I watched two motorcyclists get killed in two separate accidents. One was a guy taking home his first bike from the dealer , no helmet and just a T-Shirt with his father following and he countersteered right into a tree. He had never ridden a bike before. The other one was similar to your experience when a bike speeding in and out of traffic t-boned a truck turning in frontof him. Learn to ride, wear your gear, don't be a street Rossi.
A lot of the motorcycle accidents are because of rider error. If only people would take MSF class, wear all the gear including airbag gear, stop doing the street Rossis shiz and learn to ride defensively there would be a lot less motorcycle related deaths. The sad thing is when a rider gets killed the motorcycle is always to blame when it is usually the rider's fault. Motorcycles are not dangerous, riders are.
The first time I took my bike out I cruised neighborhood streets stops and starts for hours. Full gear. I can’t imagine the first time on a street bike with no gear
Why don't you say that about drunk drivers in cars? People in cars who drive recklessly in and out of traffic?? Why do I never hear people say, "You give car drivers a bad name driving like that"?
@@thehomeless_trucker Could that be because people are hypocrites and see fellow car drivers as having personal responsibility, but hold ALL bikers responsible for ALL bikers.
i used to love riding. Had a Yamaha FZ-07, Torque was awesome. But here in Florida, the amount of defense you have to be on all the time. I just couldn't enjoy my riding all the time. So I'll keep watching you and ill just enjoy your riding and content.... Thanks.
I feel the same way, I got a speed triple rs . I live in Philly and they are just running staled red lights like it’s green out here. It’s just become too dangerous to even ride so I travel to my other spot on the weekends in the country where I can ride the empty back rides doing 80 etc without worrying about cars
I 💯 understand. I lived in S. FL for 8 years, got into accidents with crazy azz drivers that just ran into my cars. The drivers there are bat shiz crazy in FL.. My mom quit driving after some crazy driver plowed into her car from the front while she was sitting at a stop light. My former neighbor got killed on her motorcycle. I told my mom I would never ride a motorcycle in FL. You are smart. Thanks for viewing! You ought to consider moving out of FL, it is even dangerous to drive a car there. lol
Great to see you still alive and riding. I've learned there is a beauty to cruising with a nice torquey bike. Heck that's what we do most of time on a superbike anyways, might as well do it in comfort with more torque and reduce the chance of having a real f'kd up day. Stay safe brother!.
Saw a guy do 3 flips in the air after truck ran left turn light. His bike had hit the truck bed going 50mph. Stayed with him til ambulance and cops came. Truck fled the scene. My dude had two bones sticking out of his body and was laughing. Crazy incident. Sold my Fz09 after that. Ended up back on a Yamaha Bolt couple years later though. Keeps me out of trouble. Thank you @Cyclecruza always keeping it real and opening my mind about safety. Real MVP. Stay safe everyone.
Thank you for sharing that. I hope riders see your comment. It is all fun and games until you crash at speed and get f'kd up. I had some close calls myself and realize what a fool I was. I love superbikes but that type of riding belongs a the track where you'll have more fun in a safer enviroment. Now I've come to appreciate slow fun like supermoto life and just cruising on a nice torquey lil bike like my MT-07. Stay safe brother, glad to see you didn't give up riding.
One time i was riding my bike in the highway going to work in the morning the road was pretty cleared till another car a Bugatti showed up and he wanted to race. Me thinking "this guy what the hell he thinks" so obviously i was faster till my ego decided to just smoke him until i reached around 170mph and the front tires began to wobble, trying to control the handle bars it almost throws me off the bike and at that speed i don't think i will be here sharing this story. It took me 3 seconds to react and prayed "please God, not today" I let go of the handle bars and slowly the bike took control of itself and pulled over to reflect to what just happened. Moral of this testimony is Watch your ego, be safe riding
Great to see you stayed calm, prayed and was able to survive that. You were looking at death staring you in the face. Not many riders can pull out of that death wobble. I 🙏🏼 before every ride. The one time I didn't pray I crashed and broke my collarbone messing around off-road on my supermoto.
Worst one I ever saw was a bike imbedded in the side of a car, a helmet covered by a white sheet and the body about 15 feet away also covered in a sheet. That was 30 years ago and it's still fresh in the mind. Some folks won't listen man. Most will live to act a fool another day, some will end up in a full cast and others will make orphans, widows and sad loved ones. I got too much to live for to ride like I don't .
Dang! That shiz never leaves your mind. I saw my brother's best friend after he got thrown from a dirt bike on the street into a tree, he had no helmet on. He was on the ground with a huge puddle of blood and his head busted wide open. Somehow he survived that accident but was in a coma for a while and had to learn everything all over, he still has problems waking up from sleep and that was back in the 80's. He actually got back on a motorcycle, I was proud of him to get over that fear and ride with all gear. Some rider have a death wish, I just did a new on this: ruclips.net/video/H2G0Cq5xOeA/видео.html
I remember Donnie Brasco. He was a friend of 650Ib's. Ib liked Donnie and showed him often in the older videos. I heard Donnie was fleeing from the police when he had his fatal crash.
Yeah he was apart of the "Cleveland fast boys." They did "smack downs" all of the time. It is only a matter time when a rider meets death riding like that. I thought cops are not permitted to chase bikers now? All the cop had to do was call the chopper and he would have been caught. That cop caused his death, he should have never chased him. Cops chasing speeding bikers needs to stop, it is too dangerous to the biker and the public.
To make the situation worse is you just know the driver of that can gonna have trauma from being involved in an accident that someone died in. Even when they weren't at fault for it. Always crazy and sad when someone does something dumb and pay the price and end up having someone else paying a price too.
