Check out his other vids. He does it into and out of turns. No discrimination with Pierce. youtube> sidewayz mitchell pierce

i won't desagree on that one

I think the wheel count gave that away. :-D
It is obvious that slipper clutches are common nowadays, but it wasn't such an easy thing to have 4 years ago.
And apparently Mitchell's bike doesn't have this device fitted. That's what makes it so hard and that's why only a skilled rider such as the one portrayed in this video can do it

it's not a truck :D ,
slipperclutch is quite comen in today's world

I must say, these are some wicked moves he's showing. Some guy here says he's not backing it in? The wheel automaticly wants to go straight back to the original position offcourse. you cant hold a non-power slide into the corner.. if you use a powerslide it could. But who cares, this video is sick :D

The clutch only "feathers" the engine braking actually, if you select a gear too low for the speed you're doing, the engine will do the braking, and it brakes so hard the wheel locks up, the clutch is there just to let the rider choose how much engine braking he wants on the downshift.

Mainly clutch and both brakes to be fair..
That ain't no power slide made... power slides are when you exit corners and open the throttle wide. What you see here is a rider with good control of the back brake. By applying the back brake (without locking the wheel of course) the rear wheel is turning slower than the front wheel and it makes the bike go sideways which can be very practical to set up for a tight corner.

I just have one question, how come they aren't waving the 'crazy mofo' flag?
