And we wonder why our insurance is so damn high, asshats like him trying to act like a badass on 2 wheels. Its called RESPECT and common sense.

Who doesn't let their ego go once in a while. I drive, most of the time, sensabiliy and fast acceleration will do it for me or the occasional controlled wheelie. But I'm not going to overstep my bounds in riding to show off, this is what stunting is for and I've learned from that too. Its a good thing we don't stunt on the roads in my area. We got this nice little private road that's owned by a business and we got permission to do some tricks there.
hey jbaz...why are all your bikes awaiting rebuild? 
Because I stunt. The RR and Gixxer were both bought wrecked btw for about 2 grand each. The most expensive bike I have is the F2 believe it or not.

I pray someone is Washington passes a bill so no people like this can get on a bike that powerfull without the knowledge how to use it.
Graded liscenses are what is GRAVELY needed. Todays 600s have the same amount of power as an open class GP race bike of the 80's. This TOO much for those who do not know how to ride yet.
I am sick of paying for the insurence rates that come with crashes like this.
I am sick of seeing dead or dieing kids come through the ER where I work.
America needs to make a system that forces people to start on smaller bikes. We need the 400 class bike like the FZR400 back. I want people to be FORCED to ride a bike that is not to powerful to kill them with a rear wheel breaking loose into a highside.
Would this have saved this kid? Who knows? Lord knows he would not have attempted to pass so many cars if he was riding a 60HP FZR400.
Too much HP in the hands of a weak mind can get you killed.
If you think it does not affect you, think about this. What would have happened if this guy had Tboned a car full of children? YOUR CHILDREN!
Keep safe.
Write to your congress rep to ask for a graded liscence. It will save lives and your insurence.
I pray for the kid and thank god he did not kill another.

Hate to say it but there's a reason why Darwin Awards are created. Those who do not take the advice from others will suffer the concequences. Those who are cocky and are over confident in their abilities may sorley be sadden when they find themselves in a hospital. It's not that powerful bikes kill new riders, its just that inexperience kills new riders. I've had quite a bit of people who started out on new 600 or liter bikes, even though I told them they were idiots for doing so, they had the maturity to not become cocky and go 170mph the 1st day.
For every person I teach how to ride a motorcycle, I tell them that its all about how mature you are. Remember, you don't need to go fast, you just have the ability to. While I'm not against a European motorcycle learning policy, I just think the ones who are cocky and make Sports bike riding a bad name should stay home and save their skin.

I can't help but notice the complete and utter lack of compassion from some people in this thread. Would some of you be saying the same things you are saying if it were your friend? Your father? Brother? Anyone close to you? Looking at some of your posts makes me sick to my stomach and shows me how disgusting this world actually is.

Pretty insane that his helmet came off. I think he's lucky to have survived.

Ahh...so it's not just me...I don't know why some people can be so detached and uncompassionate...it's disturbing!

Wow that was beautiful....LOL. To be serious though I definitly agree.
As far as compassion, what about that poor girl that everyone trashed on a prior thread. The video of her getting air lifted, ridiing fast, no helmet. It's so sad that people get seriously hurt/ killed and cats are just like whatever. Like BBLineBacker81 said if it's some close to them everyone else that leaves negative posts are heartless, but if it's some poor bastard they don't know the person is irresponsible, stupid, not a human that got in over their head and made a mistake.
But here at CBR forum some of the posters are perfect and NEVER CRASH or DO ANYTHING STUPID!!!!!!
