A few years ago they used to ride like that in mid Wales, on a bank holiday weekend I could expect to meet several ambulances and more often than not a motorcyclist lying flat on the road somewhere on my trip across Wales, but there don't seem to be any of the fast ones left, these days it is very rare to find one that isn't well behaved, and when I do it is normally one that my car can easily leave behind. I guess there was a limited supply of ones that fail the Darwin test.You can see the "average speed" camera cables all cut by the bikers so they can kill themselves on the "cat and fiddle" race track country lane near me !!!
The board of death at the pub lists the deaths..... 90% no other vehicle involved !
Its a brilliant road to drive in a lotus, but a bike ,......
I thought it might be more to do with the huge effort plod put in to catch them? Maybe a combo of plod pulling some & fate catching the rest?A few years ago they used to ride like that in mid Wales, on a bank holiday weekend I could expect to meet several ambulances and more often than not a motorcyclist lying flat on the road somewhere on my trip across Wales, but there don't seem to be any of the fast ones left, these days it is very rare to find one that isn't well behaved, and when I do it is normally one that my car can easily leave behind.

I find that less annoying than the morons on scooters who are nearly as dangerous as the above rider, but at one tenth the speed.
At least if someone without a dashcam is involved in an accident with the above rider, there will be little argument as to who is at fault. There used to be a couple of scooter riders in my area who would ride like noobs, cut cars off, then brake check the car if the driver beeped. A driver trying to prove they were cut off and brake checked by the scooter they just hit would have a hell of a fight on their hands.
Maybe because that's the safe, sane, considerate, and legal thing to do?..
What's the point of sports bike just to follow along other cars?...
It's pretty decent.
