Re: Devon biker jailed
Agreed, an absolute tw*t.
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

Re: Devon biker jailed
The speed is a bit of a misnomer ...... the TV clip was saying travelling over 80mph when the video camera was showing 60-65, and there was nothing showing the speeds talked about, but one has to agree the riding shown was scary to say the least and if ever there was a case where a custodial sentence could be justified then this was it
When is the case of the 170mph rider at Camborne due
SW bikers are gonna get a severe kicking from the cops soon, I fear

Re: Devon biker jailed
I saw a highest speed of 144 on the clock bottom right and it was climbing steadily,then it phased out to a bit further along so could have gone higher, thats only an abbreviated clip of that road.TLS-Moose wrote: there was nothing showing the speeds talked about
He still deserverd everything he got and then some more, we use that road to teignmouth regularly when he was over the double white lines and if i was coming the other way in a 26 tonne truck he would have been a rather messy hood ornament because there's no where to go.............

Re: Devon biker jailed
I heard he had no tax, MOT or insurance and in that clip he was riding like a twat, think he deserves everything he gets.

But the sound is missing from that clip ....... yes, 140+ on the dual carriageway, but then they went on to say 80 on the teignmouth road, which isn't what the camera showed .....
Still, as already said, deserved pretty much what he got

Re: Devon biker jailed
I agree he was being reckless and was a right pillock on the double whites... and yes, he didn't have a licence etc so shouldn't have even been on the road... But as far as the speed is concerned...
Has no-one on here done 140+ on a dual carriageway, or even a single road... ? be honest, I know for a fact there's lots on here that have...
Don't admit anything on here, just give it some thought... Before critisizing...

Re: Devon biker jailed
Not knocking the speed, it's the rest that I disagree with: licence, MOT, insurance, I have to cough up for it so why not him? What happens if he hits you? - you get [Censored] basically, can put in a claim for personal injury to the Motoring Insurers Bureau and wait 3 years for some compo, but you'll never see a penny for damages to your bike/car etc. Been there, done it.Maver-Nick wrote:I agree he was being reckless and was a right pillock on the double whites... and yes, he didn't have a licence etc so shouldn't have even been on the road...
