Thanks, that was great. Is just me, or did the front ends look a little nervous on some of those bikes? Maybe it's just the Duolever doing its thing.

Incredible...and way too short. Lotsa fun stuff. Lotsa, oops, mea culpa. Those bikes looked way cool leaned over like that.

front end

Post by Bones »

dome....
The front ends looked loose because they got light and the back was a loose.... 170 hp will do that. Basically, it is when the bike is on the verge of wheelie-ing and the rear tire starts to spin up at the same time. If you watch, the moto GP guys do that all the time. So do the superbike, superstock and supersport guys.

Best not to try that in your neighborhood, though.

Cool video. Wish there was some way to watch whole races.

Thanks for the post here DJ. We never see this on our Speed channel.
I watched it 5 or 6 times now. Very cool.

The K1200R sure is growing on me. May have to get a test ride soon.
