    Agreed when you hear that inline 4 rip you'd think it was a bigger bike. They're estimating it makes 50-60hp which is more than the Ninja 400

    Yeah apparently that's a thing, there's videos with a bunch of them racing those bikes on the circle track. Japan is wild!

    They're specific to circle track racing. They keep your hands in a more neutral position while going around the track. If he had regular bars, the throttle would be up against his knee the whole time. It’s the same with circle track cars that adjust their alignment for track racing. You have to “turn” the wheel to get them to drive in straight line.




    Change of subject: I was looking at a Honda rebel in a parking lot today. I never though they were good looking bikes but i thought it would make an awesome dirt tracker. I actually just finished playing Days Gone (PS4) and the bike in that game looks a lot like a Rebel. Would be a fun build.

    Nope don't think so

    My favorite parts are @2:45 when the back tire kicks out and the inside pass @3:04 lol

    Your question got me curious so looked it up - the sport is called Auto Race... the bike has a 600cc Suzuki motor making 60hp and they can lean them over quite a bit

    Why has no one thought of a Ducati Scrambler as a hooligan bike? Theyre cheap and they look fun
