Scary video

[Maki]

I know there are a lot of videos on youtube showing bikers doing stupid stuff, but this one is in a class of it's own. Clearly someone who is skilled with the bike but has the judgment of a 2 year old. Note especially at 1:12 where he comes within a hair of highsiding at 175, the speedo blips up to 200 as the rear wheel spins!

Just another person playing superman who wont learn until they have a serious accident, or die.

Those were some pretty crazy cornering speeds. The car drivers 30 seconds in must have shat themselvs.

another 'ghostrider' coming up....

Its a numbers game...only a matter of time until a traffic 'issue' happens :nono:

Doesn't need traffic... that close to a highside, at that speed... odds are never permanently in your favour... :whistle:

Live long...hmm me thinks no.

[shafty]

[Insanity_rules]

Borrowed from Hinny = "Any bike will last a lifetime - If you ride it fast enough".

The way they were riding it was inevitable....

Not inevitable - but very likely indeed.

I take a guess and say the gearing had been lowed significantly - probably 200km/h on that speedo would be closer to 150 in the real world.

What a knob...Bring it to a track as see how fast you are there :)

[McWild]

The dude's a nutcase, absolutely, but through the video I couldn't help noticing...

Damn those are some NICE roads.

But yeah, he's an idiot.

I'm not too sure if I would say he's in a class of his own ....wasn't looking forward to seeing what happened when that car pulled out .. could've been messy!

That dude was pretty lucky! Pity about the bike!!!

[NDORFN]

That passing maneuver was the only let-down. Imagine being nailed head on by a bike doing 200km+. If you have family, imagine it happening with your family in the car. Other than that, it was nice riding. The road wasn't the type prone to pedestrian traffic, and he obviously knew it well. Still, if he'd just had the patience to wait a couple of seconds when it counted, he'd have eliminated 95% of the risk.

Cool vid nice wheelies not as bad as some other vids out there.
