Anyone got any good articles on these? I'm pretty sure it'll all end in tears, but since getting my DRZ, I've been quite eager to give it a go. Laughing

When you see the videos of the supermotos doing these, do they start by backing it in, and then power sliding out? Or is it more one than the other.

Massive thanks in advance.

Basically what they do - best to keep to backing it in first.
It's still got the potential to go wrong. Sure it's been covered in more detail if you search for it.
Basically (covering the clutch all the time) go into corner, as you're starting to lean, dump it down a gear letting out the clutch quickly. As it starts to side, use the rear brake to keep the wheel slowing down more than your road-speed is slowing.
Obviously try a little at a time and do it somewhere 'safe'.
