I did stupid shit like that back in the day with my DSM and 300ZXTT. I'm talking flat out runs for 30-40 miles in a group of cars that included FD's, DSM's, Fox bodies, F-Bodies, Supra's, WRX's, etc..

Now that i have a wife and kids.. Not worth it.

Even back then though i never ran bikes. If something went wrong and you were involved that's involuntary manslaughter at the least. No thanks... Do your fly bys, do your stoppies at traffic lights, lift the front end from a 65mph roll on, its all good... I'm not running you though.

I would never get that close to a bike running that fast. Hell, I would never get that close to a bike any time.

i only hit 100+ on my bike down straight country roads with cornfields on either side.

All of them are complete idiots. I'm glad they didn't hurt anyone else.

A friend of friends of mine died Sunday at the age of 49...motorcycle accident.

There's several comments on You Tube about this claiming these are not liter bikes but 600's.

If I was his passenger, when he stopped the car, he would get a wholesale ass whoopin'. Just sayin'. Way too much traffic for that shit.

Traffic was clear but the way he came down crooked everytime he hit a bump in the road gave me the willies.

There's a big curve just before my exit and he was behaving in the slow lane with a couple hundred yard lead going into it...

And the stupid comment of his passenger saying...."they don't have brakes like you do". Those bikes can stop faster that that Audi anytime, and being that close was the most dangerous thing. If the two wheelers hit the brakes, he would have run right over them, and probably launched his hotrod like a missle.

Just one car changing lanes at the wrong time and it would have been all over.
