I've seen loads of these guys on YouTube:

most of them squids getting their share of road rash,
some of them talented riders who actually master these tricks

but this guy is pretty awesome  :bowdown:
Getting a superbike to do some airtime = pretty impressive.

Ok, bit 'o googlin:

The rider is Bill Dixon, plenty more of his stuff on YouTube...



A friend of mine has a Corvette ZR1, he occasionally lets me drive it:  one day we headed out to a deserted industrial site to have some fun.
Basically one big slab of concrete, large enough to allow me to drift.
Biiiiig margin of error for if (when?) I ran out of talent.

Only time I've ever been sideways.  The prospect of doing that on a motorcycle? No, thanks.
