Default Cop car / bike chase....

Not that i'm approving of this behavior or anything, but it is nice to see one get away!

If this was in the UK there would have been at least 5 cars, a rolling road block and a helicopter involved.

I'll give full marks for the cop car for trying...... but on the other hand.... no marks for being stupid... obviously the biker was having fun with him. If the cop car would have backed off then the biker would only be riding fast and not reckless..

Eh, embarrased to say it, but that´s taking place in Sweden... Have no other comments but that I´ve seen/heard of far more reckless motorcycle driving than this. The end part was most shocking (not the part in Amsterdam, WTF?) when the car puts out a big tire cloud when having to brake for the police car. That´s why this is so reckless, innocent people can get hurt, or worse, die!

Isn't that the guy known as "Ghostrider" ???

If it is, he also has a tuned Hayabusa with 499 bhp... An absolute loony (the bloke, not the bike)

The thing with ghostrider is that some of his stuff is "set up". Also he has a very optimistic speedo.

Ghostrider it could be, but I thought that he mainly operated in Germany. Either way, you need to have some big brass ones to even think about riding like that, let alone get away with it as often as he has. That said, still an impressive, if not a little crazy, ride all the same. I agree that to do the same in the UK would see more police cars than you could count with that blasted chopper. Not much fun, and chances are you'd be dead as the drivers over hear are mostly blind to other road users and hate the bike passing in congested traffic. If the police car in the video had been using more care I wounder just how far they would have followed, we'll never know. 10 out of 10 for evasion, 10 out of 10 for stupidity.

clap clap clap clap

Evading Cops on nice flowing open freways like that is a piece of ****. It when ya trying to evade them in the suburbs that it gets difficult on the CBR unless you have bike paths to dissapear down. I had a run once with a few of the local cops on bikes and if there had been a chopper or more police available I would've been stuffed.

Thankfully here in Australia %50 of the the time they stop chasing once you reach 140/180kph depending on viechle and quals of driver/rider.

It is ghostrider, who mainly rides in Sweden.
There are several published DVD´s with his driving, often followed by the police.

What is it with you Northern European folk? Eh? Eh? Is it the Northern Lights? Is it the high level of taxation? Is it the healthy glow of your complexion? Explain!
