a factor in 
him being convicted without a trial.
