Have you guys ever seen this before, i's from my side of the world...

A crazy swedish guy who has "ghostrider" as his nickname...
He was chased by the cops for many years before they manage to catch him....
When they found out who he was, he turned out to be one of skandinava's top roadracing guys, he did not get a factory ride cause his .. what should i say.... badboy behaviour and attitude

He raced the isle of man many times and aslo beat Valentino rossi at a test session at nürnburgring a few years back

ENJOY

Ghostrider is a nutcase, from what Ive read theres actually 3 or 4 different riders.

You are on to something here, but no one really knows, they have found out that it was the swedish wheelie team( it's a stuntriding team) who was riding in the vids, but one of them died in the 2004 isle of man race, so there is only two left, the one who got caught, patrik furstenhoff or something still rides for the SWT after he was released from prison ..... maybe a swede can help us here
He is currently world recordholder for the fastest wheelie.... 368,7 kmt

In the busa turbo vid, the camera man-rider is doing 270km+ and gets passed by the busa turbo...doing a wheelie, no less! :shock: :shock:

Kinda like what a 500 does to an...80!

For those not mathematically (or metric) inclined... 270km/h is 167mph. :shock:
