      You dont stop with a rear brake, you slide and crash with a rear break. All your stopping power is coming from your front brake. As for gear, well at 240mph, you could have inch thick leather, with a carbon plate on either side of it, and sliding across the road would wear through it before you probably even took 60mph off.

    I am not a gear Nazi anymore (y’all are all grown and know how to grow your own skin back or magically don’t hit the ground some how when you crash) however for all of the folks saying that gear will not help at those speeds, ask Wayne Rainey who had an off at 200+ MPH In MOTOGP or Fast Freddy Spencer, Valentino Rossi, Marc Marquez or any other serious rider who has gotten off their bikes at top speed with gear on and walked away from the crash.
    Yeah if you hit a pole or something like that during a get off while yeah your screwed, but at least having gear on while your sliding might give you a better chance of sliding your way away from something if possible. Not likely but hey a chance however slim is worth it to me.
    The reason most of us say anything about gear is that we actually do not want someone to get hurt any worse than necessary in a wreck.
    Having the proper gear on is the difference between getting your knee on deck and scraping a corner having fun in style and taking the skin off your knee and crashing.
    Besides he would go faster with a Humpback jacket or full suit than he would in a T shirt in the first place as the proper gear MAKES YOU MORE AREO-DYNAMIC.
    One last thing, I can’t speak on his 1/4 mile times but I do know this. An otherwise stock Kawasaki H2 with a flash/tune Vandemon exhaust and Rotobox Carbon wheels like mine did 243 MPH in the standing mile on stock wheel base.
    So I’m not going to bet against him being able to hit 240+ MPH on spray with motor work, full exhaust and an extended swing arm.

    Shouldn't this guy be wearing full leathers? Boots? Not to mention those pants flapping and that bottle aren't helping his "Aero" at all.

      CJames yea it would matter,the point is it depends how you gonna crash if you just slide and don’t hit anything well at that point you need gear because you will roll and break bones and have road rash but if you crash on a corner well you are a goner because either you will hit in something or roll down the hill,you can look up (MotoGP marc marquez crashing with 337 kmh/210 mph

    • @cjames2864
      @cjames2864 5 лет назад

      True, but going over 240mph on the streets he’s a goner either way. People die all the time & most have a jacket on, but you’re right definitely a higher chance if he crashes in a straight open road

    Balls the Size of Oranges vs a Brain the Size of a Grapefruit(I'm being Generous with BOTH Of Those), add it all up and... Yes!! I'm FAST!! 180mph in the Quarter Mile and 240mph Top End(maybe More???) + NO Equipment + Low IQ + Minimal(again, being Generous) Understanding of Consequence(let alone Physics, don't make Me Laugh.....) = Roadkill.
