16 year old on a Hayabusa killed

[Slowstang305]

Just ran into this in Orlando news. Pretty crazy to see the damage the Slowrolla sustained from this accident. Not sure I would have given a 16 year old a Hayabusa either.

Sad for a young man to pass, and hope the saying only the good dye young is true in this case. Terrible time of year to lose a child.

Sad to see, the lad was moving judging by the damage on the car.

A hyper/super bike should never be in the hands of an inexperienced rider regardless.

The guy in the video isn't a 16 year old either.

I still don't think a bike like this should be in the hands of an inexperienced rider and nor does Suzuki. This guy seems very mature in the video.

Grandpa on his trike is just as, if not more, dangerous. On December 8th, my friend was headed home from picking up his work van. Light turns green, my friend starts crossing the intersection and whaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmm! His van was spun around a full 180 degrees. He gets out and the rider of this trike is unconscious with half his body inside the van. Everyone starts calling 911 and the older gentleman wakes up and starts moaning and complaining and my friend tries to calm him down until paramedics arrive. My friend says that the people that witnessed the accident decided to stay to give their version of the story. They all said that the light turn red and they stopped, but the trike flew by them right to the center of the intersection and hit my friend’s van. Now, imagine if my friend would’ve started rolling a split second later?!!! He could’ve been killed if the trike would’ve hit right on the driver’s door. By the way, this was in Orlando as well.

I agree! It will be a very sad holiday season for these parents/family.

I agree, it's a heck of a thing to deal with.

My friend tried to get some info out the paramedics, but all they said was rider had 50/50 chances of making out of that one. He said last update he got was rider was in critical condition. I mean, that’s a hell of a hit for a person of any age, but being an elder makes it harder to make it out of that one IMHO.

I've known a couple teenagers that can really ride, and my friend's near 8 year old son is a natural, amazing riding and driving skills.
There are alot of teens and young people that DO have the skill for big power bikes.
However, most, if not all of them, do Not have the self control or experience to be riding big bikes, guys especially.
Too much testosterone n crazy youth attitude. They don't comprehend that you accelerate so much quicker than you can stop, let alone react.
At 18, I asked my Dad to cosign for a new 600 Ninja for me. He laughed, and said, I'm not signing your death warrant.
It took me a few years to understand where he was coming from. But, in hindsight, I know he was right.

Sad day, regardless of circumstance. To lose a child is every parent's worst fear.

It's the only way to master anything, no one can skip to a black belt except at Sears.
