hey man I just wanted to say you are coming into a lot of close calls even in just the first 3 minutes alone. I highly recommend opening up your following distance in future rides before someone that isnt paying attention slams their brakes on you and we dont get to enjoy videos from you anymore, much love
@GodSon-kg2ju No big deal. I race, so crashing out is part of the gig. I wear full gear, so I skip most of the hospital stuff. Last night, all that got damaged on me was my ring fingernail got tweaked. As foe the bike, fairings & a muffler can & I'm back going good as new. Thanks for the kind words, be safe.
I initially started looking at this Honda CBR1000 as my first bike. After some research I bought Aprilia Tuono V4. Now I know this was definitely the right choice. Aprilia has quick shifter, cruise control, better engine sound and torque, and better riding posture, and cheaper.
I think he was trying to see if you would start weaving traffic and he could follow. The beep at the end I think was meant to be a friendly "thanks!" Regardless, lil bit of a dickhead move by the beamer.
Just for the future, make sure to record in stereo and make sure the microphone isn't causing any problems like here, especially with headphones, this is incredibly unpleasant to watch
But wasn't it green for them? You gotta learn to yield to cagers even if they're in the wrong, especially at intersections. Right and wrong doesn't matter because a bike will always lose in a collision. Me personally I always assume that they don't see me and that the worst can happen at any time so I would've slowed down near that intersection
It looks like you both take the left at the same time, the difference is that you are less likely to be seen and also faster. It's not totally BMW's fault.
