Fastest Ride Video??

I have never seen any video of a ride that went this fast! If you got past by these guys it would seem like a split second!
What I want to know is how they held on without a fairing!

Top speed runs in the presence of people and other vehicles aren't amusing to me.

I'd be more impressed if he did that in LA.

What amazed me was they were able to get away with it. It's in Sweden so their speed laws are just as bad as the US, maybe worse. I remember reading that their speeds are strictly enforced and most drivers do 65. I keep wondering when they would bring in the Police Helicopter.

Police helicopter is not going to help with those speeds.

The thought that comes to my mind is sociopath.
I sure hope he doesn't kill somebody's kid, Mom or Dad, or a whole family.

I was mildly amused that the chase bike had no problem running briskly right up to the 299kph limiter. They need to reflash that ECU. It looked like it had a lot left in it.

Some guys running a pretty good clip in this one too. At night on public roads.

That's when you have to get off the bike and use the RPG.

Who's the tire sponsor? the guy has lasted a lot longer than I thought.......if you think about it the amazing part is all the wheelies at 150+........just hanging on at that speed is incredible..........long term the odds are not good...........but it looks like fun for now............I too hope he doesn't wipe out a van full of kids before its all over.
