Maybe it translates better to stunting     http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQfFk3OiTTE

I cant help noting, that mr. stunt guy there... did NOT "have his weight on the pegs" to control HIS "rear wheel slides". it was all o the seat (and handlebars) 

I was referring to weighting the front wheel and pointing it where you want to go.  Can't weight the front wheel much better than sitting on the gas tank     On dirtbikes you stand on the pegs and lean forward against the tank to shift your weight.

Aha... so I guess that implies, if a person is "hanging off", or otherwise laying on the tank, they're probably good to go