Yep! Most people out here driving in their cars are working stiffs commuting just trying to put food on the table for their family, the last thing they need is for a stupid speeding biker to crash into their car.
@@dasx86 Amen, fellas! I have titles on a 1993 Toyota and a 2012 AWD IS350 w 50k miles. Just enough tech, before all the nanny crap came into effect. Really I would prefer older that it. Wish I had an old 4runner or Landcruiser (LX450)!!! Yeah that LS V8 may be the king of bulletproof. Also, honorable mention to our 2008 KIA sportage v6 AWD with 160k miles. Runs like the day I got it and worth its weight in GOLD since 2009. Don't advocate for any other kias but for some reason that Gen of Sportage, while slightly underpowered, is an absolutely reliable and steadfast beast for around town, snow, and road trips. Tiny little SUV but can carry ALOT and goes forever.
Heck yeah! 2005 RX330 AWD and never had a problem with it, still drives like new. My motorcycles are newer than my car. lol However, I don't care much about cars besides them getting me from point A to point B.
Chris Moore(Moore Mafia) had an accident on his Super Hayabusa on the drag track at 195 mph, hit the wall and pavement. He survived the crash. He said if that would have happened on the street he would be dead. That was a fact. The track is the safest place to go. He also said he's been track racing for 25 years and only seen 3 motorcycle deaths. People on the streets can't say that. I can speak of 10 deaths right now. He was preaching the same thing you are. Gotta stay safe out here!
Yeah if someone is texting or distracted it doesn't matter what color you are wearing. However, most drivers don't text while driving and you want to be seen as best as possible for those drivers and hi viz is by far the most visible color, so much so there is a law that road workers wear hi viz gear and many street signs are hi viz. As a car driver, I pay attention to bikers and the bikers that have on hi viz I can see mile away! Riders wearing all black are poorly seen, more vulnerable to getting rear ended, espcially in low light conditions. I had a guy in a pick up truck that was in an oncoming lane pull up to me on my motorcycle and said I was smart for wearing that hi viz gear. Use everything to your advantage. Wearing a helmet will not always save your life but you want to be wearing one to reduce your risk of a head injury if you crash.
The way I rode while young & d u m b plus also drunk & st oo pid sometimes. I should have been ☠️ 💀 long ago. Looking back I was extremely lucky. A few times I had rode home blacked out drunk. Not remembering anything about the night before. Or like how my muffler got torn off. My foot pegs & exhaust pipe were all scraped up & the muffler was torn off. But I was somehow un injured. I think I might have bounced off a curb while leaning into a corner. Thank God I haven't drank since 2000. When it comes to drugs alcohol in large doses is as bad as drugs like opiates & meth. You're literally drinking a solvent like paint stripper. Everclear/ethanol/grain alcohol/moonshine. Is literally poison & a strong solvent. Flammable 🔥 you're drinking a flammable solvent that can run an internal combustion engine 😧
Yeah DUI on a motorcycle is crazy. That is great to hear you changed for the positive. I never drank alcohol because I saw so many people destroy their lives because of it.
Thx Mr Cruza I live in South Africa I finally got my WR450f 2014 converted to super moto and man riding out here is dangerous I have had a head on collision years ago on a small chinese 200cc because a car turned in front of me so Im all about staying alive 😀 Thanks man I love your attitude and sense of humor just know you global bro!!! " Lets go for a ride!!
Worst I ever saw was a rider into the back of an 18 wheeler. He was dragged by the head for ten or so miles...no feet left. Police had to pull the truck driver over as he had no idea. Some people die on motorcycles, some don't. It's a very strange phenomenon.
Cyclecruza 💥 I keep telling people to slow down. Speed when it’s safe to speed. If you have a fast bike it takes discipline. Learn to ride slow before you ride fast. I don’t cut in and out of cars and I don’t lane split ether.
That's why you get an older cheap supersport/superbike as a track-only bike. Sometimes the crash bars actually cause more damage to a bike when crashing at high speeds, they catch on the ground and cause the bike to slip. You want the bike to slide smoothly. Crash bars are more for stunt bikes, low speed drops.
@@CycleCruza^ exactly. That’s why I’m saving up for a track dedicated bike. I’ve been using the 636 w the race rails but the guys at the track told me they don’t recommend race rails bc it can catch and cause bike to flip
I still feel most riders die or are in accidents because people dont look out for us. With that said there are still tons of riders who do smackdowns like that rider or split lanes on highways and it makes an already dangerous pasttime that much worse.
thanks cruza great insite video I am 73 ride a t100 mooded ,mv agusta brutale I class myself as slow hooligan we can have fun like you without more danger,sick.of seeing youtube sportbike common mistakes in crash videos,got a idea for a video no one mentions ,,engine braking vs braking for more traction on rear without hanging on front brakes especially on approach to corners
My XMax 300 tops out at 90mph according to online info. I doubt I'll ever personally verify that. Really no reason to ever be doing more than that except on a track.
Unpredictable on the streets always take it easy so you can plan ahead to any road conditions and hazards, these bikers that speed out there on the highway have no common sense and give a bad reputation for the biker community. Nice one Cyclecruza for ordering your R9. i got my name down for one, and I will decide nearer to the time if i change from my 2024 MT-09 SP.
It can happen in low traffic as well. When you are doing 150+ mph all it takes is one car to make a lane change at the wrong time and it is over. I'd rather just cruise or bust some wheelies and act a fool at slow speeds on my supermoto. lol
Im 58 and ride a cruiser for many years. Im amazed how many fools ride motorcycles today with big ego yet little skill or respect for other road users. No empathy for fools that kill themselves, only empathy for innocent victims by these fools.
