I just found this vid Yogurt vs gasoline

... but the same S4 made an appearance in an episde of their show (HBO - The Neistat Brothers) last night.  If you haven't seen their show, it is a lot like their youtube stuff, except 22 minutes long and thematically connected.  And if you haven't seen their youtube stuff, it is like the video above, except different  :P

Probably be a much different story if lanesharing was allowed in NYC. Reminds me of a comedy sketch I saw where a moped was racing a motorcyclist.

even if it were technically allowed, the cabbies would fight for the space thereby slowing the Duc and the bicycle would still win.
Also, this race depends heavily on time of day.

If my bike ran on any breakfast food, it would, true to its country of origin, run on something like the rider's breakfast:  cappuccino and cigarettes.  The exhaust would smell like an Italian airport.

Sooo.. "one of the world's fastest production bikes".  We're just letting that one go, then?  ;D

Well, if you take all of the bikes in production at the time it was made, it would be in the top half in terms of speed.  ;D

Now, I want to see how many traffic control devices were ignored by the bicycle!

In every town I've called home, a bicycle would win such a race, since it seems bikes (although required to obey all traffic laws) are never punished for BREAKING THE LAW!!!!

If the guy on the S4 were to jump from street, to sidewalk, and back to street to avoid a traffic control device (traffic light) or walk/don't walk light at an intersection, he'd be strung up by his balls!!!
I solve my problems like an adult, at the strip club drinking on a work night.

i dont know what idiot picked the route, but if the motorcycle went the same route  the bike did, it would of lost for sure. u can  go from 92nd st to 59th st in 2 minutes on a motorbike. and from 59th down to franklin in less than 10 minutes.

that's ok. i have had cars throw things at me and i have been hit by cars and they just left.
and motorcyclists do jump curbs and such. it's just harder to maneuver one at speed through a crowded sidewalk.


i have also been chased down by the police and been told not to do whatever it was i jsut did.
