Yes its very old....but still very friggin watchable. I'm astonished that he doesnt even use the clutch once in all of that. I'm good at low speed control but i rely on using the clutch a fair bit. Is it just the way he's set up the revs or fuelling?
Anyway its effortless, like he's riding a bmx.

I bet he would sweat a bit if he had clip ons rather than big wide handlebars!