"Track is the only thing I haven't done on this channel" Nope. Touring and long distance motorcycle trips (and touring bikes) are something still criticized and spoken of, but not actually done. I'll stick with my previous comments...When you finally DO give in and try touring, you'll be wondering why you wasted all those years putting around the same old town.
Remember some criminals wear black to disappear whether it's tinted windows and black car's too yes literally they do. But there's pro's and cons to being visible. Innocent people in the hood have darker or black vehicles hoping there less visible to being shot at. Yup it's that crazy now sad we're that violent of a society
Nothing like coming around a Blind corner hot only to find an obstacle (Gravel, parked cars, water)... The street is not meant for this type of riding. I am considering the R9, (MT 09 is limited to 130) but do you really need to go that fast on the street? I'm getting too old for my high revving ZX6R, torque is much better for the street! Not to mention the ergonomics of a supersport, the faster you go the more comfortable it is! Which does not lend itself very good on public roads!
I never forget not too long ago I seen what it look like a beginner writer on an Enduro but an older man on my way to work and then when I got out later on that night I seen that same bike getting cleaned up at a stoplight
Yeah you can get killed on any type of bike if you lack riding skills. However, there is a reason why supersports/superbikes have the highest risk rating and dual sports have the lowest risk rating when it comes to insurance. Most motorcycle related deaths are because of speeding.
@@CycleCruza a wise man told me once let me see if I can get this right when you speed you can't see what's coming up on you but when you Cruise you have more now that's not right 😂😂
Basically if you're speeding you can't see what's coming up on you but if you're driving slower speed you can pretty much see everything but my head is always on a swivel I don't care if you're just sitting at a red light I think you're fixing to pull out on me
Regardless of whether I ride my motorcycle or bicycle, I'm 100% confident I won't be killed by a driver. I'll be killed by a cell phone user who just happens to be driving at that time.
There are still some cars on the highway that can suddenly change lanes on you. The faster you fo the less reaction time you have. The late Donny Brasco (nickname) from the Cleveland Fast Boys hit the back of a car while speeding in off hours and got killed. He had been riding for many years doing the "smack downs" highway racing. R.I.P
My mom works in a nursing home and they have this 24 year old guy who had a motorcycle crash. His entire body is paralyzed from chest down. I quit riding after she told me about him 😂
And I bet he probably crashed on a superbike while speeding and had no airbag gear on. People get paralyzed or killed from a car accident but will that deter you from driving a car? Probably not. Don't give into fear. Just make sure to wear all the gear all of the time including airbag gear, ride defensively, don't ride at night, don't ride in high traffic areas and avoid street Rossi riding and you'll be just fine. My cousin lost his best friend who died at 20 years old on a Gixxer 1000, lost control while speeding and went head first into a pole with no helmet on. Fools will be fools.
It’s where you speed that counts. Sunday morning 5-6 am on an open highway I’d consider safe. In traffic, you’re asking for it. You can die at 40mph in traffic
There are always cars on the highway that can a change lanes on you, there may be less cars in the wee hours but all it takes is one car to change lanes in front you while you're doing 180 mph.
Disappointed that he didn't show any footage of the crash..who knows if it ever happened..he could have shown what happens to riders that speed..and made a difference perhaps..vs rambling about..a picture is worth a thousand words..
He went from Ghost 👻 Rider to Toast Rider in a fraction of a second... Same thing happened to a guy Dean, I worked with. 2 weeks after his GF helped him get an R6 for his birthday. He was doing about 145 on a country blacktop road. On the other side of a hill, out of his vision. A 🚜 had pulled onto the road, right under the crest of the hill. By the time he reached the hilltop & seen the tractor 🚜 come into his eyesight. He didn't have enough room to stop 🛑. I felt bad for him. A short time later a young guy at work was riding a wheelie on his dual sport. When a gust of wind of something caused him to drift into a pole at about 45 or 55mph ☠️💀 him also.
Yeah wheelies can cause you to have a real f'kd up day too but deaths because of doing a slow speed wheelie are pretty rare compared to speeding. I personally have never even heard of a rider getting killed because of a slow wheelie until I saw your comment. Really, the streets are just for cruising. If you look at MotoGP riders who ride on the streets they usually just have a cruiser or standard bike of some sort.
@CycleCruza He was doing about 45 or 55 mph on 1 wheel and drifted into a big metal traffic 🚦 light pole. I'm pretty sure he was wearing a helmet ⛑️. The same helmet he rode to work with. His death was either blunt force trauma from the pole into his chest. Or head or both. Or he hit the pole and was thrown off into 45/55mph traffic 🚦....All I remember is everyone at work said. It was a wheelie & drifted into a pole on the main 55 mph road thru town connecting east Peoria to Pekin IL..... Believe it or not, another guy Dave H at same job Hanna Steel in Pekin IL. Lost a wheelie at 55 on the hwy bridge & didn't die. Luckily but permanent damage to one or more legs. His leg got mangled on a late 90s early 2000s ninja. The foot peg went clean thru his foot 🦶 🤕🤕🤕
You know they're just gonna say "He died doing what he loved, and what made him happy. No regrets" or some such foolishness. I could call out several channels that specialize in roll racing in public traffic. How they've managed to keep a DL and not have their $300,000 worth of superbikes impounded... or managed to stay alive, is beyond me. But I have seen these guys lie to the police who show up at a gas station before/after the group has just been out racing. By the way, CC.... an electronic triggered airbag jacket/suit is much more safe than the vest. The algorithm and motion devices in these jackets/pants are much more intelligent in determining when to inflate, rather than relying on a tether. You can go down HARD on the pavement and get smashed up by the bike while still tethered.
