Biker in being a dick shocka!
He was undoubtedly riding like a cock, but one incident does not mean all bikers ride that that. I've seen many DC5s being driven extremely badly, are all DC5 owners dicks?mp3manager said:
No wonder they're called future organ donors.

These guys think they are invincible right until the moment when they are not.
Never go faster than the distance you can see to be clear and can stop in. That means blind corners too!
Heading to Matlock today, hope I will not meet anyone like this
Who are "these guys"? If you mean people that ride or drive dangerously then I fully agree.These guys think they are invincible right until the moment when they are not.

I did something similar before I had my full licence - a car had pulled out and stopped, another car behind it came to a stop, I was approaching them. I would have sworn that I was pulling on the front brake as hard as possible but I was still closing on the cars at the same rate. Somehow managed to wobble around them both, and came to a stop, heart in my mouth.
Looking back, I think I had frozen a bit with panic and was barely braking, if at all. Still, like I said, I would have sworn I was.

Got off lightly, could have been a lot worse. Quite simply, was going too quick without looking far enough ahead.
What are the braking capabilities of a bike like? I know that when they do superbike vs supercar comparisons on the track, the bike gets spanked entering the corners under braking.

EFABtw I have no axe to grind against bikers in general, it is just the morons who ride like him I have a problem with, like the one I nearly decapitated on a country road near Hornsea (east yorkshire) who decided it was perfectly acceptable to go round a blind (from his direction) corner with his knee down and the top half of his body on my side of the road. Luckily for him I had seen him and slowed more than I would have normally for the corner,so when he reappeared in my bit of road I managed to get my car really tight to my left, he stood his bike up and somehow we missed each other.
