Walmart after closing??? real ambitious there...not sure about those stores around you...but around here, that only happens like 2-3 times a year.

As for snow...I just got a fresh layer here, #?*!

I've wondered about autocross on a motorcycle - there it is.

Anyone else notice he's either applying the front brake constantly, or has the lever set up very close to the grip, and probably doesn't have it set up very grabby - maybe not even able to lock it up. Also looked like a good bit of clutch feathering going on. Rear brake as well.

skillz.

I really got to learn this, then I wont have to do 10 point turns to turn my bike around in my driveway lol
There has to be some steering mods to it because I know there is no way my bike will turn that sharp with or without me even being on it

it seems like your bike cannot but I am pretty sure the rider can still make all those turns with your bike. it really is up to the skill of the rider. clutch control, body position, all of which comes with countless hours of practice.

the mods he has probably just makes it easier to do it, but still possible without. IMO

It does seem he has pretty straight bars which would mean he should be able to turn tighter then mine as they pretty much touch the tank.
Either way those guys have some serious skill

It must be a conspiracy!.....If you watch more of their videos all of their bikes handle that way......they only sell bikes that don't turn that far here in North America.....lmao!!
