    They deff had a lot of confidence going into those corners. I can only hope to get to that point on the dirty bike.

    i'd imagine hitting snow with ice tires would be like hitting sand on the street.


    I've heard horror storries of studded tires on pavement being just like ice

    cool to do, but in reality there is some 14 yr old kid on a 250f that would smoke them.

    In reality, who cares?

    I'll go out on a limb and say I'm pretty sure riding your street/race bike on a frozen lake isn't about who smokes who...

    Re: Sportbike Ice racing video

    Ridingwith the tech screws was amaizingly good on my old 250, I couldn't imagine the difference with those spikes!

    Traction is actually better than good rubber on dry pavement! The fact the spikes can dig in to the ice is a big advantage! I am pretty sure those spikes are in there solid as the tires are ussually sold with the spike installed and they are bolted through the treads.

    Cool video.

    There is a couple of ice racers on this board if I remember correctly?

    Man...and I was already resigned to look forward to skiing this year. Now I need to figure out how I can make that happen. Where can we do that?

    Get yourself a dirty toy something in the 450 variety, and then get some of these http://www.shopfrpoffroad.com/index.htm

    Then pay attention to the dirt forum once it's cold enough for ice.

    It's a fuckin blasts. Usually on sundays in maine.
