That guy was fantastic! He was really working it in those turns, holding that big bike down. Simply amazing!

FXRs, Dynas, and Sportsters can do that with some sticky Metzlers and an experienced rider. That was balls crazy though!

I have taken fast tight turns on big cruisers and made sparks but seems like that bike was modified to not have anything interfere with the ground and he physically moved his body out of the way to get a sharper angle. Dude kicked the rear end out to make many of those turns. He pretty much makes any rider look like a little bitch

You don't kick the rear out to make turns. That's not a thing. His exhaust hit the ground and the tire lost contact with the ground. You can hear it scraping.

He definitely lost traction through throttle a few times

How does it feel?

Are you autistic? I feel both impressed and slightly fearful watching him. How did it feel for you?

A friend told me to put Metzlers on my Dyna. Best advice ever. I’ll never use any other tire again.

I had a bald Metzler on a 1979 Suzuki GS1000 and that bike would stand straight up with little effort. It would pull front tire in second and do 90 before third. I replaced that tire with a shitty Cheng Shin and the bike became scary. That was thirty years ago. No more super bikes for me.

He’s got to have a steering dampener to deal with that Dyna wobble. I can get crazy on my Fat Bob but I can’t ride like that.

At 0:42 he starts to become unstable but corrects. So he is aware of the boundary between stable and unstable.

[ - ] CasualObserver 4 points 1.8 yearsAug 23, 2023 20:05:41 ago (+4/-0)

Or the boundary between his exhaust and the ground...

[ - ] Clubberlang 3 points 1.8 yearsAug 23, 2023 21:05:05 ago (+3/-0)

Or the boundary between dead and alive

Y'all are nuts

[ - ] CasualObserver 5 points 1.8 yearsAug 23, 2023 18:07:34 ago (+5/-0)

I judge how deep I get into turns by the wear on the rubber, not the wear on the pipes!

That would freak me the fuck out if I slid out on the pipes.

Knowing your bike and roads.

He's been down that road more than twice.

[ - ] Crackinjokes 4 points 1.8 yearsAug 23, 2023 20:19:37 ago (+4/-0)

Notice how he recovered from the rear wheel slide and how his head is often inches from the rock out croppings

@con77 visiting California?

Those roads are the only reason to visit.

[ - ] Clubberlang 2 points 1.8 yearsAug 23, 2023 21:03:47 ago (+2/-0)

Plenty of those roads out there.

Berryessa comes to mind.

The bullshit thing about Harleys is that you can get them to out perform crotch rockets but you have to put at least $8000 to get close to what crotch rockets can do right out of the factory.

Apples to oranges dipstick.
One is purpose built for carving,the other is built for a bike payment.
Fucking Goldwings out carve any HD without issue.
Fuck HD

You’re dumb as fuck. Shit tier reading comprehension. And if goldwings are so fucking awesome then why did they discontinue them? I could have out maneuvered any faggot on one with my Road Glide. You’re a nigger fucking faggot to the max.

How can you see past that big ass nose of yours?

[ - ] texasblood 0 points 1.8 yearsAug 24, 2023 21:11:07 ago (+1/-1)

Good enough to see your broken ass huh.
STFU!

[ - ] CasualObserver 2 points 1.8 yearsAug 23, 2023 20:08:36 ago (+2/-0)

Uh, no.
Do you mean at a drag strip?
Geometry is a huge part of the equation around turns and $8k doesn't fix that.

Good until there is a dead deer on the side of the road.
