Because only wimps back flip dirt bikes. Kain Saul back flips a Harley Davidson XR1200

Motorcycle USA posted:

In two separate instances, two thrill-seekers have attempted to be the first to backflip a Harley-Davidson XR1200. Australia’s Kain Saul took the honors on November 27th in Sydney with American Chuck Carothers making his attempt on November 28th in Prague. Saul’s success is believed to be the first time a complete backflip has been accomplished on any full-size street motorcycle.

I've always wondered where you could get like 160 or 180mm knobbies?

EDIT: The best part is hearing it bang off the rev limiter the whole time. It actually sounds pretty awesome.

There's actually a really nice pocket of air right there, it cuts the amount of throttle you have to use an amazing amount.

although that is incredibly stupid I'm sure there is a lot of us who _sometimes_ follow SUV's and trucks far too close so we can cruise at a lower RPM and reduce wind noise.

Yeah, that's what I mean. It's like breaking through the wall of a hurricane into the eye. I used to do it in my car when I was 18, but I don't think I'd have the nerve to follow that close on a bike.

LOL, he's not actually. But to add to the humor, that's his own truck that he himself parked there in that tunnel. I ride with his brother pretty frequently, and we were just laughing about this the other day.

He must have spent a fair amount of time in the hospital then because it looks like he helicopters right into the front of the camera car

In most sane debates, the bike ends up winning. There's something to be said for having half the HP but 1/5th of the weight. Of course, the bike also requires a good rider...

Also: Gotta wait for it, but trust me, it's worth it.

That's basically how chrome goes on normally (electrical charge attracts the nickel from the solution to the item to be chromed), they are just doing it without the dipping tank. Pretty neat.
