Yep, nuts!

The part where the Gixxer did the stoppie, holy shit!

he was all over the place like a mad woman's breakfast!

Makes us look like pussy cats when we get out together.
How close were some of the passes between cars and trucks....
NUTS.....

He kept on hitting the edges of the road on left handers.

I like how his mate on the 999 was looking behind a couple of times to say,"have you caught up yet?"

mattyvas · May 10, 2008, 06:45:13 PM

Or are you still upright.
Did you see he had a rear facing camera, maybe to catch his mate having a moment.

Yeah saw that.

I just could not imagine riding like that, just one "OH SHIT!" moment and you're a grease spot on the road.

mattyvas · May 10, 2008, 06:50:30 PM

True that.....
Very happy with my pace right now.
I like that I don't have to grit my teeth and hope that I make it round a corner.
Or to the next one for that matter.

Oh what is it is to be young an immortal!

Maybe I would have done this stupid stuff at 20 but fortunately I am now old enough to know I don't know it all

loony888 · May 11, 2008, 01:39:19 AM

that video proves a few things doesn't it!
1/ horsepower isn't everything! there was no way that gsxr1000 was going to get anywhere near the duke
2/ it IS possible to function with your brain in an esky.
3/ gsxr owners need either slipper clutches, more skill, or both.

omg! if he's not dead yet he will be soon, riding like that, and the rider on the duke is sooo smooth and fast.

mattyvas · May 11, 2008, 05:58:09 AM

For sure the Duc was much smoother and faster and the Gixer was all over the place.
But I think they were both lucky to not be all over an on coming car.

As R_usty said young and immortal is great but older and wiser is the way to stay alive.
Could never have riden when I was younger don't think I would have been here now.
Well not without being injured anyway.

Seriously they need a track.....

BadBoyBubby · May 11, 2008, 04:51:55 PM

Yep.

That kind of stupidity gives us all a bad rep. Some arsehole politician will see that and use uit as 'evidence' that all motorcyclists are stupid.

I hope they don't hurt anyone else when they crash and burn.
