Title: Moto Gymkhana ... ever hear of this m/c sport?

Anyone here ever hear of Moto Gymkhana? I've only recently learned of it ... a motorcycle time trials sport with its origins in Japan ... Riders using street-legal Sportsbikes, Nakeds and Motards compete on a pyloned course consisting of slaloms, tight turns, figure-eights, etc. (much like some of the drills which are part of a Motorcycle Training Course ... except of course more "technically advanced" ...) for the best overall time. Fascinating to watch ... the Rider Skills displayed are amazing!

Heck, I'd be happy if I could just remember the correct route, let alone ride it! ;D

Some guy on here was wanting to disconnect the safeties on his Savage. This is the reason I cautioned him against disconnecting the kickstand lockout. ;)
