Some pretty sick slow-riding skills - Motorcycle Gymkhana

[slipstreamv2]

While considering re-taking my NJ roadtest, I came across a few gymkhana videos. These guys are pretty skilled - I guess it's really big in Japan? Anybody Nesba members do this kinda stuff? Very interesting.

That stuff is so cool. Another set of skills! I personally suck at slow speed maneuvers.
If you can do that, you can pass the NJ DMV test! :idea:

Where in NJ are you? I'm in central...Somerset county. I know you're north, how far north?

Those riders take it to a whole new level.

Judy, slow speed stuff is just like the track, you have to practice. But the difference is the basic slow speed stuff is WAY easier than riding fast on the track. It's just a combination of headturn, friction zone and sometimes riding/ dragging your rear brake.

Hmmm, could've sworn I replied to this thread...
