Suzuki GSX1000R and Yamaha YZF-R1 300 km/h Fly-By

Speed is nice, and that's a highly-redundant phrase. However, riding at full-speed on public roads is not exactly the wisest of all the things one can do with a powerful bike.
Now, it's also true that you just don't get to live near a race track and for most of the riders, finding a place to throttle all the way up is an impossible task. And that's hos we get to street racing and seeing bikers fly by at unbelievable speed... and terrible crashes ending up in fatality and tens of thousands of dollars in damages.

Here's some footage of two riders clearly enjoying their machines and throttling all the way up, passing full-speed in front of the rolling camera. It looks impressive, but that not quite the safest way to ride through the countryside. Akrapovic silencers equip the Suzuki GSX1000R and the Yamaha YZF-R1 starring in this movie, just for the records.
