    Am I missing something? Looks like your average spirited ride.

    Doing the speed limit in the turns, stand ups on the straightaways, denim gear? I think I remember that ride, from a few seasons ago...

    I gotta use that one, the next time I see the mother in law. It'll be my silence breaker at dinner!
    Thanks

    if you're gonna do it, do it right like the pro. your whole body has to be on the inside of the bike center line not just your butt. at speed they're doing, dont think there's a need to move around the bike. just ride normal.

    Cmon, give me a break. They're going like 45 MPH and moving their body's around? The only time I need to do that is if i'm going at least 60 and it's a sharp turn.

    maybe you dont NEED to lean off at those speeds, but if something were to come at you fast in the road youd be able to cut in quicker and steeper if youre already leaned over

    Maybe so, but I can turn in alot quicker by countersteering than using my body.

    +1. I agree a slight off the seat position is better than none.
    But a properly executed body position would be key in that situation.
    Upper body and head controls the lean, not the butt and hips. There's the potential for
    overloading the front fork in an evasive maneuver when you're back end is off kilter.

    Not to mention those dudes are way too close together.

    I used to get more lean on my way to work in the mornings. Not so much here in MA anymore.....I wouldn't call them posers tho. Im sure they rideway better than most people we know.

    Seriously, I was thinking I could ride with them on my 93 GSX1100G shaft drive couch, without hanging off. Posers indeed.
