Never good to hear. As per the site rules lets keep names out of this thread until it's either in the public domain or family or friends confirm. Thanks.

Crap. Was up there my self yesterday and had a nice day of riding.

Sincere condolences to family and friends. Ride free forever.

Only a matter of time - I hope nobody was surprised.

(Except the innocent rider)

Why anyone is riding up there at Holiday time is beyond me

So the Coro takes another...............wont be the last thats for sure!!

Tragic stuff and RIP and thoughts to the family whoever it is

And speed would not be a factor eh?... eh?....

Shit - two motorcyclists had a head on? Another case of target fixation? RIP rider and condolences to family and friends of everyone involved.

Of course its a factor, if he was just sitting on a bike with side stand out at 0km/h, making engine noises with his mouth...he would have certainly lived...

Nothing to do with the fact that TWO were bikes involved ... huh ... ???

Bro, ignore Scummy.
If he's gotta make his first posts in this thread so juvenile in nature, he doesn't deserve the attention.
There's "wind-ups", (allegedly) his forte; and there's bad taste. In my view, his posts so far in this thread are the result of poor decision making.

Poor decision making KILLS more people than speed ...

your comment seems appropriate considering the thread subject ...

Anyone else would be told "it's a poor topic to troll on", but Scummy is just "winding up drongos". It's all a matter of perspective.

RIP. I hope it wasn't somebody going for the Waikato tag..

Any names been released...
Got a couple of mates up there....

I hate this shit, I hope whoever died did so quickly & painlessly. I also hope it wasn't anyone I know I've been to enough funerals

Hard to say, i wasnt there.... but since its TWO bikes involved that makes it easier for the haters to say "it was the bikers fault" and none of us can argue with that...
