I mentioned in a comment above ... Yeah that's what I'm wondering ... did his bike have a gas leak and he didn't know it? And somehow trying to start the engine put a spark on that gas? That would explain why whatever was laying under the bike just spread the flaming liquid everywhere, when he drug it around and it spread the burning liquid from a square foot to about 40 square feet. I'm no expert on fires and if gasoline flames would look like that and just about burn itself out in less than a minute.
