Good skills. 8)

The camera seems to tilt about quite a lot :blackeye

Bike looks quick - I'm guessing given the size of you it's not a 125cc? :lol:

Kawasaki ZX10R Ninja. 1000cc, 200bhp, 200kg, (plus 120kg rider with all the safety gear on)

We had typical Spa weather, so very changeable, and only got 3 dry sessions in on the last afternoon. I was still learning the circuit and getting up to speed, thats the last session. I had a very badly balanced front wheel, which is whats causing the vibrations. the leaning over is all me :D

Eu rouge looks properly sh*t your pants terrifying. Especially with people getting passed on one side then t'other.

I will never ever have the balls to do that, ever. I'd be bolt upright and a proper hazard. :lol:
i3s, Volvo and more pushbikes than strictly necessary.

....did i ever tell you about the Evora and VX220 i used to own?

Great video and scarily quick WankR
I defy anyone to watch it without leaning

Your mate in front (Spike?) is either super-confident or has a death wish.
He uses a lot of the rumble strips...and from memory they were lethal on a damp day

for those with epilespy, here is a chatter free lap

the chatter and vibrations was due to a badly balanced front wheel. made it quite tricky to go fast on
