1935 BMW racing!
« on: November 20, 2016, 05:18:30 PM »
Check this out- absolutely no Guzzi content- but a tremendous effort nonetheless.  This rider absolutely wrings out every ounce of capability out of this old girl. Just great form.

"This rider".......hahahahahate tetetetethehehehesn ortsnort

That's Troy Corser...for him, that's like jumping on Honda Ct90...nothing like riding a slow bike fast. Looks like a hat full of fun.

I know, exactly! I love seeing the bike do the shimmy as he piles through the turns. Check out the super skinny tires. Another great point is the announcer comes out and says, "the brakes....well, there are no brakes."  Great stuff.
