I remember seeing this and the news article some time ago. The article definitely reported he was doing over 100.
I was thinking that too but when you look at his bike, you'd expect worse. On its way to going from 120mph to 0mph, that bike had to have hit things, tumbled and slid quite a bit. The tail fairing, triple, clip ons, fork, and frame just don't look messed up enough to me. But who knows, maybe it is legit. I just don't really trust anything I see in emails. :hs:
