If you watch their posture, they're intentionally backing in a sport bike as if it were a supermoto:P I fing love it. However this behavior cannot be condoned for obvious safety reasons. | ||

That is awesome! A little too close to becoming a hood ornament once or twice though. | ||

Musta been before cell phones were invented.... | ||

Irresponsible is only the beginning. Take it to the track. Sure would like a lesson or two on "backin' it in" like that, though. Getting a DR650 supermoto conversion next week...  | ||

Thanks, I needed that! 17 minutes in--enter a real supermoto guy! Here's the two Torque did of us last year, no where near as crazy, but some might enjoy it as well. | ||

Stupid on the street, still fun to watch though. I wonder how good these guys could be on a track? Sliding on a knee and dragging his hand like he's on a snowboard or water skiing? Wow. Definitely don't condone, but how cool is that(!?!?!?!?!?!)? 'Least they're wearing the proper gear    | ||

I wish I had roads like that where I live!  | ||

Patches... looks real to me... unless they somehow got a cadaver and shredded it and lay it on the ground there...  | ||

The most Expensive DOT Snell Approved Helmet and Leathers-Body Armor Suit won't help you if you hit something that does not move, like a Tree. If you hit another vehicle head-on collision it is the speed you are going plus the other vehicle speed. I know this from Experience, Not Good. It's great to show your skills, just do it on the track. There is a young guy here that thought he had skills doing a slow burn-out when for some unforeseen reason the bike caught traction and jumped did a tank slapper. He is now Paralyzed from the chest down. Old Biker Saying: Ride Hard, Die Fast.  | ||

I did notice that there is one riding boot, and one gym shoe sitting among the carnage. | ||

Bunch of idiots if you ask me. Don't get me wrong, I'm guilty of doing a lot of stupid stuff on the road, but at least stay on your own side of the road. Sometimes you need to pass slow moving cars, but not in a blind corner. Wrapping yourself around a tree is one thing, going through someones windshield and possibly killing them and their family is another. Thanks for posting this, it makes me realize what a dummy I can be at times. | ||

I admire their skills, I deplore the venue those guys need to do that on a track.... | ||

We have a few meat-filled wheel chocks every weekend in So CA. Being the most impressive street racer doesn't help when oncoming traffic is answering a "CRITICAL" cell call in mid-turn. | ||

Ya can't get away with spending that much time on the wrong side of the road for ever. | ||
| Rpm4x4 |
That is beyond aggressive, its suicide.  | ||
| Bosh |
It's just a matter of time. It'd be fun to watch though... as long as I didn't have to help clean up afterwards. |
