Wild video, thanks for posting.
Some Huevos for sure.

If you ride the Amtrac or Metrolink train Ventura county lines, look out the port side windows as the trains heads north just past the AV Valley transfer platform.
You'll soon see two graveyards of wrecked, nearly new crotch rockets.
A real eye opener.

My wife rides a Ninja and safety does hang in the back of my pea sized brain.

Very expensive and difficult to insure them unless you have a spotless driving record.

Without looking it up for verification, I remember hearing some stats that 80% of those bikes are totalled by kids 18-22 with ownership less than 1000 miles.

This guy was doing 187 mph at a few points of his trip. (299 kph)

DogMan · 04-10-2009, 10:54 AM

Wow...he's on a death misson. He'll be a real Ghost Rider soon, geez. Talk about pushin your luck...

rrrr · 04-10-2009, 11:55 AM

Clackers the size of softballs or a brain the size of a pea.

Which one is it?

Wow.

Huckleberry · 04-10-2009, 01:25 PM

There was a time in my life when I would have considered that a challenge!

Today when I watch that, I think I am fine just sitting here letting the dryer shrink my clothes, man I got old fast.

I believe he's from Sweden...and messes with the poice now and then.

Been around for awhile on the internet.

AZJD · 04-10-2009, 05:08 PM

I can understand doing that for a brief stint and I occasionally do so myself but 42 miles at 150+???? His card will be pulled soon....

If not that he'll peel someones car up like a beercan. Those bikes do major damage to cars when they hit them. Nonetheless, that bike hauls the mail for sure!

At about 2:20 he almost got took out by a green van changing lanes. The guy definately has a death wish. I'd do that on a long straight-a-way, but not through traffic like that. He was running a good 299 km/hr for a while. I have a buddy that has a drag 'Busa that opened it up out in West Tx. and hit around 240 mph. Too fast for me

superdave013 · 04-10-2009, 06:29 PM

if you want your busa to run like that ya gotta go see my brother-in-law, Johnny Cheese.

This chick did.

That was about the closest he ever was to any REAL danger

Not impressed at all.. That road for the most part was PRETTY WIDE OPEN, He was even riding on a wide open shoulder....
Bring him to LA and let him try that at 120MPH, Im sure he would not even be able to hold that speed, let alone 80MPH

Everything is dangerous at 187mph. A pothole, blowout, gravel on the road in a curve, etc. etc. Wide open road or not, it doesn't take but one little thing to go wrong and they'll only be finding bits and pieces of him.

AGREED, But what he did was not impressive to me. He basically auled ass on a uncrowded freeway in a damn near straight line, no biggie..SORRY

lipskid · 04-11-2009, 04:06 AM

Agreed, It's not a Busa.

STV_Keith · 04-11-2009, 03:20 PM

Right, he did the Upsala run on a GSXR1000, aspirated bike. The turbo busa he used for a lot of the 200mph wheelie vids. The guy is nuts but can ride the wheels off that thing.

And the speedo stops at 299kph - no telling how fast he's really runing on the top end. The tach does still climb after he hits 299 though.