I'm surprised YT has shut those street Rossi channels down yet but they will eventually crack down. I prefer airbag gear with a basic tether, I would worry about an electrical malfunction of some sort and having to keep the battery charged. A tether works every time as long as it is not damaged. If you low side on a bike you will still depart from the bike that will cause the tether to be pulled and the airbag vest/jacket will inflate. The low sides are least dangerous type of crash that you worry about, you will usually just slide.
@@CycleCruza I see the utility of a tether, but they aren't as overall capable. The electronic units have learned data from racing and from street use, as they have a constant-improvement feedback system (Dainese is one I'm referring to) from customers and racing teams. Just like the accelerometer in your cell phone, it knows 6-axis orientation and acceleration in any direction which will trigger the CO2. The battery and electronics are a concern, but of those two, the battery staying topped up would be the only concern. We're not talking about spinning hard drives or delicate CPU's. It's code in a solid state memory. Who can argue with the durability of a GoPro, for instance? Anyway, I'd rather be inflated before busting my body against something, rather than having to wait to get separated from the bike. The hassle of connecting/disconnecting every time gets old, as well as feeling limited in movement on the bike while tethered (if you want a more safe result). Even Helite has developed more appealing and streamlined gear with electronic trigger.
Eh could be but he still died from speeding. I thought cops stopped chasing motorcycles? All they have to do is call the chopper if they really want to get you.
There are two kinds of rider, experienced ones that may have had a couple of offs or lay-downs over their career so they've learnt respect...and those idiots who believe they're invincible and haven't been riding long and think they're in a video game with no consequences. These are the idiots that watch other fools on RUclips doing exactly what you've been talking about and want to popular by seeming that they know how to ride at speed and have the balls to do it...Russian Roulette anyone?
I don't have to worry aboot crashing cuz I Cruz. I don't max speed 100 to anywhere anymeow. Plus I'm invincible. After my last crash and survived. My skin is tougher meow.
I have I've done stupid s*** sitting on the damn gas tank going 120 mph go on 115 weather down passenger bend down twice not out because of people pulling out in front of me and me not paying attention usually because of b**** got my mind f***** up
Wait you actually have a car? Did the news say wether they were wearing an airbag vest or not? Racer Hooligans dont usually wear one. I feel sorry for the car driver having to live with that guilt even tho its always the bikers fault. But dont be fixating on death just be positive about it and have fun. Track riding is expensive tho.
It did not say whether he had on an airbag vest but he did have on a helmet. They would never tell you he had on airbag vest anyways because most riders don't , sadly. Really, the streets are just for cruising. If you only ride street you are better off trading fast speed for slow speed fun, supermoto life!
I wasn't wondering, I recently bought drz400sm and a few people pulled out infront of me,I'm on a tall bike,led lights ,kinda crazy I feel like I'm invisible or something, anybody do the same to you on your motos,
I had a car pull out once on me with my supermoto but I did not have my headlight on and it was at dusk. I always ride expecting every car to pull out and I'm ready, that is what saved me. Sometimes I even honk my horn before I pass a car making a turn, they have hinked back at me on occasion. lol ruclips.net/video/N-W1xlQlyuY/видео.html
C Cruzza, it's always hard to see a fellow rider get killed doing what we love... Ride! The choices every rider makes, when throwing a leg over that saddle, is up to them. When you add fast bikes with testosterone, Sh!t can happen in a heartbeat. We, as riders, need to respect what our bikes can do and get the skills we need to stay alive. Think with the right head, guys.

I watched two motorcyclists get killed in two separate accidents. One was a guy taking home his first bike from the dealer , no helmet and just a T-Shirt with his father following and he countersteered right into a tree. He had never ridden a bike before. The other one was similar to your experience when a bike speeding in and out of traffic t-boned a truck turning in frontof him. Learn to ride, wear your gear, don't be a street Rossi.
A lot of the motorcycle accidents are because of rider error. If only people would take MSF class, wear all the gear including airbag gear, stop doing the street Rossis shiz and learn to ride defensively there would be a lot less motorcycle related deaths. The sad thing is when a rider gets killed the motorcycle is always to blame when it is usually the rider's fault. Motorcycles are not dangerous, riders are.
The first time I took my bike out I cruised neighborhood streets stops and starts for hours. Full gear. I can’t imagine the first time on a street bike with no gear
It's motorcycle riders like that who give other riders bad reputations
Yep it's not the motorcycle it is the biker that is dangerous. I hate to see motorcycles get a bad reputation because of stupid bikers.
Why don't you say that about drunk drivers in cars? People in cars who drive recklessly in and out of traffic?? Why do I never hear people say, "You give car drivers a bad name driving like that"?
@@thehomeless_trucker Could that be because people are hypocrites and see fellow car drivers as having personal responsibility, but hold ALL bikers responsible for ALL bikers.
"Live fast, dle young." Sounds cool until it's you. 😢
i used to love riding. Had a Yamaha FZ-07, Torque was awesome. But here in Florida, the amount of defense you have to be on all the time. I just couldn't enjoy my riding all the time. So I'll keep watching you and ill just enjoy your riding and content.... Thanks.
