Yea. Almost looks like he riding a little too close to the edge. Looks like its only a matter of time before he looses it.

I'm still trying to figure out what's so special about this guy on an R1... looks like any other typical professional bike racer...

then again, i'm not experienced on a bike myself, so maybe that's why i don't see anything that sticks out...

looks like some was carrying to much speed. but there were a few that were braking hard enough to get the tire to start sliding and then some where he pinned the throttle high in the gear to spin. DEFINATLY skillz.

Hes really good. If you ever ride, youd know. Getting the *** loose on a bike is WAAAAY different then in a car. There are a few times the rear comes pretty far out, and he keeps ahold of it... at speed. Very very tough. Bikes are A LOT less forgiving then cars, there is very little room for error in the turns... unlike a car you cant brake when your full speed into a turn. In the car you lose some time, on the bike you go down.

And i agree with the post about him being on the edge... hes found the line. I hope he doesnt cross it.

This guy shows extreme bike control. Basically as stated before drifting on a bike is a lot diffrent from sliding a car. If he chops the trottle at all during those slides he will be pitched into a high side, and at those speeds it would not be pretty. Anyone who has ridden on a track on slicks know the feeling when the slick is dead. Basically I have had knee down and spun up the rear, its a scary experance o say the least.

Very Impressive
