[QUOTE="rhody, post: 796613, member: 1605"] [MEDIA=youtube]NKURNzl7cSY[/MEDIA] This video was posted in my last two posts as: Smooth Rider: It is fairly short, about 11 minutes, just wanted to ask how you think the style of both riders, one sport, one racer match up. Honestly I liked watching the first 5 minutes or so of the sport rider, smooth as silk, whereas McWilliams was ringing it's neck and making it cry for mercy. In the last minute or so there is a head on shot of McWilliams topped out I believe in 6th gear heading right to left down the straight on the track, you can see the pressure wave he makes before he hits the brakes hard and bangs down to third before slamming it into a corner. I believe traction control was turned off as well because the bike was squirming under the immense front braking load. Seemed like it only took 3 or 4 seconds on the video. If you had you preference, who would you like to ride like ? I think the sport rider's style suits me more than McWilliams. I think he would be tough on everything, brakes, clutch, tires, and suspension. I am sure if he was paying for his ride he would tone down his antics. Rhody... [/QUOTE]
