BMW S1000RR - extremely close call with oncoming SUV

Gizmag feature writer Loz Blain taped this frightening footage as he was testing the BMW S1000RR for our next video motorcycle review ... (full story at http://www.gizmag.com/close-call-bmw-s1000rr/19667/)

An SUV ran wide into the oncoming lane on a blind, cresting left hander and missed Loz and his pillion by a whisker.

Stay tuned for the full review - but you can be sure the BMW's excellent ABS system will rate a mention for how effectively it handles on grass and gravel.

Looked like he was going into a corner and the truck swung wide not seeing him. Shit happens. If you ride a bike, that's the chance you take. Glad he was ok though.

F-ing hate cagers. If they all had to ride a bike most would die within a week because of sheer stupidity.

AND THIS my friends is why young riders should never jump on a high cc sports bike with low experience. Your chances of getting out of what just happened would be close to 0
