A motorcyclist showing off his more than 200km/h speeding in an online video has been caught out.
In August last year, 33-year-old Christchurch man Dane Allan Montgomery reached speeds of 220km/h on Banks Peninsula, posting a video of himself speeding and overtaking on double yellow lines on YouTube.
The YouTube video caption reads: "Nice Saturday cruising around the bays while avoiding idiot road users lol."
After a public complaint, police charged him with driving at a dangerous speed and providing false information over who was driving the motorbike.
Today in the Christchurch District Court, community magistrate Sally O'Brien sentenced Montgomery to eight-months driving disqualification, with a $1,150 fine.
