The human bobsled travels all the way to Japan to race with a motorcycle - see who wins below. Via Pink Tentacle.

1. Rollerboy is certified nuts. 2. The biker isn't even trying. He hardly leaned on any of those corners. Barely opened the bike up. I'd easily beat rollerboy with my chopper.

I would probably do the same, because i wouldn't want to run over the guy...besides to make it more interesting, both subjects would have to be in close proximity..

I dont think chopper can eat those curve like the rollerman did though. Chopper is a cruiser bike, not like superbike that can lean all the way to make a sharp turn. I'm riding a chopper & I like to practice my drifting when the road is wet, so I know a thing or two about these bike ^^;

There is def. no way a chopper would lean more than the bike in the video, I think the person on the bike was trying to be careful though.

Try out Star Motorcycles (Yamaha) Raider sometime. 1854cc and eats up curves like this. Not as well as say an R1 but very well for a production chopper. Plus the 122 Ft lbs of torque through out most of the usable RPM's means I pull away like mad. I score an 11.9 sec. in the quarter mile. The only cruser that beats it is the that goofy looking suzuki cruzer and that's only by a tenth of a sec.

see when you say chopper, ppl think about the American chopper chopper *i.e. suicide shifter, no shocks, etc Xp* they should have raced him with a scooter

reminds me of initial D... maybe the biker's trying to not run over the guy

Holy! I so want that roller suit! I love how he drift all the curve! Apparently the guy on the chopper didn't really speed up. Roller Suit FTW! But it's not safety at all when it hit something hard.........
(ID #331076) Posted on 2008/10/11 23:39
i think it would be safer than a bike hitting something hard at the same speed...

Wow.. That Rollerboy is totally nuts.. I like how he drifts down the mountain road, pretty awesome.. I think the biker can catch up to the Rollerboy.. Maybe he just being cautious not to hit the Rollerboy.. ^^

I think this man can create a new sport with Rollerblade that would seem interesting. That guy is crazy he could have gone off ramp...
(ID #331112) Posted on 2008/10/12 00:44
i wonder how he would fare if he were to go uphill instead of downhill?

they should make a rollerman anime in the form of initial d ^^ lol i would love to see twin rollerman drift!
(ID #331160) Posted on 2008/10/12 01:36
I actually thought this was kind of dumb... perhaps I'm not a big fan of these crazy abnormal challenges. I wonder if the motorcycle could have really won had there not been a human bobsled zooming around... or a camera to record the potential incident that could have occurred :P Uphill next!!

God damn that was freakish AWESOME. I need that suit. 8O
(ID #331208) Posted on 2008/10/12 02:24
rollerman still traveling pretty quick, consider its all momentum and physics
(ID #331213) Posted on 2008/10/12 02:28
yup that suit is only good if your going downhill & besides its got to be hard to stop going that fast. lets see human bobsled race up hill or even level ground.:)
(ID #331628) Posted on 2008/10/12 14:29
Terrible mental image of him flailing around trying to go uphill only to slide back down a few feet later.

I remeber reading about this, but hadn't seen the video. That was awesome. Didn't seem like the Biker was trying though...
(ID #331265) Posted on 2008/10/12 04:23
I would so like to do that :3
(ID #331282) Posted on 2008/10/12 04:41
Wow, seems like watching inital D where the 86 will use the curve to take the proceed into the lead as it can't win on just the horse power.

...I spit milkshake over my monitor. I hope you're happy. Like many people mentioned, this really does remind me of Initial D. It was interesting to see how he handled those corners by crouching up - very odd way. Would love to see in more detail how each of those wheels are attached and the degree of freedom they have with respect to leaning and turning.

I believe this wasn't exactly about who win or lose... but about a good show. Either way not many would go downwill on that suit.^^

(ID #337766) Posted on 2008/10/17 13:38
That thing looks awsome, his suit looks like some thing form a 80s power ranger show or something ....^^ Ihave to say you will have to be nuts to hit thouse corners at such a speed, very fun race to watch :D
