Did anyone see this?

The host from 'pinks' goes down on a motorcycle...

Best comment I have ever seen: "Rich, will you admit you were outperformed by the motorcycle on that run?"

Yeah, lawl. I don't think he has much experience on sportbikes.

I'll be honest, I've never ridden a sportbike. But I still know that you can't treat them the same as an 800 pound cruiser.

Sigh.

I'm all for racing and speed but doing it unsafely is how you get yourself killed or seriously hurt.

Good thing nobody gets SPEED channel anyways.

I had the opportunity to ride a 2000 GSX-R 750 one time. I knew it was fast, but I was still completely unprepared for the power that machine posessed. 140 hp and < 400 lbs. = Nuts. It went 78 in first gear, and made me want one and deathly afraid at the same time. As the host of the show found out, you can't just go and grab a handfull of throttle...

I respect sportbikes the way I respect shark week. I fear shark week, but can't resist another go.
