Best to keep speeds like this on the track.

And they wonder why their insurance is so high. I hate to see people bragging about how fast they have ridden their bikes and how fast they have taken a corner. And worse yet claiming that they have outrun police officers. These people don't deserve to have a drivers license let alone a motorcycle license. I live to ride and ride to live. I have no desire to see how fast my bike can go or how fast I can corner. I don't even want my knees to come near the asphalt. The idea that they are invincible, I too am surprised he wore a helmet.

The exact reason I bought a bike for the track only. Funny thing is when I go to the track I see these guys showing up with sportbikes that are the hero's of their neighborhood. They go on and on about how fast they are. One session on the track and you can see it all over them what they just found out they don't know about riding at speed.
Summers coming. There will be plenty more organs available for donation by the end.
That there is a perfect example of Darwinism at work.

I had a friend and her sister nearly killed by a rider on a Kawasaki Ninja a number of years ago. The Ninja was travelling at approximately 150 when the rider lost control, crossed the centerline, and hit her pickup head on. The rider's body came through the cab of the truck, nearly killing them both.
Needless to say, the rider did not survive.
Wonder if it was worth it?

Speed and stupidity don't go well together. If you want to go 120 take to the track and see what you're really made of.

Yes Bikes/cars/any fast moving vehicle & stupidity do not go together.
