I can do that. I just choose not to as I can’t afford the tyres.

Those bikes are wicked!

Showoff

The supermoto boys do that in most corners

brilliant

Same here

Only when they ride a proper motard though unlike an XT

Yes but this is a 260 hp rocket!!!

Amazing, wished I could ride like that, all jealous now. Wonder if he still suffers from injuries after that crash with Gibernault? I thought he was dead actually, scary.

It would have been funny if he shegged that corner and lost…

It feels great to powerslide!!! Not for the first time though, like

Yup I was staggered by that display. Never seen the like. And we rave about Rossi this, Rossi that and forget ALL these guys can ride the wheels off those bikes just some have better ones than others.

Total Total respect, AND I wish I had been trackside with the camera. Some lucky, and now rich snapper will have been.

masterfull!! and a nice way to pay back the fans …

we love a bit if showing off and that takes some beating

thanks marko

It was awesome and Rossi-like, doing something well lairy like that in the last corner, before he had it won . . it must be that the traction control lets you take the Pi$$ like that, but knackers the tyres double quick, so it was safe to do

Hayden often does some mad rear weheel slides all through the race, but is usually passed by Vale late on when the tyres dont work too well . . .

Awesome.I watched that and was glued from start to finish.

Saw someone had a vid like that as their avatar on another site.

First ozzie podium for 8 years in that race!They said the last one was Mick Doohan.

Terry you are beginning to annoy me a little, … question is… why do you do it?

Absolutely incredible!!! What a race! Wow… Go Suzuki!!! Melandri rocks, very nice slide.

I dont actually dislike XT’s but as you go on about them being so fantastic when there not it makes us laugh and its A WIND UP!

Oh and by the way thats not a powerslide thats whats called backing it in to a corner by going down into too lower gear and sliding the clutch out. As bike is in too lower a gear the rear wheel is locked when the clucth is let out and starts to slide hence why very clever supermoto riders can control this on the clutch and its not known as a powerslide

oh ok Terry, & let it be known, I don’t go on about them the way you describe it, but look… lol , I am a grown up, so no time for this type of bickering with 12 years old trying to act big, and this aint the place either. keep yourself to yourself and don’t quote yourself as US (quote "makes us laugh"unquote) but as an individual as YOU are the one who actually raised upon my reply. Rest assured in a more mature world we’'ll all live happily ever after.

ps: it’s also worth pointing out my original reply was: “The supermoto boys do that in most corners” I never mention the XT, this was only mentioned in your unrequested “ad lib” saying quote"Only when they ride a proper motard though unlike an XT "unquote

so it’s not me going on about them but you, I am afraid.

END OF!

Thanks
