We dont know the SPeed of the Bike, But It doesnt really sound like he's going Balls Out. And having a SLip on makes it seem like you Going faster than you really are just based on the sound and RPM's...Hell My stock pipe If i keep it in first or second at a high RPM but keep it at the same speed It sounds like Im flying when in reality I'm not.

Did the cop cause it? No...If you see a cop sitting on the highway and you crash did he cause it? No, Your dumbass did for fixating on your target.

Im sure the cop was cool with the rider...Sucks about the Bike though.

I could have sworn there's a law that gives the right for an officer to write you a ticket for leaning too far, as it is "unsafe" to do.

Then cops need to learn how to ride. it's not unsafe to lean in a corner (properly), but we all know that. or, at least, we should

There's a saying.. if you can see them its already too late. Modern radar is pretty hard to get around.

Did the camera person know the rider? Was the rider not looking ahead enough to see "something"? I don't even think the rider was speeding? Just one stupid event he will laugh about in a year or two.
