  • Stevo, who the fuck are you gert arm chair health n safety officer, i bet u aint ever riden a sportsbike!

  • @thesiknik Actually SteveO is 100% correct as I had said over a couple years ago. I wouldn't flame someone unless you knew they were wrong. Kinda leaves you standing with your dick in your hand lookin like a troll.

    Watch the MotoGP guys powerslide (well, not so much these days with traction control and all) and the difference between them ending in a high side and pulling off a cool power slide is throttle control.

  • You mean upper left corner (my other right) haha. Glad your ok.

  • I am dislexic? LOL I never noticed that.

  • High sides are usually caused by getting the rear tire spinning & going into an oversteer. As long as you keep the rear tire spinning, you will either powerslide the turn, or lowside.

    You cause a highside when you chop the throttle & the rear tire stops spinning. Then all of a sudden you have a lot of traction and the tire is not pointed in the direction of travel & acts like a huge brake.

    The bike will then violently flop in the direction of travel, throwing the rider into the air.

  • wonderful explanation of proper throttle control thru a slide. good on ya mate

  • @ezelder i never said he was wrong mate! calm down!

    Powerslide comes from balence and lean angle more so, throttles arnt that responsive on road bikes, if you rode a litre bike with any skill you'd know this!

  • rip headphone users

  • HE LOOKED KINDA RUBBERY

  • to avoid a highside u have to ease off the throttle smoothly when u start sliding, easy to say hard to do because of the reaction u get when u start sliding

  • @GoproNoob low side and slide when you dont let the throttle off, or high side and fly like you saw when you completely let go of the throttle and the back wheel all of a sudden gets traction again and isnt behind the front...judge for yourself. Me - ill take the slide

  • ouch looks like he bounced after he hit the pavement. i met a guy at work today who just dumped his bike because some jackass in a car cut him off and slammed on his brakes on the highway and he couldnt go to the hospital because he had to go to work and get everybody all set up and he's wrist was all fucked up.

  • @GoproNoob You are welcome. Ride safe
