Really? According to the bobble hats so is off-roading.

I agree, unless it's on a private track, to which their is plenty of access. Can you imagine how fast that bike was passing those cars, the car driver's don't have chance to see it coming. No wonder they are called donor cycles in A&E.
I also watched the turbo bike vid, what a waste, every time the turbo comes in the front wheel lifts, how unsafe is that?

I agree.. as a biker and 4x4 driver I agree that in MOST situations speed is totaly irresponsible -but dont forget that as far as I remember this is a free country where we have freedom of choice....this is the problem with the anti's..today 4x4.. tomorrow ?????????
LIVE AND LET LIVE, just because YOU dont like it - doesnt mean someone else has to suffer....
also how many of OUR 4x4's go faster than 70mph??????? remember that is the speed limit ;)

Mixed feelings on this one... Looks like Germany to me where some of their autobahns have no speed limit. No problem.
However... the speed differential should someone pull out could have been exciting... it was bad enough when the Jag was in the outside lane and he had to brake from 300kph to 100kph. Just looked it up... 300kph = 186mph, the speed differential when he braked..... 200kph = 124mph! :shock:
Having said that... didn't seem to be a problem for the bike.
Impressive whatever camp you sit in.

The speed differential is kinda new pants time when it happens at any speed :roll: I have done sillly things like this in the past :twisted: , not quite that fast , but have now realised that I am just skin and bone :cry:
A little wiser and all that :wink:
The brakes on these bikes are amazing, as you see scrubbing 124mph in a couple of seconds, but did you see the jag in time? I didnt,
Each to their own I think 8) not for the feint hearted
