Dude I'm not even goning to bother arguing with you. Yes I've ridden all my life. Yes I've done that exact shit and obviously lived.
No it doesn't take skill to HIT 150, it takes skill to SUSTAIN 150 in vigrin-in-church-tight-traffic and stay on top of your countersteering and far enough ahead of yourself to thread the needle like the guy in the video.
It's worth noting that I just got rid of my bike for this exact reason though. I was so comfortable on it, if I was in a bad mood or just feeling randy I'll do 170 as soon as I got on the hwy and not slow down till I get to my exit. It stopped scaring me and I was so comfortable doing stupid shit I'd do it all the time as if it was the speed limit. I've been arrested because of it, friends have died and I've had some seriously close calls myself. It was time to call it quits before something happened and yes I am fully aware of the dangers in keeping up with that lifestyle so please save your preachy shit for someone who hasn't been there and done that literally hundreds and hundreds of times over the years.
The guy in the video rips. If you refuse to recognize his skill, I'd say you're just being a hater, hence your opinion on this matter meaning less than nothing to me. That fact that you ride makes your statement even more sad. Stop it.
hahahahaha you're so full of shit. Like I said, you're a fucking retard. Go back to dirt bikes and stay there since street bikes are too easy anyways. I hear they ride themselves nowadays.
Hahahaha oh man I was waiting for you to explain to us what exactly makes you so mind blowingly superior to the guy in the OP- I knew it was only a matter of time before you clued us in to the source of your true riding dominance which you feel is now in question- as outlined in my first post about you which you literally just proved to a T hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Oh man, good laugh. Did you not read where I said I dirtbiked my whole life? Streetbikes are what dirtbikers do when they grow up fyi. 40 on a dirtbike? LOL. What about after second gear!?!?? I don't know what "rode street bikes plenty" means or what you think it entitles you to, but knocking sick riders isn't it. It just shows that you have a lot of growing to do as a rider and you're an insecure, defensive fucker to boot. Nothing bad about that, unless of course you are going to talk shit because you rode a friend's R6 a couple times or something and you think you can just do anything @ 165 because you're so rad. Have you ever even owned your own streetbike there, Valentino? I have owned several over the course of the last 13 or so years street riding, taken several performance rider courses, honed my own skills to the point of ultimate trust and can recognize riding skill from a mile away- and I have been in the saddle long enough to have respect for the talent and ballsiness of other people. Your inferiority complex and sense of insecurity apparently does not allow you to do so. Oh well, haters gonna hate. Carry on. Ride safe out there.
