Funny CBR600RR Launching with No Throttle

This is a rather peculiar use for a Honda CBR600RR, but nevertheless way funnier than we ever expected; launching the bike on the neighborhood streets without properly launching it, if you see the word play. Here's a calm rider trying to see how fast can hid CBR600RR go using only whatever power it develops at idle.
That's it, folks, it looks like Honda CBR600RR can do 15 mph (24.13 km/h) in the 6th speed without any use of the throttle. That is, in case you're doing this on a Sunday and don't live in the city, as we believe the other road users would not take too kindly on such experiments at 8am during the working days.

It would be really awesome to make a top with the fastest bikes at idle rpm, and see who leads, though it's rather hard to believe that engineers are aiming for such performance specs as they design the new machinery.

Oh, and we must admire the guy for his sure hands and not stalling the CBR, too. Wonder how would a Busa fare in such conditions...
