"This is not a trick shot. It is supermoto racer Rudi Bauer #69 showing that with enough skill and the right tires, it’s possible to ride through a corner with the handlebars scraping the pavement."

disclaimer: can't see vids at work :(

Wouldn't you be putting a lot of pressure on your right foot? If so, I would think that it would actually slow you down due to the resistance? It's def cool as hell, but is it the fastest way to go through the corner?

I too, had multiple variations of that this weekend. Only with a KTM on the dirt. But I can guarantee that there were handle bars sliding on the ground. :up:

Interesting - as someone who also uses the #69 on my bike I felt compelled to try this on a supermoto bike a couple years back (I must have been ahead of my time).

Someone here has the picture - post it up!

You may have misread the op. It said, "dragging handlebars" not "dragging face." I'm no scientist, but I think there's a difference? :dunno:
