I've been on the back of a GSXR at 150 at night, all I could think about is that if anything went wrong I'd be a red smear on the road. Then, even in a car at 196mph you'd be liquidized.

The only reason he had to slow down and not break the 200mph mark was because I could no longer hold on, and was slipping off :shock: :shock:

I almost slipped off when my "mate" had the front wheel in the air at 100 Image (yes he was succesfully attempting to scare the crap out of me)
