It would be lovely to see a gixxer thou power ranger getting skinned by a tourer.

I've always fancied finding a way to make a chop go round a corner and go and embarras some race rep riders.

There's brilliant youtube vids of a guy absolutely tearing through Deal's Gap on a wing... Guarantee you he's faster than I would be on anything. Not by a small amount either.

I can't beleive the comments blaming the "RV" driver for some ar$ehole overtaking beyond his skills.

Thats exactly what i thought! Sure the car driver could have pulled over, but they are not obligated to.

I do think its a brilliant bit of footage though, the fact that not only can they not turn for ****, but the second one follows the first one.

Highly amusing yes, but read the big arguement in the comments. "Funny as f###" doesn't do it justice.

I was about to say the inevitable harley vs sports bike arguments are good. I like this comment:

"you know the difference between a harley and a hoover? the dirt bag is on the inside of a hoover"

LMFAO

Edit- it gets better:

" I WANT A DESERTED PLACE WHERE I CAN HAVE MY WAY WITH YOU "

I saw a 1300 Pan Euro making mincemeat of some sports bikes at Rockingham last year. Me and a couple of the instructors were commenting on his bolt upright riding style when his mate informed us that he's done 20 odd years as a class 1 police rider. He was mentally rapid.
