Bring back Mick Doohan, a stroker NSR500 and none of this namby pamby traction control...

Last corner, last lap. Awesome stuff. One of the many reasons Moto GP r0x0rs my b0x0rs.

Scuzi · 20 Sep 2006 at 22:06

Impressive stuff.

I used to be able to do that on my DT125 on wet roundabouts

Granted that it was at probably less than a quarter of the speed but I like to leave that bit out

Yes yes yes - that rocks. Hard. One handed too! :cool:

How about this one? This is probably one of my favourite - want to make me go out and play on my bike video...

There is sliding in it... Just later on in the vid.

For the king of slide on the old 500cc 2-strokes, you want to find footage of Gary Mcoy on the RedBull Yamaha's.

Your quite rightt It improved markedly 1m 30 in.

I'm wondreing if its its actually possible to not look cool riding one of those bikes.

And did I actually see some one wheel spinning slightly WHILE doing a wheely? :eek:
