It's fooked. He bought a straight-through tiny little MotoGP pipe that he never fitted, though -- looks stunning. Interested?

My fathers worst accident was into the back of a lorry which had just turned out of a sidestreet he ended up underneath it at 70mph+ braking but not locking it up and he didnt lose his licence,and now he cant even straighten his middle finger form the accident and his head hit the rear/diffaxle of the truck and he was fine
Exactly. Your dad is bang on...
Oh and this is the result from locking the rear when you're not sitting evenly.
Lesson learnt. I'm very concious with my seating position now and I can (and have) lock the front wheel until a stand still. I used to attempt stoppies in damp conditions and it always used to lock. You get used to it.
I apologise for my attitude but when someone tries belittle you over the internet, it's a tad annoying. No hard feelings, eh? 
Same race can i have

He was in 2nd gear...
The R6-R does 85mph in 1st gear.
Feel free to work it out... 
85mph in 1st, no it doesn't
20,000rpm, keep dreaming. MotoGp doesn't rev to that. Rev counters are up to 16,000rpm, but max power on the R6 is around 14,000rpm
And before you ask, i've been riding since i was 6, im now 27...........
So he's braking for ages, and its still at 16,000rpm..
Sound like a complete bell end to me. As for not braking for accidents, dude, seriously, are you writing this purley for cool points or do you use any common sense?????
+1
my r6 used to do just under 65 in first at 16,750 rev limit,(06 plate,)
r1 just about manages 92 with a nikko de-restrict kit,i think he may well have been going fast but anything over 70 the bike(and he) would be alot worse,trust me i've been there!,
oh and as for the video any bike can be flicked practically off the rev counter they rev that fast but holding the bike at the given revs can be a completely different story

But what are the "Police Aware" off?
The fact there's a smashed up bike on the pavement.

Or was he gunning it?

How can it rev to 20k if the rev limiter is set at 16?