I feel the same way, I got a speed triple rs . I live in Philly and they are just running staled red lights like it’s green out here. It’s just become too dangerous to even ride so I travel to my other spot on the weekends in the country where I can ride the empty back rides doing 80 etc without worrying about cars
I 💯 understand. I lived in S. FL for 8 years, got into accidents with crazy azz drivers that just ran into my cars. The drivers there are bat shiz crazy in FL.. My mom quit driving after some crazy driver plowed into her car from the front while she was sitting at a stop light. My former neighbor got killed on her motorcycle. I told my mom I would never ride a motorcycle in FL. You are smart. Thanks for viewing! You ought to consider moving out of FL, it is even dangerous to drive a car there. lol
I’m 48 and I been riding sports bikes for about 16years, I currently own a Hayabusa and I’m at the point now it’s time for me to get a cruiser.
Great to see you still alive and riding. I've learned there is a beauty to cruising with a nice torquey bike. Heck that's what we do most of time on a superbike anyways, might as well do it in comfort with more torque and reduce the chance of having a real f'kd up day. Stay safe brother!.
Saw a guy do 3 flips in the air after truck ran left turn light. His bike had hit the truck bed going 50mph. Stayed with him til ambulance and cops came. Truck fled the scene. My dude had two bones sticking out of his body and was laughing. Crazy incident. Sold my Fz09 after that. Ended up back on a Yamaha Bolt couple years later though. Keeps me out of trouble. Thank you @Cyclecruza always keeping it real and opening my mind about safety. Real MVP. Stay safe everyone.
i got a 2024 rebel 1100.. so much fun!
Thank you for sharing that. I hope riders see your comment. It is all fun and games until you crash at speed and get f'kd up. I had some close calls myself and realize what a fool I was. I love superbikes but that type of riding belongs a the track where you'll have more fun in a safer enviroment. Now I've come to appreciate slow fun like supermoto life and just cruising on a nice torquey lil bike like my MT-07. Stay safe brother, glad to see you didn't give up riding.
One time i was riding my bike in the highway going to work in the morning the road was pretty cleared till another car a Bugatti showed up and he wanted to race.
Me thinking "this guy what the hell he thinks" so obviously i was faster till my ego decided to just smoke him until i reached around 170mph and the front tires began to wobble, trying to control the handle bars
it almost throws me off the bike and at that speed i don't think i will be here sharing this story. It took me 3 seconds to react and prayed
"please God, not today"
I let go of the handle bars and slowly the bike took control of itself and pulled over to reflect to what just happened.
Moral of this testimony is
Watch your ego, be safe riding
Great to see you stayed calm, prayed and was able to survive that. You were looking at death staring you in the face. Not many riders can pull out of that death wobble.
I 🙏🏼 before every ride. The one time I didn't pray I crashed and broke my collarbone messing around off-road on my supermoto.
Worst one I ever saw was a bike imbedded in the side of a car, a helmet covered by a white sheet and the body about 15 feet away also covered in a sheet. That was 30 years ago and it's still fresh in the mind. Some folks won't listen man. Most will live to act a fool another day, some will end up in a full cast and others will make orphans, widows and sad loved ones. I got too much to live for to ride like I don't .
Dang! That shiz never leaves your mind. I saw my brother's best friend after he got thrown from a dirt bike on the street into a tree, he had no helmet on. He was on the ground with a huge puddle of blood and his head busted wide open. Somehow he survived that accident but was in a coma for a while and had to learn everything all over, he still has problems waking up from sleep and that was back in the 80's. He actually got back on a motorcycle, I was proud of him to get over that fear and ride with all gear.
Some rider have a death wish, I just did a new on this:
ruclips.net/video/H2G0Cq5xOeA/видео.html
@CycleCruza Man....to survive and get back on. That's bravery.
I remember Donnie Brasco. He was a friend of 650Ib's. Ib liked Donnie and showed him often in the older videos. I heard Donnie was fleeing from the police when he had his fatal crash.
650 be speeding too
Yeah he was apart of the "Cleveland fast boys." They did "smack downs" all of the time. It is only a matter time when a rider meets death riding like that.
I thought cops are not permitted to chase bikers now? All the cop had to do was call the chopper and he would have been caught. That cop caused his death, he should have never chased him. Cops chasing speeding bikers needs to stop, it is too dangerous to the biker and the public.
you are correct about not being able to un see a fatal crash, hot blacktop is unforgiving when you ride beyond your skills.
To make the situation worse is you just know the driver of that can gonna have trauma from being involved in an accident that someone died in. Even when they weren't at fault for it. Always crazy and sad when someone does something dumb and pay the price and end up having someone else paying a price too.
Yep! Most people out here driving in their cars are working stiffs commuting just trying to put food on the table for their family, the last thing they need is for a stupid speeding biker to crash into their car.
Yikes!!! Hey big ups for keeping the RX300 man!!! No car payment GANG!!!!
Amen
💯 Agree! I drive 98 Lexus LS 400
@@peterinfante6187 Bulletproof engine in that LS
@@dasx86 Amen, fellas! I have titles on a 1993 Toyota and a 2012 AWD IS350 w 50k miles. Just enough tech, before all the nanny crap came into effect. Really I would prefer older that it. Wish I had an old 4runner or Landcruiser (LX450)!!! Yeah that LS V8 may be the king of bulletproof.
Also, honorable mention to our 2008 KIA sportage v6 AWD with 160k miles. Runs like the day I got it and worth its weight in GOLD since 2009. Don't advocate for any other kias but for some reason that Gen of Sportage, while slightly underpowered, is an absolutely reliable and steadfast beast for around town, snow, and road trips. Tiny little SUV but can carry ALOT and goes forever.
Heck yeah! 2005 RX330 AWD and never had a problem with it, still drives like new. My motorcycles are newer than my car. lol However, I don't care much about cars besides them getting me from point A to point B.

