I read that as he was trying to do it on purpose, and failed.... 
It was ****ing it down that day
, I can make it spin when its dry. It ain't that hard... lol The SV will do a rolling burnout in 3rd, haven't tried 4th yet (I'm guessing it wont do it tho).

I doubt this.
In what?
That it'll do a spin or that I can do a rolling burnout in 3rd?I'll record my rolling burnout when my tyre gets worn out, I haven't even hit 1k on it yet.

Oh, I thought you meant riding normally, not just dumping the clutch for YouTube

A rolling burnout isn't the same a making a tyre spin in the dry through 'normal' riding.
I did flinch when he was bouncing off the limiter for 8 seconds.
And I may be old that's the sort of riding (even if it is on a closed off road) that gets bikers a bad name, burnouts/skids/wheelies...

Shifting all the weight forward, holding the front brake and doing everything to encourage rear wheel slip is entirely different to spinning up a rear tyre in NORMAL riding conditions.
It takes a SERIOUS amount of power to slip a rear motorcycle wheel in the dry, an SV650 is not making that power.

I'd define normal as riding normally, not trying to burn out tyres in the middle of the night
Exactly. It's just stupid.

Yep, just getting old and boring.
Having better control over your bike is stupid? Okay...

No, doing rolling third gear burnouts on poorly lit public roads in the middle of the night in an attempt to 'learn better control over your bike' is stupid.
I will say this for a 100th time, I practise on closed off areas away from housing areas...
Not even my bike does that. It tries to back flip long before I lose traction.
Yeah, I'm talking forced induction nutter machines with 300+ BHP which can break loose the back!

Sure, whatever.

You should know by now that every time you bring up something like this or you riding things you shouldn't or doing naughty speeds on "private" land that you're going to get a ribbing, stop getting in a huff about it or stop bringing it up.
I said in the wet! I couldn't get them to spin riding normally that is, the SV can spin the tyre in 2nd when its wet and its capable of a rolling burnout. I didn't say I can make the tyre skid in the dry without using the front brakes/clutch. 
I haven't practised in a long time anyway, I found a good spot which is 40 miles away and for a small amount of money you can access the area and practise. But its like 40 miles one way and the SV isn't exactly that great for stunt riding.
