The bit passed the cop was interesting.... what a complete idiot tho

That guy can't ride for toffee. I could filter more quickly and smoothly than that on the FXR, if I was stupid enough to want to go out and do it. Without the gratuitous powerstands, of course. And I don't think he was controlling any of those slides. If he dies in agony wrapped around a lamp post or under a truck some day, it'll serve his dumb arse right.

[Motoracer]

Actually JR, he is in control of it and I hate to say it but he is good. He is just riding in an erratic/cocky manner to show off. If he couldn't ride, he would have fallen off by 20-50% into that video...

Hmmmm, mebbe so. I just don't see any real skill in that. Just balls and irresponsibility. There was a *lot* of heavy braking and chatter going on. If he wanted to make a show-off video, why not ride smoothly? I guess I was just rather struck by the thought "I could do better"...

Anyway, one way or t'other, he's still a twit :bleh:

[k14]

You don't see the skill in it?? It is farkin hard to learn to control skids on a 200+kg motorbike. Yeah agree he is a twit, but it was definately a show of a high amount of skill.

I doubt you could filter faster than him, does the FXR do 200??

[Zapf]

my that is some insane stuff :whistle:

No. He's obviously just an idiot with no control skills. And I could kick his butt with a freaking GN125! He brakes like a nana at the slightest provocation, I wouldn't *need* to do 200 to stay in front.

[rodgerd]

You don't see the skill in it??

No, because he's surviving on luck. He nearly gets collected a number of times, and it's sheer luck that he survives.

[nicko]

Nice vid and good skills.

Look at the angle of the front of the bike when he's braking - he's backing that in majorly sideways. Agree he's an idiot but it's fun to watch.

[jrandom]

Sigh.

Paltry pickings. Don't want to leave it dangling for *too* long, it'll go stale.

Perhaps next time I should try trolling on a subject more interesting to the silent majority. :p

[NordieBoy]

And he'd better put some more brake fluid in soon...

[andy1]

Hey ppl.
keeps you on your feet aye?!
If u did notice the road is very wet!!
That vid was from 96-99 so it was awhile back.
The guy was able to walk away after that ride but now he doesnt......
He is dead...

really?

dont tell me..... it was a skiing accident?

[marty]

must have had cut down bars to split some of those gaps. probably died of boredom in his sleep. hey maybe it was that guy that did the kopu-whanga ride in 8 minutes..

[Motoracer]

Some thing tells me, he wouldn't be the fastest back/open road blaster though. If he had nice roads to ride on, he wouldn't be getting his adrenaline fix through city riding...

You should write that up as a sociology thesis, mister.

It's probably true...

[dangerous]

Well at the risk of sounding like a pompous git again, I would call him a bloody wanker.......... just like that half wit Ghost Rider. Neither riders have a shits concern about cutting a car in half and killing the family inside. IMO theres no skill in riding like that its all luck and I believe his has run out.

As far as the Ghost Rider goes that man can ride a bike with an impresive amount of skill when he wants to ie: the stunt shows and wheeling the Busa turbo at near 300kph in GR2 that is amazing shit.........BUT the footage in town riding at those speeds is brain dead behavour just like the vid clip in this thread.

[Motoracer]

wheeling the Busa turbo at near 300kph in GR2.

It's actually well above that. You can see it on the vid when the GSXR1000 is doing 299 and he over takes it on his busha REAL quick on one wheel. I think it was about 340 or something...

[Mongoose]

Some folk ride with a death wish alrighty. Only needed one car to pull ot, as nearly happeed at least once(look for the brake lights on the white van) and it would have been a different story. Wonder if he would have still shown it then?

[Skyryder]

No skill with this dickhead. Now you know why we bus drivers do not open doors out on the road. I wonder why he stopped filming. Maybe the cop finally caught up with him. No speed/radar camera's in Russia. Could a bikers paradise.

When it comes to skill, there is a saying in aviation circles that sums this up perfectly.... "A skillful pilot is one who uses his superior foresight to avoid the situation that may require his superior skills to survive"

In motorcycling there should be an exact parrallell.... " A skillful rider is one who uses his superior skills to avoid the situation that may require his superior skills to survive."
:cool:

[andy1]

Jantar, thats sounds like something from the army?! :ar15:

[Two Smoker]

THe guys and idiot and has crap laneslplitting skills..... BUT he can do some mean slides and was doing some power slides too that were well controlled.... wheelies needed work.... survived mainly on luck.......

8 mins fron whangamata to Kopu????????? hhhmmmm with no cars yes, with cars=deathwish :eek5: we wont go into times that we have done (aye MR :shutup: )

GR was doing at least 340 past that gixxer thou as MR said :niceone:

[andy1]

The guys a idiot but he sure got skills.

Maybe you should show us how its done TS :killingme

Look at the front wheel angle when he`s sliding......
