In fact, that was my worry. Going off the side of the Mountain, resulting in an 'endless slide' - to the bottom.
I remember the days partying hard down the river going up for more beer with my mate on the back similar road surface to in the Video but corners closer and narrower road but with decent drop offs ( never any comptemplation of going over the edge ..not with beer on board) full opposite lock feet up slides every corner trying to keep a continuous slide ...like drifters do these days...there and back..him holding the carton (24 cans) with one arm and holding the back of the seat with his free hand.
He was young and silly but trusted me..,350 yammy two stroke..perfect geometry..only doing 110 klm max...probably less.
It was very exciting for both of us.
I think on a light bike its best to hang it out so it does not suddenly jump out and surprise you.
Alex
