Milandre is my new God!!! Loved that bit for sure but was it wet? He's the man! Rossi pfft.... He doesn't even back it into turns anymore.. So much for my biggest hero.
I am, I am!!! Though I've got no or very miniscuel skill in this department, it's one of the things that excites me the most and one of the skills I would really like to get good at..Originally Posted by Motu

Here is a screenie of the moment. If someone could be naffed it'd be easy enough to grab some frames and turn them into an animated gif.

I think Garry McCoy has been the most spectacular slider of recent years. That one was good but he was the master.

Sorry MR, but I'm not sure which season you've been watching but Rossi gets it sideway lots.
Here's the first example I could think of. Last lap at Catalunya. Didn't wait til the last corner either, this was closer to the start of the last lap.
Not taking away from Melandri's sweet display, just making sure credit where credit is due.

Nah. He spent too much time on his arse. A master would entail being able to do it without falling off all the time and ruining your career.

Yeah,I was really impressed with those slides of Rossi,smoking it sideways on the last lap.Just goes to show how much power those bikes have really got - do they have a switch to turn the traction control off....or is that just a myth?

I like this YouTube video of his slide

Haven't watched too many this season to be honest. Too busy.
Kiwi back at home!
oy watch this http://www.teamxmx.com/video/teach.wmv for some mad stunting backing it in and sliding the rear about like a baboon on heat!

yeah it is switchable, so they can use it for wet tracks, when their tyre are going off etc...also they have different fuel maps and they can choose which one to use, like choosing a more conservative fuel map if their fuel level is a concern
watching that slide had me squeeling like an excited school girl haha. I couldnt figure why his tyres were smoking so much and he was celebrating early then I realised he was on a 200kmh corner, not bad at all. for some reason the 250 will just not slide like that...
Geriatric hoon
I think it might have something to do with the 900s having about 260 horses and weighing maybe 150kgs ( all from memory, I'm at work).

That is impressive 200KPH and doing that. I try and do things like that coming through the sweeper on to the harbour bridge LOL

I will need to decided soon if I really will go ahead and sell the R6 right now. It's the most perfect bike for me but I can't have best of all worlds from just one bike... ATM I am not taking too many chances but to get that good, I will have to.. Can't have the best of all worlds with just one bike and I can't afford 2.
