Only a biker knows why a dog sticks his head out of a car window.

Sure makes you think about the necessity for full attention, riding to conditions and wearing proper gear.
Interesting that he also commented on the impact his accident had on his family as well as himself, and the "bulletproof"/"it will never happen to me" mentality.
A brave young man who has shared this as a lesson to others.

Shit video! Superbikes aren't 600 ccm.(Aside from that factual snafu it's all good though.)
Yep, no mention of the idiocy of putting rigid posts along the road which will increase the damage of most accidents - irregardless of what factors that cause the accident to happen.
Has no-one managed to ride a bike with a prosthetic leg btw? I know of several people who ride bikes with only one arm...

That's a very valid point! One would expect that one of the first things considered in placing such obstacles should be the impact, (literally), they would have should a vehicle strike them. The reason for them being there is not given, but considering the narrowness of the road and the proximity to the side of the road, they were always going to be a tragedy waiting to happen.Shit video!
