Re: high speed burnouts
I almost got a ZX10R right after winter was over in 06. I was searching all over google to find **** about it and on some forum a guy posted it. He got going really fast and got on the brakes hard taking alot of weight off the rear end and started smoking his tire. The guy claimed he's done it faster but I can't remember the speed he claimed. It was all black with chrome decals just like the one I wanted. It was over a year ago & I don't have the clip anymore. Try searching zx10R stuff over on google I remember it was in a forum.
if you find it post the link it was fing nasty!

Re: high speed burnouts
I think that it is way to dangerous to do them at those speeds. Better stick to the slow stuff which looks more impressive and you'll stay healthy as well.
I would love to see a link as well though :-)

Re: high speed burnouts
I tried searching google last night and nothing. Like I posted earlier I planned on getting a ZX10R last year & I was trying to find something for it (can't remember what) and I came across it accidentily. I wasn't even searching for a clip so when I saw it, it was fing sweet.
I'm trying to think what the hell I was looking for so I can get there again.

Re: high speed burnouts
It's been a long time since I paid attention to them, but a couple years ago those shootout bikes were going low 7's at 200mph or slightly higher and the telemetry from the bikes would say the rear wheel was spinning 10mph or so faster than the bikes were actually going :YEAH
Imagine that, running a low 7 and slightly getting loose the ENTIRE time.
Shootout bikes ARE street bikes if you don't know, not those ******* NHRA pro stock bikes with slicks from a car.

If it's not dangerous, if it's not risky, then it's just not that exciting to me. High speed stunting is like those high wire trapeze people that work without a net.
I'm not saying I'm not impressed at all with slow speed stuff, ****, quite a bit of it couldn't be done at speed. I understand it takes a lot of technical skill, but the lack of risk makes it less exciting to do/watch. That said, I get closer and closer to building a stunt bike everyday.

Re: high speed burnouts
I'm probably alone on this seeing how this hobby has changed and how most of you ride, but stunts at speed are far far far more impressive to me than slow ****. No risk = No reward.

not saying your wrong; but people like slow stuff now-a-days because they are getting more into technique and arent worrying as much about how risky, just how hard it is to do

Re: high speed burnouts
I think there is more to it than simply the technique, that same technique in theory can be applied at highway +++ speeds and would be harder still.
It's a combination of things that I think would take many people to really explain. Innovation, trends, getting tickets/catching cases, adding shows into the mix, ease of filming, etc. etc. etc.

I can't be wrong when I'm simply expressing my opinion

i can see where your coming from; me, personally, like slow stuff cuz it feels harder to me so im more impressed when i see other people do slow stuff...

Re: high speed burnouts
The highway fast **** is more dangerous I think but you crash less learning.
The Slow **** is also very impressive but you usually crash more and less risk.
It's all stunting, highway SS, HC flamingo wheelies & combos. Or Endos, circles, SS circles, HC circles.
Both very entertaining & fun to watch.
