sounds like you never rode a motorcycle, you do have to slow down for corners somewhat...as for the first video, looks like the rider panic when he saw the cop and grabbed too much front brake.

 

Actually, I had owned 2 bikes in my lifetime. I was referring to the straight, in which he didn't seem to be gunning all the way. Even with cars, one would have to slow down for corners too; not just bikes.

P.S. Even the video recorder was saying: "The bike is not so fast..."

 

The quickest way to lose the police is to take tight corners, assuming you can out corner the cops. Cruisers and even most interceptors are poor handling, heavy, and slow. Police are at least trained how to drive unlike most trying to flee, but nothing can keep up with a bike if you can keep taking advantage of the 5-60 acceleration. String together four or five 90 degree turns in a city environment, and a cop will lose you, but even in a car, its possible. Anyone remember this MT article from a few years back?
