in a chase you'd be hard pressed to sustain top speed all the time anyway.

There is a better version of that video out there. In the full video the biker sideswiped a car mirror and broke his hand if I remember correctly. That's why he was shaking his hands like that. And it might be a good idea to realize that supersports don't work well in soft dirt.
He didn't look like he had it opened all the way up. He looked like he was doing about 20mph faster than the cars. If he had tried, he could have not only outrun the cops, but also the helicopter. Most have a top speed of about 130-140 mph. A supersport could do 180 mph easy.
There is no telling exactly why he was running in the first place, but the lack of a plate is probably a clue.
