:wave: I think he has pretty good motorcycle skills. :laugh2: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0hlV3XucLQ]YouTube - Chris McNeil A Hard Day's Work Part 1[/ame]
 
Damn! I don't think anyone could be as good as this damn biker!

Even though I am biker, I have no idea how he can do the shifter, clutch and brakes (2) in harmony


again DAMN!
 
Wow, that is amazing. That guy do have a very good skills on motorcycle. :)
 
Boy... this guy has way too much time on his hands! :crazy:
 
with enough practice, you can be as good as him. But, i don't wanna see the bills for all the parts he scuffed, broke, crashed while trying to learn and perfect his balance technique. All i can say is if going in circles makes him happy then leave him be. :roll:
 
:rofl: Look fun but not to me. It's just the "balancing" act on clutch and throttle. See that he had his bike rear wheel up. He did this by briefly locking front brake and quickly release a bit to let it roll. It takes practice to get it right. I'm sure he have crashed bike alot before he got it right then use nicer one for the show.

Personally, I never wheelie on motorcycle even I tried to do that on 1979 Honda 750-4 Super Sport, I snapped the clutch and it just won't wheelie but it smokes wheel. Cuz the 4 cylinder engine on front was too heavy to wheelie. Honda 750-4 was a meanie bastard back in 80's when I was 15 years old and nearly flew off the motorcycle when I attempted to do 0-75 in few seconds. I had to really squeeze handlebar tight enuf to do 0-75mph less than 5 seconds upshift to 3rd gear (bit scary tho) :eek2: But I have gotten an idea on how to balance clutch/throttle to get the result.

Yup, back then in 80's we don't see these crotch rockets, right?

Seriously, I went from 0 to 60 in just 3 seconds. I wasn't even meant to speed, and didn't realize how many horses in there. That was Suzuki GS1000, and each cylinders has its own carbs, total of 4. Image how much power is in it with lightest vehicle?

Honda 750-4 Super Sport have same thing what you said. Each cylinder have own carb. It was a red body and frame with black engine. So they did have crotch rockets back in late 70's and early 80's. They're no difference. The only difference is today is Fuel Injection.

here's link

They do sell 6 cylinder Honda 1000 back in late 70's and early 80's and I wouldn't ride that or else it'll take off like lightening without me :eek2: :rofl2: cuz I was 15 at that time.. Here's pix

Basically, I've smoked tire alot without using brake and burnt pavement 15 feet long and my brother (the owner of Honda 750) went :jaw: cuz he couldn't do it.

I am sure he practiced on some old bikes and like they say...practice makes perfect, eh?

Now I am wondering how often he has to change the back tire as he spins alot. They should say "do not attempt at home" at the beginning of the video.

Finally, Nicely done!
