Uhh..WTF.. he didn't see that coming??  I saw the trucks just before he passed the silver Mercedes.  Would have been much clearer in real life.  Plenty of time to let off the gas and brake..  :dash2:

Murphy was not fast enough or at least not willing to complete the job, too bad, he gives motorcyclist a bad name.... Enter a meat grinder, expect to leave as ground meat.... I hope he learns from this and lives a long and healthy life, two wheels or not....

Lane filtering (between stationary or very slow moving traffic) here is normal practice. Hence, you get a very finely tuned feel for the width of you bike. I didn't realise just how fine until I replaced my mirrors with CBR units.
In the first few weeks I clipped a surprising number of cars in the traffic and even in my own driveway.

But this bloke? How do misjudge something that badly.

What a dick, I bet next time he's on a bike he'll turn his brain on and open his eyes.

Too young to be old but old enough to know better.

What a moron!, He was probably video taping to show is "Excellent riding abilities" but forgot where the brakes are on his bike, Hopefully the crash knocked some brains into his little head

I get a finely tuned feeling on the width of my dirt bike bars riding between trees, but I never get that feeling on my street bike when I'm running panniers.  Don't tell my wife, but there's probably a few scuff marks on her car from me backing my bike out of the garage.

I'm surprised no-one blamed the Suzuki Bandit for his crash, whats wrong with you guys? (popcorn) You wouldn't catch an FJ owner doing something that stupid---apart from an FJR1300 rider in the last video (probably made by an irate Bandit owner)    
First major bike in my life was a Mach III widow maker.
My Second permanent bike 1978 Z1R (owned since Dec 1977)
My Third permanent bike is the 89 FJ12 - nice and fast
Forth bike 89 FJ12 my totally standard workhorse
81 GPZ1100 hybrid - what a bike, built to sell but I can't part with it

Not his fault blame the council that made a roundabout 6ft under ground.
Anyway who filmed this, the Suzuki bandit club?
