I dont think that's a repost... I know the other vid you're thinking of bro. The other video I dont recall the guy getting passed, nor the after footage wither. Video Hungarian too, what's up with those guys:confused: .

I'm in Venice bro, we should ride AmbiguousR1

and this is the reason you don't try to pass cars on a turn. i'm sure when the police looked at the video tape from the camera, it was obvious what happened.

they should prolly show vids like these to kids applying for their motorcycle accidents..itd atleast keep the posers away..lol

I don't really think it's the "posers" are the ones are to worry about, it's the ones that buy thses bikes and ride like maniacs on the streets, look at all the other bike on coming in that vid going fast the other way, and then look at all the other bike crashes in the vid on that road.

Wanna push it to the limit on the streets, ur gonna pay for it, save it for the track.

damn thats sad. over a gixxer idiot too. i never ride like that in the day time. that kinda riding on the streets needs to be late at nite when theres no traffic. the gixxer rider must have not of known that corner too well, i know all these local roads like the back of my hand and know exactly how fast i can go through the corner. poor r1 guy...

You know what?... It couldn't of been his friend or someone he really cared about, cause you never put someone at risk by attempting to leave them behind
and making them feel as if they had to keep up.

I'm teaching a buddy now and I would never do that to him, but someone I don't know to well I might if I was in an aggressive riding mood..."let's be honest, we all get like that sooner or later."

It basically comes down to what someone already said, DECISIONS..."a fine line between being brave or stupid." Make smart decisions when taking risks guys...

Bunch of safety-nazis on this site...stupid overtake yes, stupid crash yes...moaning about the people coming the other way? How do you know they were on the limit? That looked like average twisty speed to me....if you're slower than that I don't see why you're on an R1, buy a scooter.

I've nearly had head ons with idoits passing cages in the wrong place and some of them were on R1's not Gixxers.
