hmmm yeah they are just locking the rear wheel and sliding in, not that great. The speed and the high-speed wheelies are good though. When the duke stops near the camera half-way through, is that tinkling noise the clutch?

That be the Duke's famous dry clutch. Still sounds as if it's fooked though to me!

Ben...The Ducati clutch sound is an acquired taste and normally only appreciated by those of a higher standing mate. (I call to your attention sv_Dan's comment!)

Let's see you do it then .

Personally I thought the rear wheel sliding was a fabulous bit of riding, even though it's perhaps not really the thing to do on a public road. Must take a whole load of bottle too, got to get that rear brake juuuust right — or else you're joining the scenery.
