Heard the guy damn near tore his thumb off.. don't try to copy him Kawboy

The trick coming back down is to land on the downslope.  He almost went too far and just about landed on the flat.  That's probably where he messed his thumb up.   [thumbsup] [clap]  That's alright.  I've been banned from Vegas.  Maybe I'll work on the the Rio Grand Gorge outside of Taos.   [evil]

All I know is that I think I experienced my first hot flash when he started circling to go down.  Made me woozy.   [laugh]

That is truly insane!!, bad enough going up, Major stones to go back down.  wonder how many practice runs he made, if any.I'm sure we'll see some kid try something likr that soon, set a whole new standard...

that is a whole bunch of different kinds of crazy!!!

This is what happens when you go over twice the speedlimit in town (Hamburg):

Don't mind the commercial at the beginning......might help you brush up on your German though ;D

holy shit, that bike was hauling...totally the bikers fault.  sad.  looks like he even had a case of the target fixations!

Great observation....that's the first thing that came to mind when I watched his path..all he had to do is stay in his lane. Luckily he survived with serious injuries...safety gear is required by law.

Ouch! Yeah, I'd definitely agree he had an oh, shit moment and it paralyzed him right into the car. Kowboy.... exactly my thoughts about the landing as well. In the slow-mo replay you can see him almost get thrown over the bars when the front-end slams down.

Damn.  I had to respond to a bike vs car accident when I was in England, right off base.  Spanish national t-boned a little brit car at speed.  Went through the car and took off the driver's noggin on his way out.  Not a good day.   

That would leave a stain!

good thread.. :-)  [popcorn]

I was fascinated by that video.  I watched it several times as it is very similar to my November 2007 accident.  I had a median on my left as the option.  I always wondered what my bike did after the impact and this is as close as I can imagine.  Also, his flight over the car was exactly what I did, with the exception of the landing.  I landed flat on my back.     Ouch!!!   Glad he survived. 

That's funny... I thought of you as soon as I saw it!  I agree: very glad he survived.

LOL, I think of her every time I see a human take flight in traffic  [laugh] .... seriously though, why the instant connection?  ???

Just the way she described her "flight".  I imagined it to be very similar.

Yeah, that guy added much more technical difficulty to his trick.  He seemed to have squeezed in a 3/4 layout WITH a 1 1/2 twist.   He stuck the landing.  Whereas I did the much less technical 3/4 layout and bobbled the landing apparently still in a pike position from the topography of the hematoma on my right cheek.
  Scottish, you said my bike appeared to have 360'ed from the marks on the tankand frame.  That guys just hit the car and bounced off to the side.  That did not compute.

Anytime I see anyone in human-cannonball mode, I think of myself.  Rocket man!!!!!!!!  Glad that one is behind me.  Older and wiser. 

You'll always be my Rocket WOman.

 [laugh] [laugh] [laugh]

Yeah from the damage I'm pretty sure the Dragon landed upside down on the rear end....









hehehehe... HONEY! I gotta idea, come here Mrs. WDB!  [evil]

Why does it take 5 Germans to change a tire?

http://www.wimp.com/motorcyclestunt/ (http://www.wimp.com/motorcyclestunt/)

Well, there is the German way ......and the regular way  ;D
Nice find [clap]

Hey Zaster, I was wondering if you had any input about this.  Looks to me like the German way is very impressive.  No lift required.   ;D

GERMANS are hardcore,  [thumbsup]

Something Kawboy would do:
Travis Pastrana 1st Double Backflip in Competition XGAMES (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VngJrAIzFNE&feature=related#lq-lq2-hq-vhq)

And in his younger days:
Travis Pastrana Backflip Tricycle.  ALL THREE ATTEMPTS (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UaE_LWDDWk#lq-lq2-hq-vhq)

That is tooooo cool!!!!  Pastrana ROCKS!  Hmmm...I think I still have a big wheel somewhere in my garage...  8)

Don't get any ideas now ;D [laugh]

Like what? It's probably to pretty with metal flake paint and pin-stripes.   [cheeky]

Maybe yours, but mine was turquoise with stickers. Pfft...

