Fun with Google Maps - Obliviontoad - 05-31-2016

So I was touring satellite imagery of the Kumamoto Plant, when I decided to hit up some Street View Imagery. Found a HRC Racing shop, lots of bikes and 2 door Honda cars. Had a good look at the gates of the factory, no street view in there obviously.
Driving around virtually, I saw a motorcycle in the oncoming traffic. Saw orange and white, and said, Repsol... so much fun. Zoomed in and saw it.

There goes an hour I'll never get back.

Nice find, Obliviontoad! If you move on past him and look back, you can see hime starting to lean into the corner. Then he vanishes.

A couple of months ago I was having coffee in a café when the Google street view truck drove by. A few weeks later I checked and there I am!
