make it look so easy don't they Graeme :P for me the hardest part would be to have the balls to screw it on enough to break traction in the first place :D short pants and tee's for the foolhardy but I do admire the professionalism of some like Nick Bocha. Finally someone who speaks properly ;)

Yeah... I'd just be always worried about the highside. There's a good vid on Youtube somewhere of a guy drifting a Kwaka 9 too.

I remember years ago watching Eddie Kidd ripping up the streets on his YZ250. At that time I was doing a lot of riding and was a passable club level dirt tracker. So I got my DR250 out of the shed and went for a ride round town in the rain, trying to slide all the corners. Did OK for a while but just could not get knobbies to drift smoothly. Eventually dumped it in out front of Woolies  :D  Realised then and there that I haven't got IT.

Yeah, don't howl like a rotor does it?

Wonder if in 20 years there'll be a rash of people with diseases caused by inhaling too much tyre smoke???

Watch it closely & you'll see the corvette marked on the engine, probably only shows for a couple of seconds

Try this one.
Not bad for a bloke that started out with an idea to make skate shoes with his mate Damon Way in their garage.
Couple of hundred million dollars later an he's now doing this.
