I just wanted everyone to check this out:

My brain almost wants to think this is humorous, but it's just not. It just shows you that you should always have a helmet & gear on, even if you think you're innocently burning out a 500 HP torquemonster. I hope that guy is okay.

Fateful words: "Normally my driver would do this, but he's not here right now..."

That, and it's named KillaCycle. If I ever invent a motorcycle, it's going to be the LongHappyLife CP.

Cool that the bike weighs 675 lbs and takes only 4 minutes to recharge. It can do 8-9 drag runs before it has to recharge.

What a goddamn retard. I'd like to think that wasn't funny but anytime I see darwanisim in action it's funny!

Wow, yet again ANOTHER errogant cocky NERD! Very very smart...and no common sense! Maybe if he hits the gym after physical therapy he'll be strong enough to hold back 400 HORSEPOWER!

 
Dang I bet that hurt

You know he wasn't even wearing a helmet;  I mean, who would have thought he'd crash it, but dang, at least wear some protection just in case!

I bet those folks in the minivan were a bit surprised when they pulled into the parking lot to have a silent bike coming at them at stupid speed.
Seems they could have done the demo somewhere a little more....ummm...controled enviorment, like a RACE TRACK!

It's a drag racer - shouldn't he be in drag?


I'll take this instead, thanks.

Lol! The link to sarcasm was a nice touch as well.

I saw this at least 6 months ago, isn't this old news?  And I thought the Killacycle was a 0.95 second 0-60.

The 500HP mark is a bit oddball also.  Electric motor HP specifications are very different from ICE's.  I assume they're giving a comparison number rather than the motors official HP.

And as I remember the guy ended up alright after the crash.

big time repost

REPOST

Who cares if it's a repost? I wasn't around 6 months ago to read it and was glad to have this dude's dumbassed-ness brought to my attention.

"Retard" is offensive.  The proper term is "Waterhead."

"It's the most dangerous motorsport"~Moments before crash.   I'll be damned if he didn't prove that one right.
