No your right, it's not big and it's not clever, but it does look cool. I used to ride like that. Somehow, for some reason, corners don't appeal to me like they used to

The video to that is amazing. He goes into that turn so fast that there's not a single inch for error. Scary but very skillful.

Cool stuff!

The problem is not with the bike, it's with the user.... Last time I had my knee down it was quickly followed by my shoulder and then the bike

Just need to get the confidence back up, but not until it warms up a bit and the tyres get a bit more sticky (hence the California Superbike School post).

It is in the US, and what I find amazing is that he seems to stay on his side of the road, at that pace, through a "flip flop" bend. Loads of skill..... (and balls)

sorry, i don't find that impressive

When stunts like wheelies and stuff are done in a controlled envirnment I enjoy them but when it's ****s on a main road I don't waste my time watching.

Sounds boring I know, just my opinion