No F'd Up Days
Stay safe!
Chris Moore(Moore Mafia) had an accident on his Super Hayabusa on the drag track at 195 mph, hit the wall and pavement. He survived the crash. He said if that would have happened on the street he would be dead. That was a fact. The track is the safest place to go. He also said he's been track racing for 25 years and only seen 3 motorcycle deaths. People on the streets can't say that. I can speak of 10 deaths right now. He was preaching the same thing you are. Gotta stay safe out here!
Totally agree with you. I think a lot of younger guys just don't care about consequences of their reckless riding.
i wore hi-viz in the day, still almost got hit by an errant driver. Need to be alert and anticipate the next move of these sort of drivers.
Yeah if someone is texting or distracted it doesn't matter what color you are wearing. However, most drivers don't text while driving and you want to be seen as best as possible for those drivers and hi viz is by far the most visible color, so much so there is a law that road workers wear hi viz gear and many street signs are hi viz. As a car driver, I pay attention to bikers and the bikers that have on hi viz I can see mile away! Riders wearing all black are poorly seen, more vulnerable to getting rear ended, espcially in low light conditions.
I had a guy in a pick up truck that was in an oncoming lane pull up to me on my motorcycle and said I was smart for wearing that hi viz gear. Use everything to your advantage. Wearing a helmet will not always save your life but you want to be wearing one to reduce your risk of a head injury if you crash.

The way I rode while young & d u m b plus also drunk & st oo pid sometimes. I should have been ☠️ 💀 long ago. Looking back I was extremely lucky. A few times I had rode home blacked out drunk. Not remembering anything about the night before. Or like how my muffler got torn off. My foot pegs & exhaust pipe were all scraped up & the muffler was torn off. But I was somehow un injured. I think I might have bounced off a curb while leaning into a corner.
Thank God I haven't drank since 2000. When it comes to drugs alcohol in large doses is as bad as drugs like opiates & meth. You're literally drinking a solvent like paint stripper. Everclear/ethanol/grain alcohol/moonshine. Is literally poison & a strong solvent. Flammable 🔥 you're drinking a flammable solvent that can run an internal combustion engine 😧
Yeah DUI on a motorcycle is crazy. That is great to hear you changed for the positive. I never drank alcohol because I saw so many people destroy their lives because of it.
Thank you. Ill slow down a bit more. Splitting lanes here in north California can be tricky.
Thx Mr Cruza I live in South Africa I finally got my WR450f 2014 converted to super moto and man riding out here is dangerous I have had a head on collision years ago on a small chinese 200cc because a car turned in front of me so Im all about staying alive 😀 Thanks man I love your attitude and sense of humor just know you global bro!!!
" Lets go for a ride!!
Worst I ever saw was a rider into the back of an 18 wheeler. He was dragged by the head for ten or so miles...no feet left. Police had to pull the truck driver over as he had no idea.
Some people die on motorcycles, some don't. It's a very strange phenomenon.
Cyclecruza 💥 I keep telling people to slow down. Speed when it’s safe to speed. If you have a fast bike it takes discipline. Learn to ride slow before you ride fast. I don’t cut in and out of cars and I don’t lane split ether.
For real, stay safe. PapaCruza said to 😁 Have a good one, CC!!
your steering wheel got me like -
"Fo' fo's I'm tippin', wood grain I'm grippin'
Catch me lane switchin' with the paint drippin'"😂
lol I love my old Lexus, the older cars are better imo.
@@CycleCruza fersure, i got my mom a old 2000 LS400 from orignal owner, she loves it
Let's go for a Raaaaaadde!
If I was gonna take a bike to a track. I'd get some crash bars on it. So if you take a slide, the bike hopefully won't be a total loss.
Chances are you will have a slide sometime on a track pushing yourself hard. Good advice.
That's why you get an older cheap supersport/superbike as a track-only bike. Sometimes the crash bars actually cause more damage to a bike when crashing at high speeds, they catch on the ground and cause the bike to slip. You want the bike to slide smoothly. Crash bars are more for stunt bikes, low speed drops.
@@CycleCruza^ exactly. That’s why I’m saving up for a track dedicated bike. I’ve been using the 636 w the race rails but the guys at the track told me they don’t recommend race rails bc it can catch and cause bike to flip
Sad.... most of the time, new inexperienced riders... God have mercy on him..
Same ones telling you that you're not a real man if you're not on a litrebike
I still feel most riders die or are in accidents because people dont look out for us. With that said there are still tons of riders who do smackdowns like that rider or split lanes on highways and it makes an already dangerous pasttime that much worse.
thanks cruza great insite video I am 73 ride a t100 mooded ,mv agusta brutale I class myself as slow hooligan we can have fun like you without more danger,sick.of seeing youtube sportbike common mistakes in crash videos,got a idea for a video no one mentions ,,engine braking vs braking for more traction on rear without hanging on front brakes especially on approach to corners
My XMax 300 tops out at 90mph according to online info. I doubt I'll ever personally verify that. Really no reason to ever be doing more than that except on a track.
Unpredictable on the streets always take it easy so you can plan ahead to any road conditions and hazards, these bikers that speed out there on the highway have no common sense and give a bad reputation for the biker community.
Nice one Cyclecruza for ordering your R9. i got my name down for one, and I will decide nearer to the time if i change from my 2024 MT-09 SP.
Preach on brother you can speed on them streets but just not 150 in heavy traffic
It can happen in low traffic as well. When you are doing 150+ mph all it takes is one car to make a lane change at the wrong time and it is over. I'd rather just cruise or bust some wheelies and act a fool at slow speeds on my supermoto. lol
first time seeing you in a car its been 4years
Speeding is fine. Top speed run is fine. But recognize there is a time and place for everything. A busy road is not the place.
