Hi folks,
Does anybody have a link to that video clip of (I believe) a 250 GP rider pulling another riders brake lever, whilst going down a straight?

I remember what nixon is on about too.. Wasn't it as they entered into the braking zone.. The rider ahead braked, and the following dude's brake lever caught the barend, or such?!

No no, this was definately deliberate, the camera angle is from behind following two 250/125's down a straight, they are neck and neck, and the rider on the right hand side reaches over and pulls the other guys brake lever.

I've seen the video loads of times but can't find it now.

Think it was Hector Barbera and some other dude at Mugello on the straight. But cant find the vid either.

I know the one you mean (from around Y2K IIRC) where the guy leans over and grabs it with his hand. No crash occurs..right?

I'll try and find it later. Very Happy

That was simply very unlucky and makes me think that a slightly better brake lever design was needed than one which lets another bike push on it when jostling on a straight.

I'm definately not talking about the big pile up illustrated above, though that was caused by a brake lever contacting another bike.

Surely somebody knows the video I'm talking about!?

You'd think it would be big news, could potentially be a lifetime ban from the sport given that you could potentially kill someone.

This is one of the big reasons you see guards on dirt bikes - I've had a brake lever be caught on a branch when not protected and it's not a great experience!

Don't have the video that you want, sorry.

But...

Your post made me think of my 'darling' other half... at traffic lights when we pull up aside each other, he's been known to reach over and hit my kill switch/undo the velcro on my glove... think he might be flirting with me Laughing

Him and his mate will do daft things like pulling each others brake levers, if they can get close enough.

Next time he tries, go for his keys and chuck them to the pavement, then flick your kill switch back on and ride off Smile

I've not seen it in motoGP, but I've seen it on home videos in speedway I think.

That's some good advice... I'll try it - the look on his face would be priceless - just imagining him having to put his bike on the side stand,
scrabble around for his keys (at traffic lights) then catch me up... is making me laugh Twisted Evil Laughing