 :(

I never even had one.  My little brother got one and I was told I was too big for it and never was allowed to ride it.  That always looked like a blast.

You couldn't possibly be bigger than Pastrana...I'm just sayin'

 [laugh] [laugh] [laugh]  You sent me on a coughing jag I got to laughing so hard.  I have to wonder if Patrana's hasn't been ruggedized!  I'M JUST SAYING!!!  He is doing 30 ft jumps there.  I'd thnk the plastic would crack in half under his weight.  My brother's had a little tag on it that said max weight limit was 45 or 50 lbs. and I was in 5th grade at the time.  I am sure I weighed more that 50 lbs. so I was banned from the big wheel.   >:(

Wow, you have a memory like a steel trap!  I do seem to remember now that they were pretty flimsy and agree that Pastrana's was "ruggetized".  But I am always good for a ribbing.  [cheeky]

I was amused and its a full video.. :)   :-*

You know it seems without fail that showing off will put your dick in the dirt faster than anything. God hates the prideful and will humble you for sure.

You talkin' to me?   

  [cheeky]

Guilty much? No actually I was thinking about the time I was drunk doing a mad smokin' burn out on my 1100 when the rear hooked up and the bike shot off across the parking lot and me looking like a fool standing there looking after it. Or the time I was showing off (drunk again) cornering hard and hitting the gravel. It was at sunset and man the exhaust made the prettiest shower of sparks in the gloaming as bike slid along on it's side... boy I'm glad I quit drinking.  [cheeky] Sorry Mom, I don't think I'd meantioned those to you before.

 [clap] [clap] [clap]

What concerns me most is this "corning hard".  Is it something you're eating or did you also spend some time in the pokey that you haven't told me about.  All the rest I already suspected since mysterious abrasions and dents would appear on your bike now and again.

I do miss the Autobahn but looking at the speedometer on this bike (km/hr) is just nuts:
Crazy Motorrad fahrer Lebensmüde Highspeed auf der Autobahn (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTVlR7QD8ws&feature=email#normal)





If my math is right we are talking 190 mph...anyone recognize the make and model?

This guy has a hard time learning from his mishap:
German ghostrider crashes at 140km/h! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfKsPqvwG-U&feature=email#normal)







The gear did save the bonehead....he did this on a narrow rural road

Wow! You musta been right on top of that post. I saw that and went back and edited it before it could even give an "edited" time mark at the bottom.

Yeah, that's either a 99 or a 2000 Honda Blackbird.  I've had my 99 up to 182 on the speedo coming back from the crest... for just a few seconds.  Things happen at an alarming rate at that pace and I have rarely taken it over 160 since.  I've heard of others in the Blackbird family that have taken a stock up to 190+, and nobody will admit to over 200 on the board since it just doesn't make the power necessary to push air at that speed without at least a built engine.  That being said, they might have changed a sprocket for better low end acceleration and that would show 200 on the speedo without too much effort.  Most of the guys are starting to turbo them now, putting the air intake in place of the headlight and doing some crazy plumbing jobs.  I like mine just the way it is, plenty of power to get me in some serious trouble.

 I do that down Central daily.    ;)

I would be surprised if honda was still running a mechanical speed sensor on those. Hondas has always been an innovator, I'd expect them to run a mag sensor they same as newer Monsters, if so the sprocket combo wouldn't make a wit of difference. I am surprised to hear that your Blackbird will do 200mph, the zx-14 and Busa(fastest production bikes) are governed at 187mph and won't go faster without an aftermarket chip. You saw that that Blackbird went up to 300kph? That is the fabled 187mph, The big four out of Japan have agreed on a gentlmens arrangement not to excede that in an effort to self police so the countries they sell bikes in don't pass legislation to curtail their hp numbers.

Yeah, sometimes what's in my brain and what gets read is two different things.  What I was meaning was there is no stock Blackbird that will clear 200.  190 is pretty impressive and I haven't gotten mine over the indicated 182.

http://www.theautochannel.com/vehicles/new/reviews/motorcycles/1999/abachofen_suzuki_honda.html (http://www.theautochannel.com/vehicles/new/reviews/motorcycles/1999/abachofen_suzuki_honda.html)

Chart at the bottom shows a shootout with a Busa and a Bird.  Bird at 185+mph, Busa at 200+ mph.  I'm thinking you are right about the speedo not being mechanical.

