Famous YouTuber dies while attempting to do 300 km/h on his Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R superbike
We have seen several incidents in the past where YouTube influencers try to touch the magical 300 km/h speed limit. While some of them have succeeded in doing so, it remains highly dangerous. The latest accident of Agastya Chauhan on the Yamuna Expressway shows the same.
The horrific accident during the attempt to reach 300 km/h on the Yamuna Expressway caused Agastya to lose his life on the spot.
Many reports claim that Agastya was a professional biker. However, we think that he was simply riding bikes for a long time and making videos on them. Professional bikers go through regular training processes from well-established schools like California Superbike School.
The accident took place when Agastya was travelling from Agra to Delhi on Yamuna Expressway. The exact location of the incident is 47 Mile in the Tappal police station area in Uttar Pradesh. The rider lost control while attempting to reach the 300 km/h mark and hit a divider on the expressway.
The Kawasaki ZX-10R, which he was riding was splattered to pieces and even his helmet broke into several pieces. The rider died on the spot due to head trauma.
The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R features a 998cc, inline four-cylinder engine that can generate a maximum power of 197.3 Bhp at 13,000 rpm and a peak torque of 113.5 Nm at 11,500 rpm. The bike is electronically limited to a top speed of 299 km/h for safety reasons. It is a track-focussed machine.
