Lean angles are high. Racing starts about 1:50 mark.

I'm not a dirt biker but I have a YZ250F (4-stroke) dirt bike that has around 2000 studs in a set of tires. On glare ice, it is a absolute riot to drive. Spring ice which has been frozen, melted and refroze has so much traction you run out of a place to put your inside leg. When it loses traction you stay on the gas and push up with your sliding foot until it hooks up again. I would lay out road race type courses from tracks I ran on. Going only to the left gets a little old after awhile. When done in the spring, my street bike riding improved due to all the winter debris on the roads. Not that I'm sliding, no way I'm pretty slow on the street, but it took away the "pucker factor" and helped in getting back in your groove.Lean angles are high. Racing starts about 1:50 mark.

this video is particularly interesting because my 1990s track bike handles the same way. heavy, fat and tons of torque.
I'm watching their body position and have to agree, that is way to ride them, smooth, almost no shifting required because of their huge power band.Last edited by Buffalo Bill; 03-23-2023, 03:54 AM.1982 GS1100G-

Vicious weave on that green thing. I was half expecting it to dump him off at any moment.Dave

It's sad AG couldn't keep his excrement in a cohesive state.
