Shameless steal from PH

Fuck! You must have a proper disregard for your own life to do something like that. All it would take is one person out of the hundreds he passed to not be paying attention, and he'd catch a death.

it looks like the majority of them weren't though. he skidded to a stop a few times, had to slip across 2 lanes a few times as someone was moving into his space, and had to rev to let people know he was there.

pure lunacy. i've seen some impressive riding in some videos before, but that was OTT in my opinion. in those conditions it wasn't impressive. just idiotic.

He's probably dead now

But given that he must know a fair bit about riding a bike, why is he using the clutch on upshifts ?

Why does he have bike control?

All he can do is go fast in a straight line anyone can do that!

I know who I'm hiring for a getaway driver if I ever needed one

Think that takes some balls and skill to be able to do those speeds in the tight space he was given so I for one am very impressed at the ability to be able to do that. The fact it was stupid on so many different levels is another matter.

In my opinion that wasn't impressive in the slightest, majority of the time he was just bombing it down the middle and it was just sheer luck that a car didn't move slightly over and knock him off, especially with the oncoming traffic.

Don't get me wrong I like watching some tasty riding on the road like Stu-pid riding for instance, but this guy just proved he was lucky in a straight line in my opinion.

He probably used the clutch because it`s an R1 didn`t want the box exploding as they are made of cheese.
