If they can ever find & ID him, we may have to put him in for a Darwin Award.

Any word on how are the real victims: the driver and any passengers in the SUV? I really couldn’t care less about the idiot on the suicycle.

SUV’s fault.

Obviously. Cuz it’s NEVER the motorcyclists fault.

116mph? He must have only been in 3rd gear.

That had to have been a life changing thrill flying through the air like that.

Survived around 7-8 years of high speed scoot craziness. The few times the bike went down or I hit something were low speed mishaps. 116 is not near the top end of fast bikes. I was bike mechanic in the 70s during that time. Customers were 90% crazy kids. I’d get a “engine seems to start missing at around 120...”. This was after I had worked on it and they wanted me to take it out and check it for them. I refused to. I would check it the best I could with diagnostic tools at my disposal but my shop didn’t have a dyno.

My own bikes were a different matter. I’d take it out when traffic was light. Lets say 6am on a weekend and push it up to whatever it would give me. Not too bad with near zero traffic.

I scared myself a few times and realized that as long as I rode those things I would tend to push it. So I sold my last bike around 77 and bought a fishing boat. Much more relaxing.

When my kids got the bug, I told them I’d break their legs and save them the trouble doing it on a bike. Then I told them horror stories that one tends to hear about in the bike industry. Perhaps they should have learned on their own like I did.

That’s why they’re called, “Donorcycles”, although in this case there’s not much left to donate.

That’s what you might call “ludicrous speed” on a causeway.

He should have had the sense to wear a life jacket. Then they could have found his remains before the critters ate him.
