LOLO - A man is in custody Sunday after leading law enforcement on a high-speed chase Saturday evening just before 6:00 PM.
Montana Highway Patrol attempted to pull over the man who was driving a motorcycle heading south on highway 93 driving at about 85 miles-per-hour.
When pursued, the man kept driving and began weaving in and out of traffic, hitting speeds as high as 140 miles per hour.

He should move to Fl. I’ve seen motorcyclists go that fast on I95 on more than one occasion
The problem with these guys is when they crash at that speed, most of the organs are not re-usable.
If he had been riding a Suzuki GSX1300R Hyabusa he would have been able to hit 190mph instead.
“He should move to Fl. I’ve seen motorcyclists go that fast on I95 on more than one occasion”
Heck, in CA they do that on one wheel!
lolo?
ballsey. if you wipe out on a motorcycle going 140, there is not going to be much left to bury. I wonder how the cop managed to keep up, and I wonder how much danger the public was exposed to by the fact that he tried.
They scrape a couple guys like that off the mountain every year around here.
yeah but this guy was doing on ice. Thats just an assumption of course but it is Montana.
Has the Ghostrider been visting CA lately?

Damnit! He broke my record. But I was on knobby tires.
I lost a side view mirror to a motorcyclist passing me while white-lining. I though he was going to lose it but managed to stabilize and keep going. Not sure if he hurt his right hand but no blood on my car.

And lived to tell about it.
You have that right...i did 135 one time on the highway. Wil never do it again...unkess the dude i am chasing has just murdered someone in front of me... Chasing someone cor speeding is,ridiculous
Or the brain, even if they don’t crash
the plus side is that cleanup just requires spraying down a pavement stain.
Oh my....
at 140 that’s about all that’s left to do.
I did 160 on 2 lane Hwy 1 north of Santa Cruz.
Of course I was much younger and dumber.
It was fun passing 10 RV’s uphill.
