man, sorry to hear it was a friend Brian . . .

though, I must say, stuff like this happens when you do really dumb stuff (140 in a 35 is a bit excessive)


It's all about balance.

It is an electronic speedo, so just because it was at 140 means nothing. Second, the bike weighs about 550lbs, plus rider weight so if a car is broadsided it will screw the car up. I hate the media......"it is a new breed of motorcycle called a Superbike"....

yeah, I agree that the description of the bike was just plain stupid.

The officer did estimate it was doing 140 and the eyewitness did say in excess of 100, that's all I was getting at.

"new breed of superbike . . ." whatever.

My condolances man.

This always sucks! At least it was rider error and not a damn drunk that caused it. That just pisses me off to no end.
Sorry for the loss, did not even concider that you knew him.
