That XL70 is awesome. I bet it would make an excellent commuter bike.

I love sidecar racing. When they go around tight turns with the passenger leaning all the way out and almost touching the ground, it looks like a lot of fun. Speaking of sidecars, I saw a shiny new Ural driving around near my parents' neighborhood last weekend. It was awesome.

Went to the Millville motocross races last year in August. Snapped a few pictures of the racers and a few bikes. It was all done with a very lovely camera. Track at 9am Ricky Carmichael James 'Bubba' Stewart Random R6 I saw

It has entered my mind on more than one occasion, but as much as I'd love a supermoto, I already have a mini supermoto and streetbike, so this is gonna be my dirt/dune machine. Regardless, it picks up the front end in any gear off hard acceleration, and I can ride a 4th gear clutch up for miles haha.

Out walking around today taking pictures, mostly small bikes: This big tired thing has been parked in front of the apartments since I moved in a few months ago. Since then, it's been ridden maybe twice : Yay Japan, weird little bikes everywhere. With all the SV650 talk lately I was hoping to run across an SV400 again today so I could put up some pictures of it.

That "big, tired thing" is a Yamaha VStar 650 Classic. Very good bikes & very customizable. I had one but sold it....and I wish I hadn't.

Spent christmas and new years in thailand, snapped a few bike pics while there. Choppah Rental scooters, CB400, this is a "Big" bike over there, only foreigners really ride anything over 200CC The bad rear end made in china dirtbike i rented. about 8 euros a day, 200ccs of dirt road eating fury. More faggy scooter paintjobs. You see guys on the 110cc scooters pulling these trailers all the time, i saw one towing a jetski and a banana boat on 2 trailers, this was the only sportbike i saw on trailer duty though

I have put 18,800 miles on it since last summer and it has no oil leaks or any other mechanical issues so far. It's not ideal for touring, but it's all I have. You don't have to make excuses for the M50. It's a great bike!

Thats drat impressive IF and only IF the water is more than 2 feet deep. Its tough to tell if he is just driving through shallow water really fast, or actually hydroplaning over deep stuff.

I've seen the video before. IIRC it's a CR500, and it is "deep" water. If you watch the back end of the bike you can see it bobbing around. It's not the first I've heard of this trick either. When I asked about it on a CR500 board the answer was that it just takes commitment, if you roll off the throttle at all, you sink.

# ? Jan 15, 2007 23:32 |

I don't really know how that stuff works but it seems really unlikely that water is more than half a foot deep.
|
# ? Jan 15, 2007 23:51 |

If he's not touching bottom, it doesn't matter how deep it is. It's just as impressive if it's 20' or 6". The story I heard was that it's 9'. It's the exact same thing that the quad people do, or the snowmobile people do.

That water's not more than 8 inches deep, he's just riding in a field with standing water from a few days of rain. My backyard with lovely drainage looks like that right now, and the water's not more than 4" deep anywhere.

You know it's really not *that* hard to hydroplane with a dirtbike over deep water....fast speed + big skid plate = gliding right over it. People do it with snowboards and snowmobiles all the time, this is no different. Just because yours isnt deeper than 4" doesnt mean this is the exact same case as you.

I forgot to post these after coming back from Singapore last month. Motorcycles are quite popular there. I saw more than a couple scooters with outrageous suspension components. Lane splittaz. The Greatest Lane in Singapore. This was strange just because so many motorcycles in the city were babies.

JESUS H CHRIST Saw this over on ADVRider - it's a vid of some guys doing some incredibly trick riding on trials bikes, including riding over the the arches of a suspension bridge. Turn down the volume, the soundtrack sucks rear end.
