Thanx,
Brijar!!!

what a numb skull :lol:. He should of had some kind of wheel stop for the front wheel.

jnev 09.14.2007 06:12 PM

Oh my, that just hurt watching it. Someone needs to hold the front brake a little harder...

He shoud've spent money learning how to ride motorcycles before he built one.

snellemin 09.14.2007 07:17 PM

that was fast......fast into the minivan. Hey at least it proves that the batteries don't blow up in such a high speed impact. What a numbskull.

squeeforever 09.14.2007 07:59 PM

Wow....

gixxer 09.14.2007 08:02 PM

wow, that really does get up to speed.

suicideneil 09.14.2007 09:25 PM

Ouch.

bdebde 09.14.2007 09:43 PM

KILLacycle is right; that's gotta hurt!

Patrick 09.14.2007 09:53 PM

Wow, took off pretty quick. Did he still have the front brake on when it took off?
For a smart guy that didn't look like a smart thing to do...no helmet (your not allowed to ride a bicycle or motorbike without a helmet, in Australia), no other protective gear, doing a burnout on a drag bike in a public area, and maybe without enough riding skills as well.

crazyjr 09.14.2007 10:05 PM

First problem, he let it creep off the wet cement. Second problem, Not knowing when to stop. Sorry to be so blunt, But I grew up around motorcycles (my dad and bro) and you don't do that without a prepared surface. If he planned to do a burnout, he should have had the driver there.

I just watched the first part of the video... haven't got to the burnout or crash yet. I had to stop it for a second and say... that guy is really annoying. What a boob he is... loser.

Ok... now back to the video to see the idiot wrap it around a minivan, LOL!!!

glassdoctor 09.14.2007 10:50 PM

Ok... just watched the rest of it. WOW. :)

Here was one of the commets someone posted on the host site:

Yes... but what about 60 to 0 mph?!?!
Also demonstrated was it's ability to stop. It successfully went from 60 to 0 in an astonishing .2 seconds... roughly 5 times as impressive as it's 0 to 60 mph figures.


You think he literally forgot how to hit the brakes, or was he not realizing that he wasn't still stopped doing a burnout.... therefore didn't know he should let off the throttle and perhaps use the brakes????????

I give him credit for designing and building such a killa bike! I want one of those almost as muck as the MTT turbine bike! As an owner of a 200mph+ streetbike I know that the burnout is tricky, especially with a high power machine. At 600+ pounds that is a heavier bike and hard to control. It certainly gets traction and seems stable, it did not pull up. Just goes to show that alot of people lack the motor skills to control that kind of power.
