Get this, there is a guy on my local forum who says he see's nothing wrong with the vid. I asked if he was serious and he said "dead serious". Well he got that part right I guess. Take it to the track.
I think this guy might actually be worse http://www.youtube.com/swf/l.swf?swf...cle%20Insanity. Is he riding on a 120 size rear tire, boosted or what? Darwin will prevail. Always does.

I see two likely possibilities one he kills only himself or two his riding buddy doesn't see his recless friend passing him on the right while doing a wheelie and both the idiots take each other out. This kinda thing is why they probably will limit hp on bikes someday, forget giving us a bad name what about stupid consequences for the restof us.

Eventually, that kind of riding on the street is self correcting. Just be glad that it improves the gene pool.

I'm not too worried about Aholes like that. I don't believe we're all judged by the actions of the few idiots any more than when we see kids in cars doing stupid stuff. Too bad judges aren't give the ability to take away that dope's bike for a stretch instead of another ticket.
Kids will ride w/o a license or with too many speeding tickets. Tough to ride w/o the bike. Have them work on a meat wagon or in the morgue for a few weeks. Give them plenty of time to think.

So true. One of my friends has a red GSXR 1000 and does this kinda stuff . It's crazy, when we are on a back road where you can see for miles he only goes 40. When we get into town, he won't go under 80, passing cars on the shoulder and exactly like this guy on the video. I think the guy doing the videoing was on a gsxr also. Maybe its a gsxr thing???
Whenever I met those wackos, I'd just tell myself "better you not me, duds!"

It only "sorta" improves the gene pool. Most of the ones who need cleansing wouldn't even consider getting on a bike.
IMO, it's weakening the gene pool. Some of these riders have talent, just not the common sense. The ones without either are sitting at home reproducing like rabbits, and welching off everyone else.

I think "idiot" might be an understatement. The upside to stuff like this is that being a prudent rider (and it seems like almost everyone this site is for the most part), you can get complacent when it comes to defensive riding. If anything, this kind of stuff reminds you of your own mortality and serves as that wake up call we all need now and then.

That kind or riding is completely irresponsible; don’t put other people in danger which is what I am seeing. These riders have considerable skill but a total lack of respect for others. I am glad the bikes of my testosterone filled youth did not make much more that 65HP because I may have killed myself on a GSXR1000. I also don’t like the ‘look at me’ ego element I sense is at play here. I would not have as much trouble with it if they were on a deserted road but in traffic it is a real dangerous game, not just for the foolish rider but for the other people around them. If they think they are that good they should be on a race track not on public roads – BTW what was he riding; if it said I missed it.

It only takes a few little stones, let alone a care changing lanes for these guys to not be riding for a while.
I think this even goes beyond the realm of track riding. Track riding is purposeful and even fluid. This is just plain stoopit
