Motorcycle Auto Accident First Person View

Motorcycle Auto Accident

LAUGHLIN RIVER RUN 2015

LAUGHLIN RIVER RUN 2015

Laughlin River Run is an annual motorcycle rally held in Laughlin, Nevada. It is the largest gathering of bikes and bikers in the Western United States.

The river run was started in 1983 with 426 participants. It was “conceived by Harley-Davidson dealer Dale Marschke, who wanted to bring his customers on a fun weekend ride.” The name comes from the fact that riders are riding out to the Colorado River, on which Laughlin sits. Other riders go across the river to Laughlin’s sister city, Bullhead City, Arizona, Route 66 rides to Oatman, Arizona and Kingman, Arizona and also down to Lake Havasu City, Arizona. (more…)

Harley-Davidson Belt Drive 1910

Harley-Davidson Belt Drive 1910

One of their first real production models this is a beautifully restored Harley.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

Production in 1905 and 1906 were all single-cylinder models with 26.84 cubic inches (440 cc) engines. In February 1907 a prototype model with a 45-degree V-Twin engine was displayed at the Chicago Automobile Show. Although shown and advertised, very few V-Twin models were built between 1907 and 1910. These first V-Twins displaced 53.68 cubic inches (880 cc) and produced about 7 horsepower (5.2 kW). This gave about double the power of the first singles. Top speed was about 60 mph (100 km/h). Production jumped from 450 motorcycles in 1908 to 1,149 machines in 1909.

Harley-Davidson works in 1911

By 1911, some 150 makes of motorcycles had already been built in the United States – although just a handful would survive the 1910s. (more…)

Police Chase Motorcycle Rider

Police Chase Motorcycle Rider

Harley stunt riders in front of San Diego Harley-Davidson. Prior to a twerking contest, there were a number of Harley stunt riders

doing their thing on Morena Blvd just in front of San Diego Harley while regular auto traffic was also on the street.

Not certain what the name of the Harley stunt riders was, but, they but on a great show. personally, I think it would’ve been much wiser to either get a permit to close the street for a short period of time or to do the motorcycle stunt events in the San Diego Harley-Davidson parking area.

Luckily, there was no close calls, but, in an accident with a stunt rider and the passenger automobile would make headlines and be an absolute disaster for the San Diego motorcycle community. (more…)

Motorcycle Highway Accident

Motorcycle Highway Accident

I’m curious on what happened before this and seems to be a case of road rage. Is the biker dumb for brake checking right in front of a car? Yes, completely, but anyone who says he deserved to be hit, injured, etc., with that kind of mentality, is what makes riding on streets more dangerous. The driver too with being more concerned about his car than a human life.

Maybe if the car driver kept further distance like he should have then he wouldn’t have rear ended the biker. Doesn’t matter if the biker is being stupid it’s no excuse to hit him.
