Fuckwits.

"Just what you need when you broke your back only two months ago - a 996 up your arse..."
Nice bikes, some good riding, but they should have kept it for the track, where there's no cliffs, concrete walls, cyclists, or traffic coming the other way. Kinda inevitable.

All fun 'n games until...

Meh... spent the whole movie waiting for a tractor with silage trailer to be pulling out... now that would've been entertaining... but in the end it didn't even take that much... strangely none of the cyclists bothered to stop to help... I wonder why?

Kind of a predictable outcome really. The impact from the guys balls mean the gene pool is improving though, so it's all good.

But having said that I have ridden damn near as stupidly (not as fast because i have never owned anything that quick and my technical skills aren't a patch on those guys). I have (mostly) grown up these days and recognise that binning my bike is a bloody awful outcome at best and potentially a lifetime in a wheelchair or my kids without a dad. To say nothing of potentially killing someone else, like those cyclists or the noob wobbling along on their GN250 having a great day on a bike.

Riding like that has no good points, if you're into racing that much go and race with the big boys.

Bloody car drivers!

We need better training for car drivers to reduce motorcycle accidents!

Yes, you're right, but that's only part of the solution, and better training for car drivers will result in less car, pedestrian and bicycle accidents too.

Well done for getting the thread onto your soap box too, nice work.:clap::clap:

I thought the camera was a gyro mounted one but it looks like the guy wearing it just has an incredibly bad riding style, ie he (and his mate) counter lean everywhere.

Shame I had to watch the whole thing to get to the ending.

lolol. You gotta grow up sooner or later. For some people it takes more pain than others.

I have always thought that the SB8 was a cool bike. I have never seen one or never likely ever will but from the pics I have looked at I likey.

Pretty fucking dumb doing it on an open road..... Locals must get a bit sick of self obsessed Poms behaving like that on their roads.
