What makes the feat more impressive -- and stupid -- is the fact that it was apparently raining at the time, the Associated Press reported. The speed run occurred on Wednesday night at about 8:00pm EST, though exactly what make and model of motorcycle Anderson was riding hasn't been reported. We're betting it was either a modified Suzuki Hayabusa GSX-1300R (pictured) or Kawasaki ZX-14 or the seeming bike of choice for hooligans and speed demons everywhere, the Suzuki GSX-R1000. We suppose any liter-bike from any of the other main Japanese makers or an exotic Italian, and BMW's S1000RR, could be capable of attaining these lofty top speeds as well.
The state trooper that initially spotted Anderson used his radio to alert other officers of the speeder, cementing the fact that you can't outrun a radio no matter how fast you go.
Oh, and Anderson's excuse: he was on his way to visit a friend at a hospital. Anderson himself, meanwhile, could have very easily ended up in the morgue.
