    You'd think with all that tech they'd stick a damn camera on the bike so we didnt have to wait for the lard arse camera man to waddle up and get us the money shots

    Cool Ah yes...

    Impressive. An old man dressed only in suit pants, dress shoes and T-shirt on the sidewalk next to a busy street straddling the fastest battery powered bike in the world weighing 250Kg tells us "I don't normally do this, I am not the rider but the bike does 0 - 60 miles/h in less then a second and produces 400Hp" He then takes a handful of throttle on a spot of petrol..and woooosssh - crash - hospital. Sorry if I have no symphaty apart from for the innocent cage driver.

    May the bridges I burn light the way.

    Hmmm,...no helmet or safety,...wonder what his sponsors would have to say about that.
    Be no good without batteries !!

    It is hard to feel sorry for him, esp doing a burnout on a sidewalk and not knowing what he was doing. What if he had hit someone.

    Seems to be remarkably little damage for a crash at that velocity

    Had a second (and third) look and...

    -Surely a guy with his brain would make sure there was minimal risk for him to smash his pride. (And him self too...)
    -The guy lies flat on his back. Would you lie like that if you had crashed in to a car?
    -He is a distance from the bike. But we never get to see where the bike is in relation to him.
    -No blood...Every crash I have had has made me bleed. And ripped my clothes...
    -Nobody administering first aid...
    -The bike has hit the car behind the front wheel and got wedged in. No damage to bike or car. Luck or...
    -Sadly the film crew does do a poor job of filming the crash. Or perhaps they did a brilliant job not showing us what really happened...

    Conclusion: We have been had. No crash happened. A public stunt that creates interest in a battery driven toy.

    Successful advertising or a late grasp effort to get some interest? We will see.

    yep. im with you on this one. Hoax.

    No way.. would be heaps of damage.. and he surely would have been bleeding from his head at least.. that would have smacked the ground with no lid.. being the weight of a bowling ball.
