Pretty cool riding. That bike is a wreck thou. Hate to be the guy who ends up with that sitting on a dealer's floor in a few years.

There is a guy doing a huge wheelie in the video too. Don't know if you saw that part.

The wheelie was awesome, I'd love to see it in person, on a closed street for demonstration, or on a track, or anywhere but a public road.... anywhere if someone got hurt, they were there on purpose, and understood the risks.

Spoken like someone who doesn't have children.

I saw a guy on a rocket doing that, passed me when I was in my cage, he was going 80+. About 5 miles down the interstate, was bike parts and a body laying on the ground. I didn't see it happen, but stopped to offer any assistance. One of the other drivers said a car changed lanes and didn't see the bike. Never touched him but caused the biker to loose control. I bet in that case, it was 100% the bikers fault as everyone standing around was saying the bike passed them doing a wheelie. I guess he did a stoppie pretty quick too.

I can not imagine how the driver of the cage fells today knowing that a biker was seriously hurt.

Keep the stunts and antics off the public roads and take it to a track or parking lot!!