Sorry if I sounded out of sorts, sometimes I can't the brain...

[laugh] It's all good, I was just wondering. Sometimes I don't brain well either.

I know this is not what our group is about but was reminded by this clip how much fun it
is to be one with your bike. I think HP has been hanging with these guys [laugh] ;D

 :o  wow, that's about all I can say to both those videos.

Minute 8:45 it gets interesting.  Good thing for the little guard rail or mr bimota would have been Superman on that cliff.  lol, like how the bicyclists just strolled on by after....cant blame em after being passed at those speeds.  Douchenozzels deserve to eat the douche in my mind.

 [clap] [bacon] [popcorn]

Yeah, they did exhibit some skills but in an entirely inappropriate time and place.

Damn.

Anywhere on the street is "an entirely inappropriate time and place"....but it never stopped me from doing it.  Act like you never have.   [evil]

Oh, I couldn't do that. It was the above mentioned bicycle and foot traffic that put it over the edge for me. To easy to come around a corner on a couple cyclist riding side by side maybe topping 20mph. No way you could react in time imo.

You mean like the Crest?   ;D

:o Don't go there!






 [laugh]

Been there done that  [evil] in a safe way ...hopefully [cheeky]

Would a "safe way" being sure that there is a large bush to land in?  [laugh]

Wow, Scottish....we haven't met, yet, but I think I kinda like you.   [evil]  Ya dirty bastage.   ;D

Once you've got the front wheel off the ground don't freakin floor it. There is supposed to be a delicate balance once you are up in the air. This came from a craigslist bike for sale. I dont think I am going to buy this one.

That right there is why you don't see me pulling wheelies.  That and the memory of me accidentally cracking the throttle of my older brother's minibike and going right up the front steps and nearly through the door.  I couldn't back it off due to inexperience and the g-forces of being thrown backward.   [laugh] I was in 5th grade at the time.  Did it later on my little YZ80 when I was 17 when I was roll-starting it.    I have also had a couple of harrowing experiences involving wide open throttles on snowmobiles that are noteworthy.  So I can relate to what was going on with that chap.  I never have learned to get the front end up, but I have practiced full gainers off the diving board to prep myself mentally.  

On a side-note, my ex-husband, who taught me how to ride, had a shelf of trophies testifying to his wheelie prowess.  Scottish picked up his talent, but I never did.

Not so, I can do them... I'm not very good at them. I'd rather drift.  [cheeky]



On a side note... DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!!!

Watched the video.  I wonder if he was on crack or just crack-ish.

Any bets on whether this guy is already dead.  I read some of the comments associated with this video and more than a few commented on his "skill".  It may be just me, but STUPIDITY is not a skill.  I'm glad he's over in Europe somewhere.  I don't want him on my roads.  Just my opinion.   [coffee]

I started riding these bikes a few months ago as a way to get a workout going to the train & back each day.  Now, I'm  addicted. 
 

I wonder how many scars and broken bones he has accumulated over the years practicing?  nuts!

3 collar bones this year.   

I had lunch today with my mom. And she said, "After a broken back, femur, arm compound, tib / fib... twice, tore your left ear half off, left knee replaced, 3 concussions (Which is my excuse for suddenly forgetting things), had a brake lever puncture your abdominal wall & can't feel 1 finger & 3 teeth to this day. After all these years, why would I ask why now".
Then she said " Keep doing what you do. It makes you happy, & the people that get to see it".... "You do have insurance, don't you?" 

Thanks, Momma

Hildo´s Harley vs Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXsoAdh5P5g#)

Karl,
This is really some funny shit...!....    [cheeky]

The old guy is wily and he has done this before.  But, wow that's an ugly Harley....

