The guy on the camera bike was doing about 270 kph - that must have been a 200 mph wheelie. He flew past  :o :o :o

Balls the size of small planets...  ;D

I realise its an adrenalin kick, but what about the accidents these people cause. Fair enough on the first clip, it looked like a runway or something, but the second was the actions of a complete lunatic.
I feel sorry for anyone who feels they are above the law of sanity and safety, they usually have only one destination, usually in an ambulance.

I love the sound. It's be great fun to have a car that was powered with one or two of those motors.

It would sound like a jet fighter going down the road.
