This video encouraged me buying my first big bike. I have had big bike license since 2021 but I haven't bought or driven a motorbike since. So today, after watching this remarkable piece of fun, I called the guy on marketplace and 2 hours later, I'm a happy owner of a Kawasaki ZX-6R 1998 G1 in a very rare Ferrari red color, for 1200 quid. I have to admit that I'm not an expert of motorbikes so I followed Alex's refined used vehicle buying guide (as soon as the engine started, we shook hands).

Always hyped to see more moto content, but don't start smashing vehicles for the sake of a cheap laugh. It's dumb when TG/GT does it too; even in the state they were in, both of those bikes had potential for saving, or at worst parts donors. Throwing them off a cliff and then scrapping them is just wasteful, and there's no shot you crawled about in the bushes for days picking up all the glass and shrapnel so that's doubly bad environmentally.
