What's next? Strap a rocket to your a$$ and jump on a skateboard? Hold my beer and watch this. I don't comprehend the need to put your life at risk for a thrill.

I may have at one time but it's all a mystery to me now. ;-) Thank goodness video cameras weren't everywhere back in my younger days.

On principal, its kinda cool...the guy built something that hauls A$$.
I am curious where he got bicycle tires that would handle the centrifugal force of 200+ mph.
Yes the Ferrari is nice, yes the guy on the bike is a tad on the crazy side.

Yea, tires,wheels, really CLEAN track & NO wind. Remember those pulse jet ads in the comics you could buy & put on your bike?

I would worry more about putting on the breaks than the speed ? ? ?

interstingly enough, above a certain speed, the broken yellow yellow line between lanes becomes one continuous line and is easily observable on a motorcycle capable of 150+ MPH.

you get where you want to go rilly, rilly, quickly too,,,,,,,,,
