I found this funny video today. Some of you may have seen it. It is really worth watching.
[video: https://www.youtube.com/embed/Fbpv5TIVKg8?feature=oembed]Honda vs police helicopter!
Rides like a twat, he is an IWA

Attention
Twat....
The guy is supposed to be a squid and was only going to the gas station for a drink, right? Then doesn't it seem odd that he was in full leathers, gauntlet gloves, and armored boots? Something very And who in the hell just goes to the gas station for a drink at a 100+ mph?!
I'm thinking it was going to be a staged youtube video that turned into the heli chase. I hope that guy shit his leathers. I hope the video also enables the police to track this douche-bag down. What would have been a speeding ticket- maybe a reckless op -turned into speeding, reckless op, endangering the public, fleeing the scene and anything else they want to come up with.
Whatever the story is, the guy is a grade A asshole.
This is just another reason why people hate motorcycles.
Damn squids
Well, I saw him pass a few people at speed, but Al Capone he ain't. He even stopped for the traffic lights!

I don't think it is staged. It was clearly a police helicopter because of how low it came to the ground. I thought it was funny, but then I love the Three Stooges and the Marx borthers too, so what do I know?

Curly was the best. :beer:
Did we actually see a helicopter?
How did they guy posting the video know where it supposedly was? :rolleyes:

The in-video remarks about the helo are bollox. Unless it was on a straight road quite a few miles long where the bike could get up to 150mph+, the helo would have no issues keeping up.
Riding at those speeds, the guy is an arse, a statistic waiting to happen, and would tragically be likely to include others in that statistic.
Why was the heli after him anyway? Are we now using heavy military-grade assets to hunt down civil offenders? How is that a responsible use of state funds/authority?
Yes, the guy is a moron for riding that fast but let’s get real.
Of course, it may well have been a fake...

Most police forces in US cities have helicopters. I didn't watch the video in full screen or with the sound, but I could see the spotlight on the ground around the bike. It that easy to fake?
Ciao,
We have the dreaded helicopters here in Spain and they are, in my opinion, a far from cost-effective use of tax-payers money but the c*nts who run the country were born with their heads as suppositories and you can smell the corruption from Mars.
In as much as the video, it's squidbait. There, I just invented, or created a novel application for, a term which unofficially (not in any reputable dictionary) may have seen some colloquial use in a different context, which very possibly likely originated in a pre-internet era ...
Squid bait:
A girl that goes after or dates a man in the navy.

American chopper 2.0? :goofy:
Am somewhat surprised Trump/NRA have not yet promoted "better protection of the common folks....."

He didn't out run the heli.
I always like this story.
My RC51 did 177.1MPH (GPS) on an empty Autobahn.
No way that even a factory one will >200mph.