There are at least two reasons why the fellow with CBR1000RR gets beat.  The first is that he should launch differently.  He needs to see about 9 grand on the tach, then quickly and smoothly slip the clutch out at the edge of tire traction while pegging the throttle.  It's fairly easy to say, but it requires practice.     [Dolph]   

The second reason the Honda gets beat is that it is a short race.  The old, crappy Harley beats him off the line because it has bags-O-torque off the bottom.  That makes it easy to just ride off the line for a good start and in a short race like this one, it's all about the start.    

....But it is a very funny video and the bearded, old fart has an unusually, twisted sense of German humor.    ... Maybe all Germans have a strange sense of humor....?      [laugh]

Ed,
Goes to show...V-twins, experience and age are way underrated  ;D [laugh]

Sorry...forgot the Germans [laugh]

Good points...and correct on all counts!     [clap]

Since I'm an old fart, all my relatives are of German ancestry and I ride a V-twin as well as a CBR1000RR, that would put me in good company and squarely on both sides of the fence...!   Hmmmm....    [roll]    Maybe that's why I thought the video was so darn funny...  Keep 'em coming....  I'll look for the next one.

So what went wrong here:  http://www.gaskrank.tv/tv/motorrad-fun/heftiger-motorradunfall-ducati-17683.htm (http://www.gaskrank.tv/tv/motorrad-fun/heftiger-motorradunfall-ducati-17683.htm)
Too much right hand action, surface issue?

I see a skidmark start just as he starts going down, and you can see the front wheel tuck to the left. I think he just locked up the front brakes.

Yes, there is a skid mark that briefly shows up behind the bike in the slow speed video section between 32-33 seconds.  

The black bike rider in front is going quite a bit slower and the curve tightens there so the red bike rider may have tried to slow down.  

It doesn't take much front brake, or rear, while heeled over hard to drop the bike.  As Don Juan has said, it's likely he used too much front brake.  I have seen this happen at the track a few times.  

The red bike rider is pretty lucky that he went under the guard rail and also missed the thick wood support post.  .... scary stuff...   :o

Looks like the rider wasn't well committed to turning, either.  His hips are slightly off to the left, but the bulk of his body is on top of the bike.  Poor body position.  I think he target fixated, as the front wheel is headed toward the guard rail when he tucks it in.

I "accidentally" found the source for the crash video in Karl's previous note.  Apparently the videos are taken on Mulholland Drive in LA.  Weekend camera companies and amateurs set up on some tricky curves.  So do the cops.  Below are some of the many videos from that spot.

This video is like Karl's, but it is an 848 crashing just a little further up the road.  He probably used too much throttle and the rear end lets loose.

He fell down.

I think the guy used too much throttle and forgot that someone built a house there......     [Dolph] 

.... Oh...and... he also violated several California traffic laws and showed a general lack of respect for authority....!             [coffee]                   [leo]

Black Devil - Moscow Ride on R1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XihQeZpwqpE#)

Watch this to the end or scoll to the end.  It gets more intense.... if that is possible...

Karl (code name...  Black Devil) puts his hand over the camera near the end to avoid recording something that would give him away!    ;D

That's some squidery we can all aspire to.  [thumbsup]  [Dolph]

Seen that vid a few times..  the part where he's going against traffic at speed is intense.  Skilled yes.. smart, no...  I've done similar in the car when late, that was over 4 yrs ago. Stupid on my part.. made it from Williamsburg to 219st in the city (fdr) in less then 10 min...

For those of you not familiar with the wilds of NYC, Cokey's achievement borders on the super-natural.

What time of day did this happen?

Had to be at work by 1030..  if I didn't catch the lights on time thigh it wouldn't have happened as fast..  120 mph in the fdr is sketchy of course. I drove it everyday so knew where each bad pothole was..

Maybe you should:

Riding a motorcycle takes good coordination, a sense of space and a keen assessment of risk.

Nah, this is the type of crap those photographers are just hoping for whenever they watch bikers. Friggin' jerks.

Edit: Oh, and on the subject of jerks, some a-hole is driving around Pensacola at night on the freeways in a big black SUV. He runs up on bikers and then sprays paint thinner all over them. There's been four incidents I think and one fatality so far, along with two acquaintance who have wound up in the hospital. Cops of course are doing nothing and the news refuses to run the story.
