that is freakin awesome!gotta give it to him...big kahuna's!can only dream of being able to ride like that!

 

[GConn]

Mad skills indeed!

On a side note, those Italians could make you feel suspense even if the video showed a granny knitting something on her knees...

 

[phxtravis]

Nice bike....

I think we're onto something here guys.... the next big thing will be drifting on motorcycles in the rain!:rockon:

I love the announcer, yelling "Fantastico" during one of the trail-breaking drifts. Awesome.

 

[tom5796]

Bravo-Bravo! Fantastico!

 

[jlsmith411]

Holy Crap! I wonder if that guy knows how close he came to wiping out? Still that was amazing.

 

[wrightme43]

He just has to know. There is no other way to just put it there time after time.

This guy is either one of the best track racers out there or insane. Maybe both? Regardless, that was intense. Not only did he drift through a lot of the twists, but he also pulled out of them with a wheelie or two. Crazy.

Nice..I love racing in the rain, most of you would be suprised how much grip we get with rain tires.

 

[wrightme43]

I love rain riding. Just love it.

The guy doing that in the video came in second LOL

 

[Norm]

I believe I would give my left testacle (are we allowed to say that?) to be able to ride like that. At my age I don't have much use for it anyway. Now the right one...well that's a different story.

 

[Mattberkshire]

He was in the ZONE

 

[Mississippi]

That dude is good. Got to give it to him...he has some big nuggets.

 

[Humperdinkel]

Awesome skills and an even more awesome set of Kahuna's on him , i dream of being talented enough to ride like that :thumbup:

 

[xj750_Pete]

Man that guy was sliding throughout the whole race. I wonder how much of it is due to Honda's traction control and actual skill...

 

[Hapi]

my opinion is that traction contol and wet tire grip make a big difference in comparison to our road bikes

They do make a big difference, but that doesn't make it easy
