How NOT to commute...

[gruntygiggles]

I have done a search and can't find it posted anywhere on here, so here it is...I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. This guy won't learn his lesson one day...if he comes off, there will only be one ending!

Thats the type that gives bikers the idiot image.

I am not the best at searching then

Oh well...good for newbies to see

I suppose this would be a bad time to admit that I have ridden like that on the M1 when I had my GSXR1000 and ZX9R. You just can't help it some days, you realise you have upwards of 140bhp to play with so the red mist comes down and all rational thought goes out the window.

I'm much safer on a 650 twin with massive boxes to make me almost as wide as a car.

I very nearly used the title..."is this how you commute Lozzo"? lol.

Reminded me of diving through London following Spiderman to the Ace...

I guess the upside is that you probably wouldn't need to be too concerned with the pension scheme details at work. Chances are you wouldn't be needing one.

Will all due respect, anybody that rides this way on the road doesn't deserve a licence. What a complete tosser.

My thoughts exactly. Putting your own life and future health at risk is your business. Doing it on public roads where others can be killed, injured and traumatised by your actions is disgraceful. If this guy came off at these speeds on those roads, it would ruin the lives of many!

No amount of urgency, lateness or desire to "just go for it" can be worth the risk, so I do believe it's pure selfishness.
