CHP motor down while escorting POTUS.

[Rel]

He's okay.....

Crash at about 90 miles per hour. Officer was leapfrogging and hit a hitch in the roadway.

This is how you wreck a motorcycle.

Glad he is OK.

 

[hophead]

Yeah glad he is ok! I don't think that's gonna buff out there rel, just my professional opinion though..:teeth

 

[sanjuro]

Glad he is ok.

Maybe he had on an Icon Vest...

Re: Buffing out: I said the exact same thing.... :rofl

Like they'd be given Icon vest.... however I did hear he slid a long way on his back and that new textile jacket held up quite well.....

I'm sorry but I laughed way too hard at this. Seriously glad the officer is alright, though :thumbup

!ay caramba! :wow

Glad the officer is OK.

 

[Cincinnatus]

GWS, Officer! :thumbup

So there's gonna be a new parts bike for the station real soon? :teeth

 

[Abacinator]

Video orientation fail. I'm glad he is going to be ok :thumbup

 

[RightCoastBias]

Ban assault POTUSs.

 

[Bad Santa]

Wow. Glad the officer is okay. Looks like he chucked that thing down the road pretty good. That might actually be the fastest I've ever seen a Harley move. LOL.

They should make phones unable to film in "tall mode"

 

[tuxumino]

glad the MotoO is OK
was it a harley he through down the pavement?

 

[bikeama]

Plus one on rider being OK. Sliding is a good thing, stopping quickly is not.

Note on buffing. Start with 25 grit and work your way down to Crocus cloth.

[Hoho]

Glad to hear the gear held up well and that the officer is ok. :thumbup

 

[byke]

Fack, thank god for that jacket. Don't they often wear a short sleeve button up?

 

[Tharkûn]

The jacket is a three layer textile from tourmaster, I'll wear the mesh layer up to about 88-90 degrees but then it gets too much. Other than that I wear it all year and leather in winter

 

[SFSV650]

Injuries to officer and bike aside, is that a bump in the road that caltrans might be compelled to go take a look at?
