A fair few of you will have seen this one already, but for the majority who haven't, here's Shaun Harris in April last year doing a couple of laps of the Taupo full circuit on Leong's K6 (I think) GSX-R600.

Watch and learn, boys, watch and learn.

Wow, that guy rides well. It's amazing how the bike can flick from cranked over on one side to cranked over on the other. :cool: Excellent vid jr, now why is it your fave?

Wish I was 50% as good as that.

Those guys being passed at high speed must have been shitting themselves.

Enjoyed it very much too.

Yeah, Mr Harris is an OK rider, I guess.

... why is it your fave?

Swot I aspire to, old bean. I'll be out on that track again later this month, f'rinstance, working on one thing at a time, using Shaun's riding as a benchmark. That video is gold for the likes of us n00bs.

Oh, yeah, hopefully this little bit of brown-nosing will get my 25% surcharge on Penske components wiped...

Good to see a gixxer being used as it should be! Just wish mine went like that...ok...it probably does it's just me that's the slouch!

Slightly off topic but if you click on the menu button on that clip and then scroll to the vid named "Can go crazy" watch this dickhead.
There's a thread on here somewhere about if your mates riding like a tosser would you tell him?
Well if this guy lived in the same province as me I'd ask him to ring me every time he was going out so that I could stay off the road!
Obviously has no wife or kids to worry about, what a wanker!

Would love to see some onboard of Shaun..... I remember reading him talking about using the gutter to stop the rear sliding and providing a bit of grip!? :gob:

+1!
Every time I watch Isle of Mann footage it gives me the heebiejeebies!
I'd imagine it'd be easy to get sucked into making a mistake following someone like that for so long, must be a pita if they're quick enough that you can't shoot by 'em

Nice save of the rear at 4:30ish.

That's a demonstration of total utter trust in your tyres and suspension combined with an unusual ability to block fear of death.
