Like the fastbikes video, these guys are very skilled riders... very familiar with the limits of the bike and would most likely destroy all here on the track. Anyway, the ones up top usually are a bit nutty anyway!
    Just to inform you, I've got the most over inflated ego of any KBer but I don't remember dissing their skills.

    As for saying they'd murder any KBers or a track, I'd be keen to take that bet. As I'm sure would Mr Shirriffs, Mr Sam Smith, Mr James Smith, Shaun Harris, Sloan Frost, Andrew Stroud........

    People of KB seem to forget that they hold company with some of the very best road racers in the world every day. I don't know of another single forum that boasts so much riding talent as KB, all of whom quick to step forward and offer advice or a helping hand. We're a remarkably lucky bunch.

    I've never officially meet you WT but that would be the most sensible post I think I've ever seen from you. Us off road types arne't big on giving KB bling but I might have to bling you for that!! LOL!!!

    There was definitely technical skill in their riding. However they should get the fuck off the roads. The skill in riding on the road is staying on your own goddamn side, and not having to endo because you came up to fast behind a car.

    Ah yeap, totally. I meant to say 'most'.

    I'd just be interested as to what these guys in the video have to say on the fact that one dusty section of road at those lean angles would have their front wheel out from under them in a split second and send them sliding straight into incoming traffic.

    Theyre very talented riders
    On the track they are fast talented m/cycle racers. Riding as they did in that you tube clip, they are the biggest squids I have witnessed. Don't try to tell me otherwise.
    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.

    I reckon the guy in front is actually not that bad. The rider on the camera bike seems to be out of his depth and fucks up constantly, because he has to try very hard to keep up. I haven't actually read all the posts in this thread, so sorry if I'm just repeating what someone else has already said.
    When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

    Having watched the video of him back it in between two cars and then square the corner off and go around the car infront before the 3rd car has a head on say he knows what he is doing... or is just f'kin lucky for about 40 corners in a row...

    or milky quayle http://www.photocycles.com/galleryim...2003/milky.jpg
    To figure out what lean angle is...

    It's got to be a piss take surely?? Shakey Bryrne? Has he heard of World Superbikes I wonder?

    I'm pretty sure a squid is someone who can only ride in straight lines, likes to rev the engine, refuses to ride with safety gear and all for the total pose factor.
