Don't Lose Your Head...

...like this guy did, literally. This happened near my house on a usually busy three-lane boulevard. Crash forensics estimated his speed at impact @ 130 mph. He was wearing a full-face yet his jaw was found 700 feet from the scene.

Don't be stupid.

 

Damn!! What about the person in the car? Or was it a parked vehicle with no occupants?

 

Ouch... gotta keep that shit on the race track!

 

HOOO. LEEEE. SHIT!!!

 

the bike was going 130?

 

The driver was the only occupant in the car. She was hospitalized for two days and released with a couple broken bones and heavy bruising. She is lucky as hell.

 

Yeah, given the crush depth, tach (was stuck at 13K rpm), gearing (in 5th gear), and a bunch of other factors in physics they estimated 130, but one of the guys I said said it's very possible he was going 150+. It's a gixxer 750 so it was very possible given that particular stretch of road.

 

Redlined GSXR in 5th, very possible he was pushing the 150 mark... That lady is lucky she survived!

 

Holy Crap!.Makes me think twice about going to fast on a motorcycle.

 

Darwinism at it's finest.

 

yeah, don't... you could go head to head with the smallest of cars and you'll lose every time on a bike.

 

This is why we have track days. Use them.

 

x2 the track here is open about twice a week and it is pretty cheap to get in. <20

 

Full face and his jaw came off....dang.

 

wow. glad the driver survived. pasenger would prob be another story.
wild pic..

 

yet another reason I didnt want a street bike. There to easy to go way to fast, too quick.

 

so the guy on the bike died right?

yeah that lady sure is lucky!

 

And thats why I'm retired from riding.my friend was hit this weekend on his bike.he was doing 60 on his endoro in the right lane.dumb bitch did a three lane sweep from left lane to make the exit and creamed him.he is fine.he lucky he wasn't ran over by anyone on the highway

 

x 100

 

i know that it can happen on a harley, but i KNOW with my luck that would probably happen to me if i owned a sport bike. i wouldnt be able to trust myself. that sucks for the lady. ouch!
