notacop Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I always wanted to do that on Angeles Crest but I haven't written my grave marker yet. Yousa, Yousa the need for speed!! Link to comment

Top speed just a click under 180-mph Rider obviously knows this road intimately. I'll assume he would not have gone wide if opposing traffic were present. EDIT: Not sure that this belongs in "Ride Well" Link to comment
Huzband Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 In addition to the wheelie at the beginning, I especially liked the numerous lane crossings. OK. I did like the wheelie. Ride Well? I think not. Link to comment
Kraynak Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 All that speed,and they didn't even lose control when the bike was struck by lighting.I would say that is riding well. Link to comment
Ken H. Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Fake ! Agreed. The rate of closure of the oncoming vehicles is a dead give away. Plus this person is a terrible rider. Lines so bad they almost aren't lines at all. At +200 kph, I don't think so! Link to comment
Agent_Orange Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Looks real to me. But as long as it's not me on that bike............... Link to comment

TF1200RT Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I always wanted to do that on Angeles Crest but I haven't written my grave marker yet. Yousa, Yousa the need for speed!! I've done that on Angeles Crest at much higher speeds (Turbo 750 Kawasaki) and never crossed over the center line! Luckily, I'm still here . Link to comment
sgendler Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 I didn't think his lines were so bad, given that he was on a shoulderless, public road. I don't use the extreme right side of such roads, either, since it is usually covered in gravel and other detritus. As for crossing the centerline, I know from experience that it is impossible to tell just what the rider can see from an on-bike camera. It looked to me like he only did it when he had a view through the turn. I've certainly straightened a few turns over the years when I could clearly see that there wasn't oncoming traffic.

Frank Cloud Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Wonder what kind of bike it was? Did anyone else notice the add on gear indicator? Link to comment
