Simply stupid. To even consider doing anything close to those speeds, you definitely need to be in full leathers. But seriously, If anyone wants to ride like that, bring it the track where you are not as likely to put your life and other people's lives in danger.

Speaking of motorcyclist and bicyclist... Clench and also an example of "target fixation..." Love this guys channel btw...
Damn, that poor cyclist could easily have been killed.
That dude was not able to brake or to maneuver, what the hell is he doing on a bike?

I remember this video from a couple years ago. Those guys definitely decided to push the envelope.

I have to ask, what makes you say the Honda is a better ride than the S1Krr?

Just curious because out of all of the bikes I've owned, my former BMW was the best quality in performance, comfort and "bonding".

I can admit I've never ridden a Repsol, so curious to how you came to your conclusion.

No, unfortunately you can't. Between the blood thundering through your ears, the sound of your breathing and the sound of the tires rolling on the pavement; a cyclist can't here a motorcycle until it's too late. They zip by us out in the hills (same place i used to ride my sport bikes) and by the time you hear something and turn your head, they are passing you.

If they are going slow, you can hear them with enough time to turn around and see them before they pass you. Can always here the Harleys, but almost never the sport bikes.

It's the sport bikes that freak us out the most because it's noting going on, no one behind you, then loud as hell and you can feel the air pressure push and pull on you as they pass. They aren't doing it to be dicks, they're just out riding, as i was. But it kind of makes me feel bad about being oblivious of the same thing years ago on my RC51.

wow these dudes are insane!!!! I wouldn't even dare ever using the shoulder that's where all hell everything gets lost... I'm impressed they way the bike performed on the shoulders, maybe those roads have really clean shoulders, here in florida they are full of gravel, dirt and whatever piece of vehicle swept over from a wreck

You never pass people on the shoulder and you ride sport bike Sure if find that hard to believe. If you ever did ride with pack you know you did worst than passing people on the shoulder just saying

Kind of awkward for them to ride motorcycles in a velodrome.

That guy was flying between those cars!!

What city was that...? Those tunnels were pretty cool and the pavement seemed flawless.

Can't ride like that in my neck of the woods. Between the distracted drivers who can't hold a lane, traffic congestion 18 hour out of the day and the potholes and "speed bumps" that litter our high ways... there is just nowhere to play like that around here
