A video has been shared on Youtube which shows a bunch of bikers in Argentina riding as a group. Some of the bikes in this group are the made-in-India Bajaj Pulsar 200 NS. Some riders are performing a wheelie, including a NS200 rider. While performing wheelie, the rider fails to notice that the biker in front of him had changed lane, and was now in his lane.
Soon there was an impact and both the bikers fell off their bikes. Luckily, none of them was badly injured. But the interesting thing here was the NS200 motorcycle of the fallen biker, was still going strong on the highway, probably because his bike’s accelerator got stuck. So now how is one suppose to stop this bike? Well, one of the other Pulsar 200 NS rider in the group was brave enough to race forward without a second thought. From what it seems, this other biker is trying to turn the ignition off. But sadly, he does not manage to do that. Instead, he imbalances the bike without any rider, which results in that bike banging into his bike and him falling on the road. Below is the video which shows this series of unfortunate incidents.
