If only we all had mastery of our bike like this guy.
« on: November 06, 2012, 10:06:07 PM »
Now I know this is not an ST, but it does show what type of control can be achieved on a big heavy bike. These are the BMW1600GT and it's heavy at some 340kg. The mastery of the rider is suburb. :-++

Check out the link below

I hope you enjoy

This guy is just SCARY! making a big heavy monster sit up and beg like that, and lazy circles with no hands whilst lying back on the seat??? Amazing!

It must be great to have the manufacture pick up the bills when one takes the spills.  :bl11

I don't think I'd be buying that "demonstrator".  "Flogging" comes to mind.

Evenin' All...

I was very fortunate to get close up and personal (as it were), with Christian on the promenade in Douglas while at the I.O.M. a few years back...he (on his 800 Beemer), was with a few others stunt riders and all showing their skills...was amazing and was chuffed to get the Guy's autograph :thumbsup...thought things couldn't get much better...

....I think I was wrong :eek

That is impossible.  No one can jump all over a bike like that!!  It had to be trick photography!    :grin

It's more than bike control- the guy is an athlete!
