We are always hearing, the bashing of the Harley riders on this site. Well this is one for them………..

Pay particular attention to the “safety gear” many of these "Bikers" are wearing.

The comments below are not mine. They came from the forum I found this on.

Check out this Inside Edition feature on Sportbike riders and the stunts they do on public roads and highways. And especially listen to the idiot "founder" of some gang who makes money by filming these stunts, taunting the police and selling them on the web. It's a 12.5MB download but quite interesting.

Yea, its a shame that these stunts make all motorcycle riders look bad to the non riding public.

The intellect behind thier logic is staggering.... 'what are the traffic laws' indeed..... :roll:

I just decided, if I ever see some Gomer playing Stunt God lose it in front of my 10 000 puond 4X4 truck, I am not even attempting evasive manuavers.... unless it looks like I might not nail him, then slight course corrections may be nessessary to ensure I don't.

There is a time and a place for tricks like these - the roads are not that place.

I would think they guy filming and making money could be charged with something, encouraging thos folks.

In this case, youth is certainly wasted on those "kids". "donorcyclists"

Give them my aging, aching, overweight body, to soon be destroyed, and let me have a young body again. At least I'll learn from my mistakes.

I have no pain receptors in my radiator, so punching a hole in one doesn't bother me much :twisted: .....

I'm gonna start wearing my helmet when I drive the cage, just in case 8)
