Yawn... another young male with a short life expectancy and too much testosterone.
At the risk of sounding like a nazi, the sooner he loses his bike and license the better. Hell, if he lost his life I wouldn't care overmuch.

Oh noes, I think there maybe something wrong with my browser. The page header reads 'a man who knows how to drive his bike', but the vid I'm seeing would best be described as showing 'a tosspot with a microscopic willy and a deathwish demostrates poor clutch/throttle technique'.

nice rideing, clean, fast, calculated risks taken all the time for sure, but was it dangerous? In my opinion, no. Was it exsessive yes.
There was a lot of good handling in that vid, some poor choices, but i didnt see the speedo go to a speed that was in my opinion too fast.
The guy can handle a bike sure. Like to know what sort of bike and where it was done.
If I was 30 years younger, and still in the"Im invincable"age then that could have been me

What would a man with a two wheeled automatic shopping trundler know about clutches? Admit it, the lad has skills.

There are some though that think the two are the same thing.

Motorcycling videos without corners are boring.

Let me guess though, young, dumb and full of c*me. There are lots of old riders but not many old, bold, riders. Good luck sonny, you'll need it.

Is it just me or was that 6 minutes of "Highside at any second" material?

I'm tempted to think that the all the locking up of the rear-wheel and power slides were quite intentional. The fella can drive, there's no mistaking that or at that pace he wouldn't have survived the 5 mins the video took!
That being said I would prefer not to have to share the road with anyone driving like that - no matter how competent they are. But hey, at least he's neither hugging the fastlane at [posted speed limit]-5 km/h nor being an unattentive motorist so meh.

Meh...skills or not, it is ill used on a road where other less skilled individuals are. There is nothing impressive about being a moron on the road.
When (and not if) he offs himself, I just hope he won't slam into a car with kids on board.

Indeed.
Compare that video to the Ghost Rider videos. GR goes through traffic at a similar pace, but manages to make it look smooth, controlled and not particularly dangerous. You can tell that he knows what he's doing and is managing his risks carefully.
The rider in that video is just... bleh. Yuck.
:no:

Obnoxious and lucky to be intact??
There's a guy he cuts off (on a bike about 1:20 into it). I be fucken spewing if he did that to me. Lack of control etc etc etc.
I'd give it 2/10 for style and 10/10 for good fortune. I'd also put $100 on the fact he's hit something in the last 12 months.

Yup. If that was me, and I was without a pillion, etc, I'd be very tempted to take off after him and give him a good thump the next time he stopped.

Exactly what my beloved would do too. Not that he's prone to road rage or anything, but he is very against maniacs like these who obviously think it very clever to play that way...I am the first one to admire true skill, and be it in speed, stunting, or anything...but there is just a place and time for everything.
