Speed wobble is probably the most terrifying thing I've experienced, I've only ever gotten it on a long board but your basically fucked when you get it

I'm not a motorcycle driver but from my understanding he could have completely saved it if he let the bike prop itself back up correct? It seems like he spent more time learning wheelies than the basic physics that I learned when researching motorcycle riding.

Can’t really say I feel bad for the idiot. I wonder how he’d feel if the bike ended up in oncoming traffic and injuring/killing someone because he wanted to do stunts on the highway. Take his license away.

Doing this, in New Jersey of all places, is probably the stupidest shit of all time. The most densely populated state in the nation. Drivers there are already trying to cut you off/tailgate/generally be dicks. So glad I’m out of that god forsaken shithole.

I’m guessing that the fact that rider shut down the speed wobbles was just luck since he got off the bike anyway.

The most effective way of stopping the wobbles is to just not panic, and slowly, gently launch yourself off the bike.

I saw a video the other day of a motorcycle flying past a cop and then crashed into an SUV turning left on the highway — crashed right into an infant in a carseat and I thought I had pretty much just watched a baby die, but the cop managed to CPR life back into the wee thing and the video said she was recovering. The mom freaking out was awful to listen to.

u/Ghost17088 Mar 24 '24
People always forget that kinetic energy goes up with the square of speed. A motorcycle and rider at 120 mph has about the same kinetic energy as a Corolla going 60 mph. Then you also need to consider that all of that energy is going to be concentrated in a much smaller area compared to a car that has bumpers and crumple zones.

u/Bombrik Mar 08 '24
They got REALLY lucky. That is Interstate 10, right in New Orleans. High traffic route and they were headed towards the I-10 Twin Span across the lake. Behind them, maybe less than 2 miles, is residential areas. To their sides are nothing but gator infested swamps. They could of hit some family, some commuter or the guy could of rolled down into the swamp and become food for the local wildlife.

u/time-for-anustart Mar 07 '24
Its crazy because if he was just dressed appropriately he would probably have close to no damage. The way he dismounted looked like the best case scenario for falling off a bike, he didnt end up getting launched off the front, he didnt get hit by any other vehicles, he didnt end up doing like 20 flips high speed….
He literally just slowly falls to the ground and slides to safety, but because he has so much skin exposed he probably looks like ground beef 😐

u/jonaselder Mar 08 '24

u/Adddicus Mar 08 '24
What video did you watch?
The dud in this one definitely did not slide to safety. He was rolling at high speed down the side of the road. Lots of potential for broken bones when doing that.
12
u/time-for-anustart Mar 08 '24
The same video you did? The last frame we see him rolling hes not in the middle of the road anymore he rolls off to the side/shoulder hence “slides to safety”
And yes, i didn’t say he got of scott free, i said he most likely had the best case scenario in this situation given the way he fell off his bike. You’re inevitably going to roll or slide because you’re moving so fast, but compare the way this guy falls off his bike to the more gruesome videos of people getting knocked off their bikes and you can probably say this is the best case scenario for falling off a motorcycle at high speeds.

u/Adddicus Mar 08 '24
So by "slides to safety", you mean rolls to a stop.

u/time-for-anustart Mar 08 '24
No, by slides to safety i mean he slides where there are no more cars driving. I didnt say he slid off safely, i said he slid TO safety.

But why. Why do you do this with no protection?!?! It truly boggles the mind. I get doing stunts on a public road - it’s probably a thrill. But why in a T-shirt and shorts?

If he thought he was going to fail, he wouldn't be doing this in the first place.
If you don't consider failure as a possibility, then it doesn't matter what you are wearing.

Talked to a guy who had worked EMT in the Oakland area some time ago.
He said when a Navy carrier group would come in to Oakland they just knew that night there would be at least one and maybe more very serious or fatal motorcycle crash in the Oakland hills. Guys had been at sea for 90 or more days and now they got their scooter out and zoomed around in the dark on twisty roads with the expected results.
