It also goes on to say that it was fortunate that the traffic was light and the rider stayed on the backroads and away from urban areas. I would think this bit was planned.

So who was test riding a GSXR1000 yesterday morning around the manawatu?

Record? 190km/hr? Did he throw it away? Did he kill himself? Why did the rider take the roads with lighter traffic? Was it safer to ride on those roads? Hmmm, was the rider actually thinking then? Would he have gone slower on more congested roads? It's so annoying when I hear this propaganda and supposition from the news services (read: police). They're all scared shivering bunnies out there (or at least that 's what the man wants them/ us to be)

I just posted up quite a long post about my thoughts on the media and the way they portray event but my completely shit internet connection has this fucking annoying habit of cutting out just after I type too much losing what I have typed. fuck it.

General idea was that the guy was probably doing 141km when a cop showed up and weighed up the losing licence for 28 days or twisting the throttle. Looks like he made the right decision.

All things being the same ... no traffic... back roads... I cant say I wouldn't have done the same.

It wasn't me guys, honest. Isn't 190 over the speed limit? And besides, both of my bikes have red on them as well, so it couldn't have been me, right?

**Colapop** · 18th May 2007, 22:14

sure

I would have thought your bikes at 190 would have brown on them.....

Darling, I would like to remind you that 190 is against the law

About as often as you

& my only excuse is I have no speedo, & since I am out the back I just figure that I am never speeding since I can not keep up with you while your heading off into the distance
