WATCH FROM 2:40. I don't know if I'd enjoy my riding buddy taking pictures of me getting loaded on a stretcher. How about putting the camera down and being a friend?

Did his insurance total the bike?

@dalotel

In all fairness, he asked me to take the pictures. No, insurance repaired the bike. Last I saw it, it was back to new.

@track2wheels Funny how Harley riders think. That Tractor King bike of his didn't do very well. Metzeler tires? Hard as plastic, poor traction. Just wondering if it was all rider error. I'm very glad to see you on a KAWASAKI. That bike can handle the turn twice as fast as any Tractor King Harley makes. Funny how you knew to film him catching up.

@dalotel I ride both the kawi (my track bike -- rarely gets out on the street cause it's missing certain street components) and my Aprilia Tuono. The Tuono is a blast to ride out there. Another buddy of mine rides a Concours like it's a 600 supersport on these same roads. You can see it in one of the other vids I've posted but I dislike going that fast on the street. Since I'm the only one of us with a camera, I usually end up riding chase to film.

Most boring video I´ve seen. Ever heard about editing?

But I have to admit, that I´m happy nobody got serious injuries.

LOL - that WAS edited. The rest of that ride is 40 minutes. The rider asked me to show more than just the wreck so I did.

Don't blame the Harley, he would have wiped out if it was a Vespa. Take a riding course.

He released the rear brake after locking it up. That will throw you to the ground quicker than lightning! Your never too old to take a rider safety coarse.

@tdreed64 You might sell your bike and use the money to learn how to spell "hating" and writing in complete sentences. Retarded mentality of calling someone chicken doesn't erase the fact the bike is a death trap of 50 year old technology I'd never be found dead or live vibrating on one.

@dalotel hateing on harleys cause you to chicken shit to ride one?
