Extreme Speeding

On Tuesday, March 14th - a Ponchatoula, Louisiana resident was busted for ultra-speeding and unintentionally promoting the efficacy of the Yama R6 motorcycle.

Brian Willis, 20, was held on charges of reckless driving, flight from an officer, and blazing down the interstate at around 155 mph. Willis claimed to arresting officers that he didn't know he was traveling at double the posted speed limit or that he was being followed by state police.

Yamaha's YZF-R6's are one of the fastest motorcycles in the world, able to achieve a maximum of around 16,500 rpm, though I wouldn't recommend testing that figure on a state highway.

Willis almost certainly misses his.
