I think I see knee sliders coming through the material on his knee and his whole leg looks bulky, I think he has leathers on under those camo pants.

Say what you want but I think he's having fun and having fun is what it's all about.

I know I'd be pissed though to come around a corner speeding and have a knuckle-head or two sitting on their bikes in the road like a couple of the shots show.

If anyone ever goes to Reno and Virginia City there's a good stretch from Virginia City to Hwy 50 that is the truck route. There are two ways out of Virginia City from the east side, the main route trucks can't make because of a couple of hair pin turns and it's the main road for most people but the truck route cut-off is the good one for riders and although you pass the sheriff's office at the top near the city I've never seen any coppers patrol there and you have great visibility to see past most of the curves.

The sports car club of Nevada gets that road blocked off once or twice a year just for them to have fun on.

I think I could take that guy in the curves

 

I don`t see anything wrong with that at all. In fact, that guy kept his line thru out the whole curve and accelerated coming out. Pretty impressive IMO.

 

Some hilarious comments on this vid.

 

I just want to know how they get video that good uploaded onto YouTube. My 1080p GoPro videos always look like pixelated crap

 

I'd say the guy knows what he's doing. Even with his body weight shifted that much to the inside, the bike looks to be at its cornering clearance limit.

 

Hell yeah, I thought that looked great. Seems like he took the right line and you can hear him scraping. Is the issue that he's showing off and didn't need to lean off the bike that much? Who cares looks like he knows what he's doing and having a great time doing it!

What made me laugh was all the guys doing wheelies past the cute girls, like pretty peacocks strutting their feathers...

The guy goes by Zack Nation. That corner on Mulholland Parkway has been known to eat bikes and their riders, just youtube "Mulholland Parkway Crash" and see for yourself.

I lean off my bike in corners all the time (not to the extent that I'm draggin my knee though) It allows you to take the turn at higher speeds while maintaining a larger contact patch with your tires and the road.

 

It's not classy to be a hater just cause you are not as skilled... yes he may of been leaned a bit too far for show but this is a hairpin turn and without him leaning he'd be scraping and he holds a solid line and exit from the apex pretty well for a bike not meant to tackle these terrains at such speeds.

Comment when you actually do a track day or two on a sportbike then you will appreciate this guys form and entertainment delivery. =)

 

Haha I actually never thought of doing that. Thanks! Until just a few days ago I had never noticed how clear some of the new videos are on there.
