I don't suppose you know anything about who that is, what's going on, or what wound up happening? That still frame must be part of a video. Someone must know if that guy's alright.
Man, to look at that, all you can really hope is that he lived.

I don't find anything remotely entertaining about someone getting hurt.....go watch Fox.

supposedly from what i heard, it is from a video clip, he lived with only a couple scratches. he was going pretty slow(cant really tell in the photo) because he was doing an ENDO and
[email protected]#cked it up doing 40mph. but even still, one scary pic that makes me have second thoughts about getting a bike

Going slow? Look at the distance from the tire tracks and where the big is at in the air...
I hate seeing people get hurt.. and it always sucks to hurt your toy.
A cowork of mine just bought GSXR 1000 and im always telling to becarefull..... feel like his mom or something

Thats is the main reason I prolly won't ever get a bike, I'm a chicken shit when it comes to bikes. I am a small guy, i'm afraid a fast bike would throw me around. Sure I could juss get a slow bike (still faster than most cars). But I prefer making things as fast as I can, and I have seen some vids of this turbo bike. It poppd a wheelie in the first 4 gears. I think I will stick to a car, it has a better chance of staying on the ground, even though they might fly in the air. I remember seeing an RX-7 vid where he was going for top speed and then the car juss caught air and kept doing flips at like 200mph, very scary. Thats why I need to find a local race track to keep it safe.
I had a Ducati Monster for a few years, got rid of it because of stupid drivers on the road. It's like your invisible! I had my share of near death experiences, think long and hard before buying one, I finnaly came to the conclusion that I didn't have time for hospitals or a permanent limp. It isn't a matter of "if" I fall off, it's "when".
I sold it and bought my 240sx so I could go racing, it's safer!!
one more reason why I dont like 2 wheels

I used to have a couple of bikes. My first was a Suzuki Katana (GSX600) and </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE"> It isn't a matter of "if" I fall off, it's "when". </td></tr></table><span id='postcolor'> Is completely correct. I was rolling down the street w/ a couple of riding friends of mine and we start to pull wheelies. Well I decided to go for a three gear wheelie...well the bike didn't want to go into third and the front end started to come back down so I slammed it into third and hit it but the damn thing didn't go into third it was still in second and when I hit it the bike stood straight up and flipped from underneith me
SCARRY SHIT! All I saw was my bike straight up above me while I was looking up at it. I pushed it away from me and dropped to the ground and slid about 20ft on my ass. Well if I wasn't wearing shorts I may not have hurt soo bad and I didn't have a helment on either. I learned my lesson about pulling wheelies so I went and bought a GSX-r 600 and that som biach would wheelie for days but I had to sell my baby when I went to the Marine Corps
If you want any advice it is this:
1. Buy a capable bike
2. Don't overbuy (if you don't think you can handle a 1000cc don't get it buy a 750cc bike)
3. Ride w/ friends
4. Avoid riding at night
5. Keep up on maintnece
6. ALWAYS RIDE THE hell OUT OF THAT M/F <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/crazy.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':crazy:'> <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>
Be safe and enjoy your bikes

I can't ride on the back of a bike with someone, I always feel like i'm going to fall off.
