RIP

Didn't realise he was riding the Miku Bike.

A Very sad occurrence but not overly surprising. The Isle of Man TT has had 20 Fatal Accidents since 2000. This being the 21st. And its the 3rd Fatal accident at the section of the course in 3 years.

Its a wonderful event the Isle of Man TT but it is still extremely dangerous as its a Road Race and as such the 'Track' has none of the safety features you'd expect from a permanent Racing Venue.

Any Mistakes can lead to conclusions like this.

I'm sure if hatsune miku wasn't involved, he'd still be alive.

Add that it was absolutely chucking it down there that day and he didn't stand a chance. They should have postponed the qualifiers till the next day. Soo tragic. RIP. Crying or Very sad

I try to watch the Japan super GT (3) races when they show them on youtube even though it is in Japanese its not hard to hear what they are saying, In any case he was on the Motorcycle gsc racing team. That is horrible news and that track should have been removed from racing by 2008 after so many had already died on it. A trophy is not worth dying for. So many racers have died on that street course track.
