    If you don't like me calling him a squid, (I guess you really like them), then change "Squid", for "Fuckwits".
    That better?
    My view of a squid, is any rider who hasn't learned how to appreciate the thrill of m/cycles without endangering other people to such a level as shown in the video.
    The skill level is irrelevant in my eyes. I would rather ride with a total learner that understands the responsibility towards others, than a couple of racers with ego's that get in the way of common sence.
    Fuckwits, Squids, Cockheads, call them what you want.

    Campervans parked up on the side of a coastal holiday area have toddlers/children close by.
    They showed total disregard to the life of any human in their vicinity.
    I'm surprised those holiday makers helped them up.
    Maybe they like fresh squid.
    Just like the MFSC back in they day

    There were a few blind bends there.

    Pretty nervy stuff.

    I don't think the guy following was as good as the guy he was trying to keep up with. He lost it more times than he should have on the road.

    $750 regos for these guys is far too cheap.

    They'd say that they're riding on fine European roads as opposed to shit covered New Zealand goat tracks.

    Not sure if the camera bike is even using the clutch lever much TBH.

    I should not look into this thread. It just frustrates me...

    How do you suppose a K1-K2 GSXR1000 (you can tell from the instrument cluster), is backing it in? They don't come with a slipper clutch so you ofcourse have to feather the clutch in manually. I won't even start with the people who are talking saying "hmmmm... I wonder why he pulls in his clutch into corners hmmm..." Are they blind to see that the bike is going sideways and this is intentional?

    There, I've said my bit and I feel better.

    No, I can't tell from the instrument cluser as
    a) It's a gixxer and they all look the same to me
    b) I don't wear an anorak.

    Did I say he's using a slipper clutch? I don't think so. I doesn't sound like he's doing much "feathering" either. Sounds like he's bangin it down the box and pinging out the clutch to moi but I'm not as well educated as your good self.

    Don't worry bro, I was not trying to attack you or put you down. I was just having a venting session after botteling up the rest of the BS on the thread.

    FYI, to enter a corner like in the vid, you either need

    - to half clutch it so that you can considerably slow down the rear wheel with out fukin up balance or locking up the rear.
    OR
    - a slipper clutch (you did not say it had this but if the above proceedure is not done, "backing it in ain't possible"

    Anyway as you were you guys, I need to stay out of this thread as I said.

    I tested today and found that my engine revs decrease when i use the rear brake.

    Failing that i use inside out tyres.

    I found that if I fart before going into a corner it results in an extra 5 to 10 kays on entry speed. However, if I do it mid-corner then the extra gas upsets the bike*.



    * at least it doesn't upset the girlfriend as she can't smell it on the bike


    Much

    Your wrong.
    A squid is a fish.
    A fish that will turn, then use jet power to squirt to the next corner.
    A motorcyclist "squid" is well... you guessed it, fast on the straights and slow as hell in the corners.
    These guys in the video are certainly not squidding it.

    Darwin would not be pleased...a squid is not a fish!.
