This is bad-ass

  -  I think this video is awesome,  backin-it in everyturn in the rain, with a broken collar-bone.  How do you say "Brass-balls" in Japanese.

Talk about rear-steering! Reminds me of Gary McCoy....except McCoy was pulling those moves in the dry!

Great vid!

I have a poster signed by Gary McCoy, the memorabilia dealer said that it was a pic of him sliding the bike.  I was disappointing when it was a pic of him with the bike standing up down a straight.  I actually like racing in the rain, the first lap sux as you are getting wet.  Then once you are soaking wet, its fun.  I think the ridng styles of different riders really caters to wet or dry conditions.  Bayliss fell down that race,  Kiyonari ran away with it.  No shortage of talent from either rider, but I feel Bayliss might not be able to race that well with a bike that moves around.  Similarly Rossi and Stoner in the U.S.G.P. Stoners bike was moving underneath him on entry and exit, Rossi's didn't move at all.  They both ran identical times.  Last year Dustin Boyd told me rain is the great equalizer..................................I hope it rains alot this year.
