Breaks my heart. No charges but I guarantee the families will sue and get something.

Yea and people posting in the news report comments about how they were good guys, even though one killed another on a stolen bike prior. Seems they like to steal motorcycles

If they stole my ZX10KRT they wouldn't have made it 5 feet before they were on the ground blinking, and grabbing a bottle of super glue to put thier skin back on.
Granted an R1 is high performance, but almost no bike is set up for racing off the show room floor. If they hit a semi they can't be skilled enough to ride the real deal. With the type of brakes that require actual warming up before they are fully effective. And the type of tires that aren't quite grippy enough till it's been put through its paces. And a variable engine brake switch, that would throw any non racer for a loop.
At least they saw a fitting end. Motorcycles reward stupidity very quickly.Lepton1 and passingthru69 Thank this. -
If they were bike thieves justice was done........
