Title: Riding in the rain
Post by tragicallysteph on 07/11/11 at 10:57:33

When it's wet outside we usually ride with a little more caution.

But some people know how to push a little harder:

He's clearly had a gyroscope installed in him surgically..
Who knows anything about the tires? Are those things super sticky? Even if theyre Flypaper, he is definitely playing right on the edge of Dee Zaster,, Did you notice how hard the front dives under braking? Hard to believe it didnt just lock up, amazing riding,, just amazing.

On the busa, even in the rain, once the tires are warned up they handle just as good as dry. The dangers are the same as fair weather riding rocks, dirt (mud), oils, cagers, water on the visor.

These guys here have no grooves in the tires to push water out, but track design off sets that. Theres NO way I would push my bike that hard in the rain.

Those counter stearing moves are not easy! Even more difficult with the rear end locked up. I had the rear slide out under exceloration ONE time on a wet patch, had go home and wipe, shower, and chande my drawers!
