    She is a fine line between being a hero and being a dead dickhead.
    Some parts of the world they paint that line.

    You must have been watching different videos to the ones I was.

    They were a head-on waiting to happen.

    Lets hope when it happens it's with a fucking great truck and not another motorcyclist.

    If I could have condensed the videos to just the crashes I would have left them there.

    Fast bikes are ( from the making of ) have a support team , but as Ive said they are pretty good about keeping left , unlike Bruce on his Zuki ( stereo type, sorry to anyone actually called bruce and unlucky enough to ride a Suzuki ) but yes they cross the centre line yes they split lanes , yes they do wheel stands , but with a reasonable amount of care
    Bruce on the other hand goes sailing round corners not knowing, sailing down a long line of slower vehicles , fails to see the ute pulling out
    or the classic , she just pulled out on me
    no thank you
    give me European roads , and riders and I feel quite safe

    Queens birthday weekend on the way to Akaroa , I would feel ( or be ) safer walking though the Wakari Hotel ( south Island ) with a kiss me Colin tee shirt on

    ONE thing,,I do get irked about is those types of video ( and bikes ) do promote a more injurious type of Journey

    Fantastic display of riding from that last R1 video and far out those japs have bigger balls than their reputation for small cock speaks for them. fastbikes have been legends from way back.

    This is what sports bikes are all about

    It is nice to see decent roads that are made with the camber going the correct way. It certainly isn't NZ...

    Everybody can ride like that on a modern sportsbike but not everyone will last as long.
    Lots of fun for the moment but if they ride like that often, it's only a matter of time unfortunately.

    Great to watch though but certainly no room for error. One mistake at those speeds and they are going to get a real close, painful look at the scenery.
    If the destination is more important than the journey you aint a biker.

    they certainly seemed to spend more time over the centre line (body or bike or both) than i would be comfortable with... but that being said, the visibility of the camera is poor to say the least - no doubt plenty of those manuvers were well sighted beforehand, they just looked insanely hairy on film.

    the guy brushing the mirror must be thanking his lucky stars still over that one, i defy anyone to say he judged that at those speeds

    lots of mentals in this world, makes for great video if nothing else

    about the mirror...
    is it possible to have been staged?

    after all... the camera was exactly in the right place at the right time...
    how many possibilities to catch it by chance?

    Come on mate that's obvious. It's the good old fastbike boys, they're professionals with this stuff.

    A big thanks to all the brave warriors out there who risk it all for our entertainment. God be with you all.
