He was probably searching in the bag for where he left his common sense.
Brilliant thread title :lol

WHAT they " filmed by an unmarked police patrol for 16 minutes"
16 minutes :eek why the FOC did they not pull him after 2 minutes because during that extra 14 mins he could of caused a massive pile up and I think the police would have to answer some questions

Just what we need another p***k to make us all look like complete tools. Cheers you t****R. We all have our moments of madness on a bike but that was complete reckless stupidity.

Also, if a massive pile-up had occurred in that extra 14 minutes the Police footage would have "mysteriously" disappeared so as not to incriminate them.

Although this guy is riding like a prick and there's no need for it on a motorway, how much danger were other people really in? He never hit anything he never caused anyone else to swerve etc they can throw what ifs about all day but at the end of the day I wouldnt say he put anyone in anymore danger than a car driver on their phone yet they wouldnt be jailed for it if they were caught?
A ban is definitely deserved buy I can't see the point of needless jail time
Re: Muppetery in motion - Nemesis - 18-09-17
Think the messing with the ruckshack was more stupid, 8 months be out in 4, 3 for good behaviour we all know the rest, slot on good morning TV, maybe a book :lol

16 minutes they followed him :eek ... They were probably expecting him to win a Darwin award instead (given enough time).
Re: Muppetery in motion - celticdog - 19-09-17
Definitely a few sandwiches short of a picnic. All it would have taken is a stone or a bit of debris on the road during his acrobatics and he would have been a goner.
Re: Muppetery in motion - Disorderlypunk - 20-09-17
there are places to wheelie (kind of) and the m6 is not one of them
kind of shit wheelies really aswell
maybe he was getting some practice in for elvington wheelie championship
Re: Muppetery in motion - steve 10562cc - 20-09-17
Best he find a disused airfield and practice there HE SURE NEEDS THE PRACTICE and his sheer stupidity wont lead to a possible multi vehicle pile up there. Total T****r

Indeed.

Dudeofrude, you ever had to slam yer brakes on on the motorway. Don't fancy coming to a hault in my car (or on my bike for that matter) and finding some dude on a sportsbike slamming into the back of me at full speed cos he was, umm unbeliveably, rumagaging in his backpack.
But agree they followed him for 16 minutes? And does locking him up really help him, or anybody else for that matter? Ideally confiscate the bike, fine him 5 grand and ban him for 2 years with resitting test required. That should make most idiots think.
Re: Muppetery in motion - fazersharp - 20-09-17
I wonder where he is from
Re: Muppetery in motion - YamFazFan - 20-09-17
...and the make & model of the bike?.

I'd rather it be an idiot on a sportsbike that hits the back of me because he's wheelieing than a retard in a 2 tonne car because they are on their phone. As I said he more than deserves a ban and that bit with the rucksack was a special kind of stupid but I just think the jail time is unnecessary and an unfair biased punishment towards him because he's a biker.
Somebody not paying attention in a car is much more dangerous than someone on a bike yet they would have just received points and a fine if they were even caught.
On that subject I was on my way home from work earlier and at the lights a young woman pulled up behind me and as soon as she stopped had her head down in her phone. I kept an eye on her as we pulled away and she didn't even look up at the road for at least 500 yards!!! And even then it was a quick hlance then back down at the phone. That to me is far more idiot and dangerous than a wheelie any day and is also the reason I filter to the front of every single queue I can to avoid getting hit up the are by a moron like that
