  • Video: Biker Gets Scaly Surprise At 155 MPH

  • A rider traveling at about 155 MPH was understandably surprised when a rather large snake slithered out from inside his bike. Keeping his cool, the biker calmly pulls over to the side of the road and takes care of the situation.

    Animals getting into car and bike engines is quite common, with many documented cases of rodents and reptiles making their homes inside of motor vehicles. We're not sure if this particular snake was poisonous or if it really poised any kind of danger to the rider, but we are thoroughly impressed with how long he lasted with the big serpent resting right near his hand.

    Check out the video for yourself above.

    If you were wearing a heavy leather jacket, leather pants, leather gloves, full face helment, etc, etc the "Snake Scare" would be deminished a whole lot, even if you do not care for snakes.

    Thanks for the information and success. http://www.kabbanet.ro http://sitedesignnet.ro
    ...So without knowing what I was going to be doing I made a firm promise to myself at that point, that I wasn't going to work for anyone else ever again.

    forget about the dumb ass snake....what could have brought him to his demise was the speed not the snake factor. Some of these bikers need to see the guts and chipped teeth and other bodily fragments left on the road when their fellow bikers crash. But you wont actually get to see these dead folk on the street cuz police and the others rush to cover them with a sheet....how wrong is that....let them ' sheetless ' so others can learn from their mistakes......I say

    I would have lost it... Forget laying the bike down, would have jumped straight off the back. Salute to keeping it cool.

    If you have dreamed about dating a millionaire, you may check MillionaireLoveLinks..it's where wealthy people meet singles who have similar tastes and lifestyles. It's worth a try!


    But wait - what's that yellow thing surrounding the digital speedometer? It looks like... yep, that's a snake all right. The how and why of it got there we don't know. Probably trying to warm itself on the bike's engine, we guess.

    In any case, we suggest you watch the video to see how a calm, level-headed man might react to such a situation. Well, calm for sure. We're not so sure anyone who'd willingly ride a motorcycle at insane speed on public roads, passing fellow bikers in the face of oncoming traffic could be called level headed.

    The rider kept his cool but that kind of insane speed on a road like that is criminal. I drive on a two lane no shoulder road everyday that winds and climbs and people also walk along it making it a very distracting and dangerous stretch to drive even under the best conditions. I also hate a similar plague we have here in Memphis, idiots on Kawasaki Ninja motorcycles which are the loudest, most annoying and extremely dangerous bikes in this town. Harley riders are respectful, these Ninja riders are idiots. Mostly younger people who have no respect for speed limits or noise levels and are beyond criminally dangerous with the incredibly stupid moves made that I see these types of riders make almost everyday.

    I know plenty of people that ride Harleys and will try to play keep up with me ZX636. Plus that annoying ass loud rumble that i hear a mile away is much worse than the sound out of my bike. Don't even start with Harley riders and sound; with all their "Loud Pipes Save Lives" rhetoric.

    Back in the summer of '98, I hit a deer going 120 mph on my '95 ZX-6R... and (by the Grace of God) didn't lay the bike down. Instead at that momentum, I literally sliced the deer in half and kept on going.

    Granted, I was covered in deer blood from the waist down and the front end on my bike was trashed (forks were bent, etc.) - but, I was still alive... even without wearing a helmet.

    Seriously, I shouldn't be alive at this VERY moment. Even still, I just purchased a 2001 ZX-7R and will continue to keep riding for as long as I'm breathing.

    The driver is an idiot. Look at how fast and close he passes the other bikers. If they happen to move a few inches, they're both dead.