Love ya, Cruza. Peace brother.
Im 58 and ride a cruiser for many years. Im amazed how many fools ride motorcycles today with big ego yet little skill or respect for other road users. No empathy for fools that kill themselves, only empathy for innocent victims by these fools.
"Track is the only thing I haven't done on this channel" Nope. Touring and long distance motorcycle trips (and touring bikes) are something still criticized and spoken of, but not actually done.
I'll stick with my previous comments...When you finally DO give in and try touring, you'll be wondering why you wasted all those years putting around the same old town.
That's why you should have dash camera so you can show the footage
CycleCruza PSA keepin it real.
Dress for the slide, not the ride. Grab your gear and let's go for a ride!
You can speed, play the hooligan, and have plenty of fun on public streets. It's a matter of choosing the appropriate time and place...
Remember some criminals wear black to disappear whether it's tinted windows and black car's too yes literally they do. But there's pro's and cons to being visible. Innocent people in the hood have darker or black vehicles hoping there less visible to being shot at. Yup it's that crazy now sad we're that violent of a society
Nothing like coming around a Blind corner hot only to find an obstacle (Gravel, parked cars, water)... The street is not meant for this type of riding. I am considering the R9, (MT 09 is limited to 130) but do you really need to go that fast on the street? I'm getting too old for my high revving ZX6R, torque is much better for the street! Not to mention the ergonomics of a supersport, the faster you go the more comfortable it is! Which does not lend itself very good on public roads!
I never forget not too long ago I seen what it look like a beginner writer on an Enduro but an older man on my way to work and then when I got out later on that night I seen that same bike getting cleaned up at a stoplight
Yeah you can get killed on any type of bike if you lack riding skills. However, there is a reason why supersports/superbikes have the highest risk rating and dual sports have the lowest risk rating when it comes to insurance. Most motorcycle related deaths are because of speeding.
@@CycleCruza a wise man told me once let me see if I can get this right when you speed you can't see what's coming up on you but when you Cruise you have more now that's not right 😂😂
Basically if you're speeding you can't see what's coming up on you but if you're driving slower speed you can pretty much see everything but my head is always on a swivel I don't care if you're just sitting at a red light I think you're fixing to pull out on me
Regardless of whether I ride my motorcycle or bicycle, I'm 100% confident I won't be killed by a driver. I'll be killed by a cell phone user who just happens to be driving at that time.
Funny I was thinking autovlog foreshadowing of driving to see a bike. Turns out buying that R9
There are still some cars on the highway that can suddenly change lanes on you. The faster you fo the less reaction time you have. The late Donny Brasco (nickname) from the Cleveland Fast Boys hit the back of a car while speeding in off hours and got killed. He had been riding for many years doing the "smack downs" highway racing. R.I.P
If you want to ride fast, just take it to the track. It’s a safer environment and you’ll get some instruction on how to ride fast properly.
My mom works in a nursing home and they have this 24 year old guy who had a motorcycle crash. His entire body is paralyzed from chest down. I quit riding after she told me about him 😂
And I bet he probably crashed on a superbike while speeding and had no airbag gear on. People get paralyzed or killed from a car accident but will that deter you from driving a car? Probably not. Don't give into fear. Just make sure to wear all the gear all of the time including airbag gear, ride defensively, don't ride at night, don't ride in high traffic areas and avoid street Rossi riding and you'll be just fine. My cousin lost his best friend who died at 20 years old on a Gixxer 1000, lost control while speeding and went head first into a pole with no helmet on. Fools will be fools.
It’s where you speed that counts. Sunday morning 5-6 am on an open highway I’d consider safe. In traffic, you’re asking for it. You can die at 40mph in traffic
There are always cars on the highway that can a change lanes on you, there may be less cars in the wee hours but all it takes is one car to change lanes in front you while you're doing 180 mph.
I went from a zx10 down to a z650 and I ain’t missing anything.
Disappointed that he didn't show any footage of the crash..who knows if it ever happened..he could have shown what happens to riders that speed..and made a difference perhaps..vs rambling about..a picture is worth a thousand words..
Hitting a wall with 100 miles per hour...
I dont think crash test dummies stay intact.
what does 'bust down' mean?
Im not into riding fast, i like to get to the speed limit fast and thats good enough for me.
Don't be crazy and go past the speed limit :D
I rather ride than walk or worse yet...
Just enjoy cruising on the street with a nice torquey bike.
150 mph = death wish. And that's in a car.
I prefer cruiser instead of a sport bike
He went from Ghost 👻 Rider to Toast Rider in a fraction of a second...
Same thing happened to a guy Dean, I worked with. 2 weeks after his GF helped him get an R6 for his birthday. He was doing about 145 on a country blacktop road. On the other side of a hill, out of his vision. A 🚜 had pulled onto the road, right under the crest of the hill. By the time he reached the hilltop & seen the tractor 🚜 come into his eyesight. He didn't have enough room to stop 🛑. I felt bad for him. A short time later a young guy at work was riding a wheelie on his dual sport. When a gust of wind of something caused him to drift into a pole at about 45 or 55mph ☠️💀 him also.
Yeah wheelies can cause you to have a real f'kd up day too but deaths because of doing a slow speed wheelie are pretty rare compared to speeding. I personally have never even heard of a rider getting killed because of a slow wheelie until I saw your comment. Really, the streets are just for cruising. If you look at MotoGP riders who ride on the streets they usually just have a cruiser or standard bike of some sort.
