I am saying that because this video is a remembering of the most notorious motorcycle crashes that took place in 2004 during organized hill climbing competitions. And guess what? Things aren’t any different today.
Would I vote this the most dangerous motorcycle sport? Definitely! Just listen to the guy at the end of the video and you’ll feel the same way too.
Which better way to compare a Suzuki Hayabusa with a Kawasaki ZX14 then on a straight line? And which better place to do that then at the O’Reilly Raceway Park at Indianapolis?
The Hayabusa was going for a good run, but it seems that previous burnouts for worming out that rear tire worn it too much, ending up blowing. It is amazing that the rider was still conscious after such a crash and I can understand why it didn’t got up its feet.
If I would relate the word “funny” with “crash”, this would be the video I’d refer to. But, as I do not want to say that, I simply call it bad luck for the pilots and lots of entertaining for the spectators.
As you can see, inspiration strikes racing drivers in some of the most dangerous situations and yet they manage to maintain a practical and cold thinking. How would you react in any of the given layouts?
This year at Laguna Seca there was a stunt session planned and it all went smooth until the safety car made a bumpy entry for stuntman Chris Pfeiffer performing on its tricked out BMW motorcycle.
If “safety” car drivers don’t pay attention when being surrounded by motorcycles, what are we suppose to expect from normal car drivers with lots of problems on their heads? Now really!
A tragedy sheered on the FIM Supersport World Championship! Twenty three years old Craig Jones passed away in the Royal London Hospital after suffering an accident during the Sunday race at Brands Hatch. It lost control and fell of his Team Parkalgar CBR600 Honda at Clark Curve and was unfortunately hit by another racer who came from behind.
After the red flag was raised as Craig laid unconscious on the track the medical staff intervened and then flown Craig by the Kent Air Ambulance to (...) > Full story
Due to the increased risks that British Troops take whilst on operations, they find it difficult adjusting to the risk thresholds of normal civilian life, particularly when on the road where they drive faster and more recklessly. In fact they are twice as likely to die on the road as civilians. Consequently, the British Army commissioned Golley Slater to create a campaign in an effort to alter the behaviour of British troops when they return home from active service.
Computer games have their small monsters in the closet, but Hollywood beats them all. There can be no bigger proof than the scene in Mission Impossible 2 in which Ethan Hunt races around on a Triumph and competition soon arrives on a Suzuki.
Bullets, burnouts, jumps, everything was there for a box-office success. You don’t see this being done any more, but you can’t really say you loved it, don’t you?
Funniest motorcycle crash by two arabs. These two should have never been on a motorcycle in the first place and if they are smart (something that doesn’t emerge from this video) they’ll be staying away from motorcycles as long as they live. And if not, you’ll be seeing them on our site…hopefully!
This guy has got it all wrong! Seeing stunts on the internet isn’t supposed to determine you buy a Kawasaki ZZR600 and try doing the same. In the happiest situation (which is also the one displayed below) you’ll simply fail and make a foul out of yourself.
And the guy filming is a total disaster. He first goes to his friend, next to the bike and back to its friend. “Damn and shit” are apparently his favorite words.
