yeah, but that guy wasn't tryng to look cool, he was just trying to balance.  the first guy didn't have a helmet and wanted to look badass, didn't have any idea what type of power his bike had.  I feel bad for the second guy, not the first.

In italy there's a saying...

BAAGHAADOOSSHH!!!!!!!

I agree, thats why i haven't gone over 60 on my gs yet, still learning it, haven't had the tach over 8000 either.

I just wish I could get that link to work.  :x

Did you try right clicking on it and saving it to desktop? Mine plays with Quicktime just fine.

Watch it in slow motion and you can see the physics of a high side really clearly.

Can't stop laughing at that first link, hilarious!  :lol:  :lol:

Okay.  I got it.  Ouch.

So, I don't have speakers.   Did he gun the engine and slide it out, or were those bricks too slick?  

Looks like it doesn't take much to upset a liter bike.

Cold tires + slick pavers + too much throttle = dumb a$$      :lol:

He gunned the throttle, and the rear slid-out; then it looks like he backed-off the throttle and sort-of high-sided.  But if that was a high-side, it was a very small, gentle high-side!  I bet he's just bruised (except maybe he rashed up his left hand thoroughly on the cobblestones).  He's lucky he dumped it there, rather than a mile down the road at speed.

So...
remind me again why anyone would want a touchy throttle?

but he looked soooo cooool  

...before he met mr pavement  :lol:

He did look prettycool, didn't he.  

Ah well.  Maybe someday I'll have that much panache.

Holy crap! I didn't even notice he didn't have gloves!
