That's crazy insane! I had a YZFR1000 that was put up for sale and sold the day after I pushed it up to 160. Way too fast!

Insane. Are you sure that's not a video game? Those sportbike guys are nuts. There's a huge sportbike community in Tampa and I used to see those guys doing tricks all the time. I was driving home for lunch one day on an expressway that's relatively congested. I was going about 55 mph and there were a few cars in front of me as well as two sport bikes. The bikes sped up a bit to get ahead of the flow of traffic. One of the guys started looking over his shoulder and i knew something was up. He freaking stood STRAIGHT up on his seat with his arms extended to the sides like a cross. He had to have been going at least 65 mph. I slowed down a lot as I knew this guy was suicidal. After he stood up for a sec, he sat back down, popped a wheelie and raced away. IN-SANE

My nephew is part of that sportbike community in Tampa. He would send me pics of him doing stuff like that on the freeways. Wheelies between cars, standing on seats, speeding @ 140 plus...Luckily he has calmed down after having his daughter but still test fate from time to time..but you are right..INSANE!
