So that must mean that 90% of the people on this site can't ride for shiet, or Kyle is one fast mofo.

probably a mixture of both

but who cares really... none of us are racing... well ok some of them are... but for us who aren't racing... who cares how fast you go as long as you have fun...

from what I've heard though Kyle's not slow

One fast mofo. Simple math. 449 members...I would venture to say that there are not 45 faster

BTW, to make use of the big dude/small bike effect of that video in order to better interpret what I was trying to illustrate:

Draw a mental line through the tops of rider's helmets, and back tires on the minimotos as you watch them through the S turn. Because of the big dude/small bike effect, it's really easy to read rider position.

Now, track your little mental stick figurers through the S turn.

See how it's a nice smooth arc?

You gotta be humble, even Rossi is humble.

Thanks guys for tootin' my horn though, it is appreciated to know that others notice that you are 'good' at your hobby.
