This is why the Japanese maxi trail is in decline. They think that 100 hp is enough, but of course, it is enough for a professional driver… .for us, “normal drivers”… .we need at least 160 hp to do those things…..


It would be really fun to try and learn many of these maneuvers. I think I could learn this some of this stuff, what would hold me back is while practicing I would crash the bike about 450+ times while learning some of the maneuvers. Also replacing the clutch several times from just the use / abuse to perform most of these maneuvers. I don't have the mean to completely trash a bike and blast it into the ground for a year, before the camera is turned on with a new bike.... (for me). LOL It would be a BLAST to learn though.
Funny to hear that rev limiter bouncing off red line- constantly ! LOL

I had a trials bike for a bit and sold it after realizing it was probably the most outrageously capable but dangerous bike I ever owned.

Sounds like me describing my first KTM, a 520 EXC. In the morning it was the most fun thing I'd ever ridden. In the afternoon it was the most scary thing I'd ever rode. I was tired. It wasn't. It was trying to kill me.

I'm betting he doesn't any old and/or reloads again. That being said, I had a factory loaded Federal Gold Match .308 round that was hotter than the rest. It was just a heavier recoil, but they're supposed to be exactly the same every time.