@CycleCruza He was doing about 45 or 55 mph on 1 wheel and drifted into a big metal traffic 🚦 light pole. I'm pretty sure he was wearing a helmet ⛑️. The same helmet he rode to work with. His death was either blunt force trauma from the pole into his chest. Or head or both. Or he hit the pole and was thrown off into 45/55mph traffic 🚦....All I remember is everyone at work said. It was a wheelie & drifted into a pole on the main 55 mph road thru town connecting east Peoria to Pekin IL..... Believe it or not, another guy Dave H at same job Hanna Steel in Pekin IL. Lost a wheelie at 55 on the hwy bridge & didn't die. Luckily but permanent damage to one or more legs. His leg got mangled on a late 90s early 2000s ninja. The foot peg went clean thru his foot 🦶 🤕🤕🤕
I'll stick to my Yamaha 125cc 13 BHP fast enough city cruising .
You know they're just gonna say "He died doing what he loved, and what made him happy. No regrets" or some such foolishness.
I could call out several channels that specialize in roll racing in public traffic. How they've managed to keep a DL and not have their $300,000 worth of superbikes impounded... or managed to stay alive, is beyond me.
But I have seen these guys lie to the police who show up at a gas station before/after the group has just been out racing.
By the way, CC.... an electronic triggered airbag jacket/suit is much more safe than the vest. The algorithm and motion devices in these jackets/pants are much more intelligent in determining when to inflate, rather than relying on a tether. You can go down HARD on the pavement and get smashed up by the bike while still tethered.
I'm surprised YT has shut those street Rossi channels down yet but they will eventually crack down.
I prefer airbag gear with a basic tether, I would worry about an electrical malfunction of some sort and having to keep the battery charged. A tether works every time as long as it is not damaged. If you low side on a bike you will still depart from the bike that will cause the tether to be pulled and the airbag vest/jacket will inflate. The low sides are least dangerous type of crash that you worry about, you will usually just slide.
@@CycleCruza I see the utility of a tether, but they aren't as overall capable. The electronic units have learned data from racing and from street use, as they have a constant-improvement feedback system (Dainese is one I'm referring to) from customers and racing teams. Just like the accelerometer in your cell phone, it knows 6-axis orientation and acceleration in any direction which will trigger the CO2. The battery and electronics are a concern, but of those two, the battery staying topped up would be the only concern. We're not talking about spinning hard drives or delicate CPU's. It's code in a solid state memory. Who can argue with the durability of a GoPro, for instance?
Anyway, I'd rather be inflated before busting my body against something, rather than having to wait to get separated from the bike. The hassle of connecting/disconnecting every time gets old, as well as feeling limited in movement on the bike while tethered (if you want a more safe result).
Even Helite has developed more appealing and streamlined gear with electronic trigger.
carcruza
Eh just show the perspective of a car driver.
I was told Donnie brasko was running from the cops
Eh could be but he still died from speeding. I thought cops stopped chasing motorcycles? All they have to do is call the chopper if they really want to get you.
@CycleCruza He was definitely speeding, I think on his bmw ,great points ,appreciate the video
There are two kinds of rider, experienced ones that may have had a couple of offs or lay-downs over their career so they've learnt respect...and those idiots who believe they're invincible and haven't been riding long and think they're in a video game with no consequences. These are the idiots that watch other fools on RUclips doing exactly what you've been talking about and want to popular by seeming that they know how to ride at speed and have the balls to do it...Russian Roulette anyone?
I don't have to worry aboot crashing cuz I Cruz. I don't max speed 100 to anywhere anymeow. Plus I'm invincible. After my last crash and survived. My skin is tougher meow.
BLAHOW!!!
I’m glad I traded my cbr600 for a fz07 lol…..
Where's the video or pictures? Your passenger could of gotten the shot. Otherwise it all fish stories. Come on, Cycle Cruza!
amma be getting that new mt07 yamt
Nice!

If you hit something in a car at 150+ im preatty sure you will eat the next meal with jesus.

Ride the mt07 on track
I have I've done stupid s*** sitting on the damn gas tank going 120 mph go on 115 weather down passenger bend down twice not out because of people pulling out in front of me and me not paying attention usually because of b**** got my mind f***** up
We've all done stupid shiz, I know I have.
Wait you actually have a car? Did the news say wether they were wearing an airbag vest or not? Racer Hooligans dont usually wear one.
I feel sorry for the car driver having to live with that guilt even tho its always the bikers fault.
But dont be fixating on death just be positive about it and have fun. Track riding is expensive tho.
It did not say whether he had on an airbag vest but he did have on a helmet. They would never tell you he had on airbag vest anyways because most riders don't , sadly.
Really, the streets are just for cruising. If you only ride street you are better off trading fast speed for slow speed fun, supermoto life!
I wasn't wondering, I recently bought drz400sm and a few people pulled out infront of me,I'm on a tall bike,led lights ,kinda crazy I feel like I'm invisible or something, anybody do the same to you on your motos,
I had a car pull out once on me with my supermoto but I did not have my headlight on and it was at dusk. I always ride expecting every car to pull out and I'm ready, that is what saved me. Sometimes I even honk my horn before I pass a car making a turn, they have hinked back at me on occasion. lol

C Cruzza, it's always hard to see a fellow rider get killed doing what we love... Ride! The choices every rider makes, when throwing a leg over that saddle, is up to them. When you add fast bikes with testosterone, Sh!t can happen in a heartbeat. We, as riders, need to respect what our bikes can do and get the skills we need to stay alive. Think with the right head, guys.
