It's a combination of power, gearing, balance, and stupidity.

In my opinion those guys are idiots, only a matter of time till one of them gets hurt or worse.Doesn't do much for people's perception of us either.Just my 2 cents.

+1, 10% + 10% + 10% + 70% = 100%, LOL. Hope they don't do that often, need to be off road in a controlled enviroment.

I'm not interested in riding that way anyway but it's a lot of bike to get up there and ride like that.

These guys are IDIOTS....

I watched one of their other videos, this video starts with about two minuts of sh*t talking.. Then right about 2:08 in the clip the guy who owns that bike is doing a wheelie on it and ends up heading towards an oncoming car.. They are not going to live long doing shyte like this..

I imagine that he has some serious ca$$ to be doing something like that. Its so hard to do. I bet there are very few riders that can pull something like that off on that type bike. There is a guy here in NC with a 120R and an Ultra that can shift through gears with one tire up but not 90deg like that guy.

Very, Very dangerous. I love my daughters too much to play with ignorance...
