Buell kneedragging

[CarpediemGui]

theres a turbo whistler simulator on the exhaust?

[scooterschina]

Looks like fun, and much cheaper than a trackday!!

[bigrobnz]

man and machine in harmony......... it"s a beautiful thing!!

[vman996]

Good work bro....

[jezuz12345]

Nice! :-)

[chispygato]

THERE'S A POLICE CAR RIGHT BEHIND YOU, WATCH OUT!!!!!!!!

[Dennissays]

That's awesome. I think I have the correct knee dragging technique but have yet to safely test it until I grab a suit like yours. Exactly how much of your ass is hanging off?

[Jeremybaland]

@Dennissays I put just half a cheek off. The most important is the upper body though.

[sk8ererpunk5000]

and the cop said nothing??

[LedZeppelin13k7]

i did that once on my ducati monster back in high school doing 90 ish...i dont remember much of what happened until i was in the helicopter on the way to the hospital....im fine now though and I perfected it since then after i got a new bike. lol

[kunghenry]

You have long legs, haha

[rodrigoqt2]

Ainda vou aprender a fazer isto na minha.

[deathtoaccounts]

That's not knee draggin'! That's call "stretchin' your groin to get your knee to touch the ground."

[dbc1dc]

@deathtoaccounts Huh? What do YOU call knee dragging then?

[bubble4dash]

I have the Buell 1200 xbss and i can tell you all the bike is bloody awesome and I ride in the hills in Adelaide and you can lean these things right over without worrying about trying to hang off and knee scrape ...GO TO THE TRACK AND DO IT....

[Blam033080]

Then you come upon a unexpecting rock in the road on a turn, lose control of your bike and fly into a tree or guard rail looking like a road pizza

[nickv0909]

ya thats cool now lets see some real ridin likin see ya stick your knee out up in the mountains while ur pegs grindin , doing over the speed limit

[metalmaniv]

not worried about all the oil on that lot?

[metalmaniv]

holy shit thats Ephrata! I know those police cars!

[moonbal]

He's the cop! j/k

Anyways, how fast were you going?

[seeinglight]

not bad... I'll give ya 5 stars when yer grind'n de pegs ;)

[GuildDie]

[bnd200p]

@GuildDie

[bnd200p]

[michaelrichichi]

Are those stock tires, or did you upgrade?

[chuckman92]

They are the stock Pirelli Scorpion Syncs.

[downshift89]

I think they were* quite aware of the Police car.

If you think they were* doing anything wrong, you most likely need a brain transplant.

[humanmoron]

since when do you have to be doing something wrong to get a ticket?

[Cylence01]

That's the TRUTH

[mxracer578]

i love how theres a cop right there it adds something i just cant put my finger on...nice bike

[XtwoshipsX]

It's not illegal to drag knee

[dfrench80]

it could be illegal to e doing like 40 in a parking lot

[sreustle]

in front of a cop?

[bru21c]

Good Work!!

[wi1lo]

I wish i could do that infront of the police here!! "What's that officer?! I'm sorry speak up my can 5db over the legal limit i can't hear you...sorry what?! Go faster?! ok.."

[jcdenton7]

You don't necessarily need to drag knee at that lean angle. Also, I see you said you could control you bike in the event of a slide. That may be true for the rear tire, but a front tire slide can often land you on the ground. I'm sure you know all this, though. Good choice going Buell. I'm heavily considering a Buell for my next bike. (I've got a dual purpose right now.)

[kbkagm]

actually an open parking lot is what a lot of riders recommend you learn in. i learned in the canyons, and looking back probably a lot more dangerous than if i got my *knees* wet in a parking lot. i need to sell my monster and get a firebolt! like the front end a tad better than the lightning, but both are so sick!

[SocomNavySeal]

i think the cops are watching you...

[vitorblasques]

Really good skills mate and good video too! Thx for sahring. Hope I get as good as this some day =p

[wishnforyooh2]

This is awesome! I'm learning how to knee drag right now. Can't quite get it. I can't lean to the right that well because it feels like I can't control the throttle very well (in the way).

It also feels like I have a lot of resistance leaning a lot, thus hurting my triceps and wrists.

Any tips you can give me?

[csRocker]

i noticed the comment about the cop

luckily because i was gonna ask it too :P

lovin' the bike

it looked really cool

i'll try as soon as i get mine ^^

[jng1226]

Great vid - nice skills. How long are you legs (pants inseam)? The Lightning is not even that leaned over coming out of the corner and you're still dragging knee! Next time get the sparking sliders...

[chucspe]

How do you like your Xb9? Any comlaints?

[87hockeychick35]

nice vid. lovin the bike

[chuckman92]

Thanks.

[wwyatt]

Oil spots in those parking lots, be careful.

[xerycx]

Seriously, I cannot think of a dumber place to do that other than in the middle of an intersection. You are going to bust it doing that.

[chuckman92]

I am well aware of the "hazards" in that parking lot, and am able to control the bike in the event of a slide. Thanks for your concern, though!

[snowscum]

Whats with the police man sitting there?

[chuckman92]

It was just some cop that was sitting there at the time. Hope he enjoyed the show! ;)
