Anyone know this idiot motorcyclist?

[Black Country Ste]

Let's pretend a pedestrian is strolling along the middle of the road, chatting away on his phone and looking for a break in traffic to finish crossing. Our motorcyclist takes exception and gives him a good shoulder barge, sending the hapless ped flying.

That's pretty much what happened here. It's not the best cycling I've ever seen but not particularly dangerous. An arrogant fool on a motorbike took exception to a vulnerable road user in front of him and decided to teach him a lesson. That requires a prosecution in my opinion.

The PC also needs a stern talking to concerning her attitude and listening skills.

Yes, it was the prejudice that made it depressing, the same prejudice that gave that motorcyclist the obscene self-confidence to boast about what he'd done and post the footage on the net. What a laugh. Jesus, these people are out there.

Yeah it's legit. The below details match the bike in the video.

Excellent, here's hoping he's been stupid enough to have riding without insurance added to his problems.

This is where I picture a swarm of angry cyclists descend upon his life and make it a nightmare lol.

Thanks for letting me know @Hip Priest , I only caught up to where he pulled over, and thought I'd watch tonight when home with sound, nevermind.

@PlymSlimCyclist, it's still on the Ducati website mentioned on page two of this thread..

When you get on to the Ducati website, scroll down to their post #29.

Motorcyclist should lose his licence, be banned for at least 5 years and his bike crushed.
Woman plod should be disciplined/sacked.
Cyclist should receive a full apology from woman plod, the Met and the biker.
Lots of comp for the cyclist should follow.

He's really gone to work on getting that video off youtube - taken down because of a copyright claim now... got a feeling he's going to have his work cut out though - already uploaded here - suggest anyone interested downloads it and shares it at will like this user did!

By my older comment I meant the cyclist shouldn't have been on the phone, that's stupid. You'd moan if it was the biker that was on the phone but not the cyclist..

But the biker was a retard. He deserves to be done.

As I said before the lengths he is going to to delete all his accounts on twitter, youtube, google+, etc just goes to show that he is sh*tting himself cos he knows he's in big trouble and it's all his own doing.

Probably a stupid question, but it is not obvious to me how I download it from the youtube page.
If I manage it, it might just appear on my Facebook page...

I think Firefox has an add-on for that.

Hi. I use a Firefox plugin called Video DownloadHelper - safe and free.
Sure there are a few others out there as well - hope that helps

Also - if you have trouble playing the mp4 that's downloaded then get VLC player - invaluable free player that plays pretty much any and every video format

 

[EltonFrog]

Well, at least we can rest assured in the knowledge that the motorcyclist is currently sh*tting himself right now as he desperately tries to delete all the incriminating evidence off youtube/twitter/forums etc.

How do you know this?

Thanks all. Used markymark's link and successfully downloaded it. It's now going on my Facebook page (not that I have a large following, but why not spread it around a bit more - hopefully he'll go the way of dear Emma....)
