Seen a lot of deer in Conn.
Never done over 149
Really? You’re honestly advocating for the physical mutilation of somebody for speeding? There’s something wrong with you.
That looks like kilometers per hour not mph. So, top speed in vid is 119 mph.
What a Maroon.
That guy is a damned nut.Not only putting his life at risk but the lives of every motorist on the road.
Just what the hell was he thinking anyway? Some of Connecticut’s highways have debrise like blown out tires,construction debris,even household furnishings that have fallen out of vehicles. How in the hell would he be able to avoid a collision with that crap?
I have ridden in a Chevell SS/375hp 396 multiple engine upgrades so actually way more than 375hp/Bilstein shocks/VR Rated tyres. Speedometer went to 160 and it was pegged to the backside of the “0” pin so not sure what We were actually doing. On Hwy 290 outside of Austin chasing down someone who was going to Houston. It was daytime. Didn’t feel like We were going that fast but after glancing out the window for a few seconds We were HAULING A$$ !!!

(not the actual car. )
Some years back around here a moron in a heavily modded Mustang rear ended a car and killed a little girl and put her grandmother in a wheelchair for the rest of her life.
He did hard time for his little stunt.
The idiot on the bike didn’t have to worry about jail, he would have been dead if anything happened.
FAFO.
If you can’t break 200, why try
Caught a pigeon in the helmet going 70.
Really rang my bell
Wasn’t me.
Because just about everything on the road now can do the TON. Man's gotta have ambitions, why not the double ton?
bttt
Indeed police report sent to his insurance company now both have his record.
How much for that 10 speed bike.
Don’t know this guy from Bloomfield but I lived in Bloomfield back in High School. A friend and I were on our BSA’s, driving at night. His headlamp went out and he figured he could make the two blocks to his home. He didn’t. He hit a car parked on the street that he couldn’t see and died on the spot. Never saw Graduation.
“Never done over 149”
147 here. On a pussycat 750 Katana, racing a guy on a V-Max up 95N in FL about 1am Sunday night. He should have cooked me, and was, but he was wearing a full cut military jacket (it was cold, for FL anyway) that turned into a vertical balloon around 120. Like dragging a chute lol.
I redlined it, glanced at the spedo, saw 145 and stained my shorts.
Let go of the throttle. I remember 105 looking like slow as the speed melted off.
Hard to explain the sheer rush and crazy intense focus and thrill it brings, while seeming to go slow, like time slows way down. It’s not for everyone lol, but yeah, I’ve always had the need for speed. Most people don’t have the focus and trusted reflexes intense desire and sheer balsy dumbassery to try, fortunately.
But if you know, you know.
