I am a little uncomfortable to see anyone ride off to test drive a motorcycle I am selling. Here is another reason to be very careful on who you let test drive your motorcycle::shock:

Looks like the seller had issues as well.

Looks like a good reason to request cash in hand before letting anyone test drive.

I agree if won't let anybody test drive my bike if I didn't have it liscened or insured anyway. For a speed bump in a parking lot to kill you, you'd have to be doing something pretty stupid... I don't let Stupid people ride my Bike, even with colateral(cash). Don't really see the issue here.

Sadly a followup article in paper today reported that the test driver did die. His mother said that the guy was reported to be doing 90-130 mph when he hit the speed bump.:shock:

What the **** was he doing to get that to happen? Must have been doing something nuts. And very inexperienced. Speed bumps are nothing. I run them every day.

That happened too. I've hit the ruble bars at speed. Wonder what happened to cause this to happen too....
