i was constantly sideways, not as scarry as i thought it was actually very controllable.

anyone evr thought about bike drifting, with a stunter or somethin. im sure i could get good at it. soft front suspension and hard rear???

 

be careful

i think bike drifting is begging for a high-side

 

You probably weren't as sideways as you think. Either way it's a stupid thing to do and if you keep at it, it's going to bite back hard one day.

Go to the Gallardo vs. Ducati 999 thread and watch the video.

There also was a guy who used to ride in Moto GP who would always get his rear end sideways before turns, he was famous for his riding style. But I forget his name.

Yeah, there was a portion of Faster that talks about Garry's riding style. Others do it too, not as good as Garry does though.

Bayliss

Did you see what he had to go through to get that technique down? If that's not trial and error, I don't know what it.

 

Throttle control will keep the rear tire from spinning

Motorcycle drifting, otherwise known as "speedway".



Only difference is that these guys are actually racing, unlike the drifting popular in magazines these days.

Maybe I was thinking you were talking about the guy you posted in your pic, or the magazine comment. Don't take it as a flame, I guess I'm just confused

It's the "big brother of honda-tech hehe

 

Did anyone see Corser in like round 4 or 5 this year? He knew he had the win in the bag, and the last few laps he really let the rear hang out. They showed some glimpses of his crew, they looked nervous as hell.

Anyway riding in the rain can be fun, as long as it is warm out. I wouldn't say it is going to bite you in the ***, it is definitely controllable. I do it every now and then on my bike, but the again, my SV650s power is probably a little more managable in the rain than an R1.

 

OT but nice avatar German hehe

 

Just wait till you do your first track day in the rain....now thats fun.

You don't try to 'drift', it's more like trail braking in a car.
