I wouldn't dare to place blame in this video, but I gotta say the biker is totally stupid for thinking that, on a rolling motorcycle at hwy speeds that you should elect to kick a moving car instead of tapping your brakes.

I touched wheels once on the newly built 402 hwy going 120 with another motorcycle going around a curve in the wee hrs of the morning (no traffic but not proud of the racing).

That clip brought back the memories of the adrenaline rush to try to stop the wobble or die if I failed.

I am surprised he just went right back up to high speed, many years ago while on a motorcycle on a freeway a car in front of me didn't respect the lane being closed and went through a bunch of cones which scattered all throughout the lane: this was basically a couple of seconds in front so nothing I could do but hope that 1) I would hit no cones and 2) that if I did I wouldn't fall down and be run over by the rest of the traffic. Luckily I missed all the cones but I had to stop in the emergency lane afterwards to calm down from the adrenaline...

None of that negates what I said about driving safely.

In a legal and technical sense, the car that pulled into the carpool lane is indeed in the wrong.

That doesn't mean Mr. Motorcycle here was driving safely.

See this *related video. Notice the difference in how each driver operated their motorcycle.

Good example of why I was never tempted to ride a motorcycle. There are all sorts of things you cannot possibly avoid or see coming that will kill you.

Strap a Hayabusa motor to something light and with the right gearing, you'll smoke anything in the 1/8 mile as happened here. Motorcycle engines are great off the line for a number of reasons.

I'm dubious of the claim that is a 1050hp Z06, however. Doesn't move like it has the power, sound like it, and there are no trap speeds given. Just a funny, awesome day at the strip. Hats off.

I'd love to see someone doing doughnuts on the fairway and see if those golf claps turn to cheering.

...tears of joy. ;-)

There was one of these in a national forest near me, with wheels attached to numerous trees used as pulleys to hold the downhill rope up and a tireless motorcycle providing power from the top. It's far longer (150-200 yards) and steeper than this one. Now it's abandoned with the motorcycle gone, but it was used for years. Old school.
They used to have these at real commercial slopes with handles attached, they were called T-lifts.

I'm willing to bet most (by number) insurance claims involving motorcycles are the result of dropping them, so that could be a pretty useful thing. I dunno about the part where they transmuted the soul of a horse into it, but the self-balancing is pretty cool.
