A tad fast for the street IMO, but his technique isn't the worst, he brakes while upright and throttles through the turn.

He's cookin!

But yeah you never know whats sort of sh*t is on the road to be going that fast.

Don't think they were really going that fast and not really hanging off the bike much either.

Smooth, pretty quick, but dollars to doughnuts he had taken that corner a time or two beforehand and knew it was likely to be clear.

Without blocking the road, the cops won't be able to catch him.   I used to have a 955 Daytona.  Those triples have a pretty unique sound.  Like a Porshe, only faster.

reminds me of something..........on the kank

His line totally blows....
Riding with your helmet in the space of the other lane will kill you...fast.
If I am gonna ride areas like that I give them two runs for checkup on the street quality first, then choose an outer line that leaves room for more leaning.

if you watch the video again you see that they are camped by the corner, so he has spotters to let him know its safe for not and when they stopped im sure they checked the road to make sure it was not slippery.  [moto]

Ha! Maybe you can't outrun the radio signal. But you can outrun the guy using it. If he never gets close enough to see your plate and doesn't know which way you go it's kinda hard for him to tell others where to go. You may not go faster but you can out smart it.

I don't pull that shit anymore, but that old cliche' always made me laugh, I figure it was an officer who wanted to scare people that started it.
