wonder what happened and what they are thinking....the hd shop one especially - if it was his bike...must know how to ride..saw another youtube video with a guy hit a car with an electra glide classic or ultra, looked the same - must hit the throttle down and then....then I wonder - why would they not let off or does the speed prevent them....freaky , funny, but freaky - guy could get hurt badly or hurt someone else badly!

I had a buddy who used to work as the parts manager at a Suz/Kaw/BMW dealer. The whole front of the store was plate glass and it sat right on the road. I can think of at least three times, sitting there on a Saturday that we watched someone take delivery of their brand new sport bike and then highside themselves to the moon pulling out of the parking lot. The best one was the guy who wanted to claim it under warranty because something was obviously defective with the rear tire.
