Ever had another rider just reach over and grab your front brake? Vid
Haven't seen many videos of an assh@le like this guy. It's a track day and he just reaches over and grabs another rider's front brake, causing a wreck.
He just got charged with assualt in Italy. The article has more details. http://www.revzilla.com/common-tread...track-incident

Actually....its a track day, right ?
I'd bet he reached to hit the kill switch as a prank. A dumb thing to do when rolling but...kinda funny when waiting for the light to change. Had it done to me, did it to my pal and....I dunno....we laughed ? |

It's possible he hit the killswitch but the way the bike goes down there had to be some front brake there too. Perhaps the rider paniced and hit his own front brake after this guy hit his killswitch?
Either way the guy has some punishment coming to him IMHO. You don't hit someone's killswitch or brake when they are moving.

It looks like they are fighting? I don't think he meant to hit the brake and make him crash looked more like a push on the guys bike kind of thing

We used to do the kill switch at traffic lights.

That was 2 years ago. No idea why it's just surfacing now.
He used to ride for the EBR WSBK team before it folded. I've done that before, messing around on the dirt with my riding buddies. Messed them up, but nobody went down. |

Doubt he was trying to hit the kill switch for fun. Malice was fully intended.
