That's pretty cool. Is he going into a power slide?

To me a fascinating picture...

Look at clutch hand, and the chain slack- which says to me rear wheel sliding>> down a gear with he clutch and being feathered + some application of rear brake....

And the front forks are fully compressed

Setting up for a corner!!!!

DOODz- I realize we are all BADass with our latest flashes and HP vs. Torque for pipe A versus pipe B


But cheese and rice man- this guy can freaking ride!!!

all right people stop putting lighter fluid in the braking zone it could cause a tire to smoke maybe even catch fire

On the front brake still spinning the rear tire backin' it in.
How can you tell?
Smoke all the way around the tire and slack at the bottom of the chain just in front of the rear sprocket.
Engine braking would pull the bottom of the chain tight.

dont forget the fact that the front wheel is not in line with the rest of the bike... to me it looks more like he is just exiting a turn and getting ready to straighten out

IMO -
Front fork is compressed, brake fluid is pitched forward - hard deceleration.
Chain and smoke pattern on rear tire - spinning from being driven, powered.
Also looks like he's feathering the clutch.

Entering a turn and sliding the rear tire out on purpose?
I don't race, but that's what I see in the picture.
