Makes me sick, this is the kind of thing that gives bikers a bad rep.
While i feel for his familly, friends, and the people who had to clean up after him, i would have little sympathy for the chap concerned.
From the police writeup and the eveidence in the photos, you may as well given him a gun and told himself to play russian roulette.
You ride like a asshole, too fast wrong time (on pulic roads) at night and with no gear on this is what happens.
From what i can see, no helmet, no leathers, no decent footwear. Whilst wearing all the right gear may not have save his life, it would have given him a much better chance.
Any young bloods take note of this - YOU ARE NOT INVINCIBLE!
My parents would not let me get a bike at 16, they both rode, at the time i was bitter, but I am so glad they didnt, or that could have been me. I was wild as a kid, 4 car crashes in my first year of driving.
I ride now every day, over 1000 miles last week, I love it and would say to any one thinking of riding, give it a go, BUT, always ride in the correct gear, within your limits and the conditions.

I'll guess that he went over the bars and went through the wall upside down, ass/back-first. That would protect his face.
For sure. He definitely spun... his feet were cut off by the ceiling bracing and left on top of the tiles.

Heh guys, just making a quick stop to your forum to share what what i know about the pics you have.
The accident report linked earlier is for this wreck, it happened about a mile from my house. I moved to the area a couple months before this accident, and I didn't know the kid. There are bumper stickers everywhere with his name on it. The earlier mention about this being over a girl is true..he was driving pissed off over it.
Thought i post the Google map link to the taco bell it hit, and also let you know they have since turned it into a Starbucks...which pisses me off although i guess no one would ever eat there again if it stayed taco bell.
Google map Google Map without my markups, its the building on north/west corner of Upstream and Jefferson
Thanks for sharing the pics, i have always wonder what it looked like because after the wreck there was two huge openings on each side of the taco bell.

i don't understand why you guys are being so harsh on the guy.. yeah he was probably doing something stupid, but saying stuff like, "thats one less on the road" and stuff that like is just being an A$$ and i'll apologize for this before hand.... i'm sure this will piss people off... but I own a "crotchrocket" and not everyone who has one does stupid stuff on it... the stereotype of all fast bike owners ride them fast is stupid. I will agree this guy wasn't being that smart, you can tell he had no helmet by the way his head is cracked open and he was speeding, but just because he was being stupid doesn't mean it's right to make fun of him and stuff. somewhere a family, a group of friends, and a lot of people are mourning over this and I don't see the humor in that. Maybe you guys don't know what it's like to loose a friend who rides a bike or maybe you guys have never lost someone close to you at all... i just think a lot of your comments to this are just gay. I feel for his family, i hate that they have to deal with this loss, and yeah it makes rides think twice.. but a riders worst enemy is not his bike it's everyone else in cars.. 90% of bike wrecks are because of other people on the road 10% are because people were doing stupid stuff... again i apologize for everyone that i just upset with this reply, but i feel that you guys are making a joke out of something that is serious

Thank you for your input. From the looks of the terrain he must have really been hauling ass!

Holy shit, I thought this thread would have died last week!! haha No way in hell that guy could have negotiated that turn at those speeds.
And Ryne, you are a moron. While cagers contribute to some crashes, I have seen FAR more accidents as a result of inexperienced riders or riders just being complete douche bags and riding like this guy was!

if you wreck and die that would make me laugh too Seriously.. that guy had to have commited suicide. No one in their right mind traveling at those speeds would ever think they could turn at that intersection. So unless there was a car he swerved for, it looks like he aimed right at it! but whatever... this thread is gold
You think if he was black and wanted to commit suicide on his bike he would've aimed for a Red Lobster?

but a riders worst enemy is not his bike it's everyone else in cars.. 90% of bike wrecks are because of other people on the road 10% are because people were doing stupid stuff... Sorry, but we've already hashed this one out and slightly less than 50% of bike accidents are the fault of automobile drivers.

I am the aunt of the young man in these pictures. I can’t tell you how distressing it is to me and my family to know that these pictures have surfaced on the web. My nephew was a wonderful young man and my sister’s only son. He was an avid sportsman (loved to fish and loved the outdoors, including riding on his motorcycle), a hard worker (was helping to rebuild our area post hurricane Katrina), a great athlete (he excelled in any sport that he played, especially baseball. He was an accomplished pitcher and right fielder on his high school team which won the state championship his senior year and he was recognized as a Nokia Sugar Bowl Outstanding Player), and a good son, nephew, cousin, and friend. We are sad that this tragic accident has foreshadowed all of his goodness. We think of him everyday and miss him. We pray that he is resting in peace.
