    Cool vid, cheers for posting.
    For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. Keep an open mind, just dont let your brains fall out.

    just sounds like a buzzing bee.they always look fast on an empty track.

    Why would you ride that long and that gnarly stuff if you don't have to, Its what we do, we love it.

    It doesn't matter (I do know who he is), tabbytim is right, it is easy to be fast on a 125 when you have the track to yourself... well easy when you have Decotis's talent anyway. But add in a 450 or two, squaring off each corner, using sheer horsepower to make up for the lack of corner speed (compared to a 1250 and just generally getting in your way when you're trying to use the only advantage the 125 has... not so easy.

    I dont really get what your saying. When do they ever stick 450's in with 125's in races with riders the level of Decotis??? If there where a bunch of 125's riding around the track they would all be going fast because they would all be using the same line. The point im saying is its Jimmy Decotis, the dude is fast no matter what he is riding, i gaurantee he willl be fast on a 450 also.

    Yeah I get that he's fast (in fact he's really fast), it's more of a comment that he looks ultra fast on a 125 in that vid because he's not got any traffic holding him up. I'd just like to see how well he can ride the 125 when he's got other bikes to get around and he has to work it a bit more than just holding it WOT everywhere (was just using the 450 as a reference, because they have a habit of getting in the way of smaller bikes in the corners).
