205mph

[citizen]

Lol, so my friend came over the other day and was talking to his dad. After he got off the phone he told me. "Dude my dad's friend got a ticket for 205mph on his bike without a license."
at that point i was like "sweeeeeet." punched him in the face and started to wail on my guitar. all whilst the pirate ship outside my window began to explode (that part is actually real, as there are some old school ships out on the bay playing pirates, but thats another story).

so i was checking alldumb.com today and look what i found

People who ride motorcycles like idiots should all DIAF.

ticket only? Shouldve been thrown in jail and then pistol whipped for being a moron.

[kidinthehall]

People who believe everything they read are retards...........

The actual owner of the bike posts on a sportbike forum im on and pretty much laid out the whole story. He IS a liscenced rider, it just hasnt been renewed. And the bike was later strapped to a dyno where it hit a gear limited 165mph. Its a honda RC51........it would take an obscene amount of money/mods to actually hit 205mph on this bike.

Think

[nlzmo400r]

so why would someone make up that story? either that or the cop can't friggin multiply

[S14DB]

actually it wasnt the cops fault. lets think about this, the cop is sitting in a copter with a stop watch. now unless he starts and stops the stopwatch at the exact momemt the biker passes each line, the time is going to be shorter than it should be. And at that speed(probably 160) everything is amplified. He was not going 205 mph.

People who ride motorcycles like idiots should all DIAF.

And why is this? People doing it in cars put many more people in danger than someone doing it on a bike.

Never said people in cars weren't idiots either, I just run into alot more "Biker Boyz" lately then "2Fast2Furious" wannabes. I don't agree with any type of racing, or reckless behavior on public streets. :down:

[nismo2491]

what is it, even a half second off made the speed 185 if I remember right.

Ok, it's just that I take offense when I see comments like your first one. Because I have been riding streetbikes for about 8 years, and while lately there are more idiots on bikes, for the most part it has been a controlled crowd realizing there is a time and a place for everything. But as long as you think that the car guys that do it are idiots to, then its ok.

And yeah, bringing it up to 5 seconds lost like 30-40 mph. I don't remember how to do it, and what the actual numbers were.

I agree with the assessment that the overzealous cop just hit the button on the stopwatch too fast and it was balooned to 205... 165 is no less a fucking idiotic display and the kid needs his ass whipped as his sentencing...

What is DIAF?
