Mental.

He/She should take that bike back to the shop. It's obviously faulty!

Standard or Barking tune do you think?

Standard, apart from pipe.

I thought it was absolutely cracking. Pushing it but also in full control, my kind of riding.

 

I would show you another vid but then I'll leave my self in a hole heap of trouble, maybe at the next G2G!

Cracking. :good: It brought a big grin to me face. That's the wonder of biking, enjoyable at any age, however that type of riding is something best viewed on you tube than ridden, for me anyhow.

That is scary. Ended up on the wrong side of the road too often. And in a country where, obviously, nobody ever comes out of side turns so no need to slow down for junctions. For me that is track day riding and has no place on the road. But then, I'm an old fart.

I hope that speedo was showing kph not mph!!  Exciting, but not enough margin for error - especially other people's.

Oh God, sorry but I'm going to have to be boring on this one. The guy was undoubtably a competent rider but phrases like "inappropriate speed" spring to mind. For certain, very few if any of the cars he came up to and overtook would have had any idea that he was there, let alone closing on them at warp speed. It only needed one to turn across him and he would be toast as would the occupants of the vehicle. Speaking as someone who was first on the scene at exactly the kind of accident I've described above, I wouldn't want to go through that again. Sorry, but I think he was a very selfish but talented rider who would be better off at a race track.

I'm with you Chris, the guy has talent and the bike performs incredibly, but that kind of riding is lethal on the road :punishment: . If he's not dead yet, he soon will be if he carries on riding like that, I just hope he doesn't take anyone else with him.

Hi to all!

 

It is exciting to see and hear a bike like this.

But the pilot is suicidal. :clapping:  At some points after overtaking, it stays too long in the wrong track. In some curves, arrives to invade another track. In some straight exits unexpectedly and invades another track. After reducing to get in a few curves, he gives several rings already on the accelerator input curve and the bike tilted.
With this power he might be surprised with several horses being spiked sharply. A dirt or small patch of oil and bye. 
Speed ​​totally incompatible with the route. The pilot is candidate deceased. :punishment:

Crap bike, fronts hardly on the ground so can't steer, clutch is slipping or it's leaving rubber everywhere.

Yeah. My thoughts exacary. Must be running that new fangled Helium gas in the front tire, seems very floaty & the whole bike seems to be easily blown across the road by the wind. Too much carbon fibre probably. The rider needs to eat more cake.
