good riding, some turns you can see how the back wheel is sliding into the turns, very cool.
Are you pulling in the clutch when you shift? i was watching the shadow and i coulnt see you pull it in? I'm trying to see what some of the other bikes are, but your passing them too fast.

if it's 2stroke you can not pull clutch if you want!

IDK bout the clutch, maybe for 2 or 3 gear down shifts. Thats not me though, i wish i was 150 lbs lol. Thats my buddy i do the mini stuff with. Hes FAST. Infact he was probably putting down the fastest lap times that day. He was forced out of mini moto class into the unlimited moto class because of how fast he was in practice. So he raced kids on 150R's and alike mid to full size bikes, and 450 full size bikes. He crashed out twice, trying to pass big bikes in the turns, and still managed 5th or 6th place out of a big grid. All the kids racing teams dads were whining lol!

I wish, the camera failed to save 4 practices and the exhibition race. POS organ science cameras... angry_red
I couldnt upset the bike, even 3rd gear, WOT at full lean, and couldnt keep the pegs off the track speechless33. Only thing that failed me was the brakes were boiling half way through the exhibition race, and i lost 4th place to a 125cc YSR in one turn... the rest were 80lbs kids on 150cc bikes i could catch in the corners but down the straight they would get up and go untill the corners again :). Cant express my fond impression of this bike. I had my elbows up to keep em from looking like my peg ends...
Lol i know folks love xmr but i do think even they would have a hard time keeping up w/ this guy. Watch the same kx65 in the front row, 2nd from left, of a grid of nothing smaller then a 150R, with 2 450s in the group. And he needed a new top end going into this race...

I'd have to ask wich one from xmr??? Dude i don't think you've seen luigi 70cc derbi powered x12.Trust me that thing is insane.The way the the chassis and suspension is setup plus he can ride the wheels off of it too.
One thing i'll say though you guys got some nice flowing tracks out that away.I'd love to be on that track.Looks like a fella could really open up a bike on that track.That's a fast track for sure. The tracks on this side are much shorter and narrow plus bumpy at times.So it kinda breeds a different riding styles.

lol agreed. Next time itll be somewhere else, this is our first time having that camera, didnt know how fish eyed the lenz was, not enough apparently.
Yea i guess i havent see what you guys do out there, but i do know my buddies a fearless butthole who doesn't even let off throttle if theres even an inch of track not being used. N e ways,
Yea S, the track is bitchin'! They have a mini corkscew on the back sectoin, an esse turn w/ 2 off camber turns while decending 6-8 ft in elevation in the 2nd part of the 1st turn, end of the straight is a banked left that has about a G of force planting your bike into the bank at 35-50mph. And an off camber turn you can go WOT in 3rd at full lean, entry onto the back straight runs 70-80mph in karts. Its a fast and twisty track.
If u guys ever you make a trip out here w/ ur bikes, let me know, theres about 3-4 kart tracks in a 2 hour or shorter distance from my house. Most open track on different days each week for practice! Fees are like 20-30$ for a day of practice.

sorry about the anal camera view guys! bluelaugh I alwasy see that on moto GP and it provides a good perspective on whats happening with the rear end, and lean angles...which is cool for 10 seconds, not 10 minutes. Next time I am going to mount it on the front end somewhere. Sorry about not catching the actual race on the camera, but I was late to the grid after some confusion on why I was "asked" to run the UNLIMITED class...on a kx65...hopefully I can find some other adult kx65 racers locally to battle with and post some good vids.

im broke son! what you want a expensive video of a cheap slow bike or rather just photos of a fast...cheap, bike?!?!
I loved to make some more parking lot runs but our current lot feels kinda scary on any of our(friends and I) bikes. The slicks dont hook up well at 8 pm on blacktop in 60 degree weather, and the speeds approaching the exits are speechless33 at times.
We've modded a little bit beyond parking lot wars... its like mid super sports now.. lucky im within an two hours distance of like 4 tracks!!

those other bikes are 150rs
i only use the clutch for the launch, up and down shifts happen with no clutch input even when I go from 6th to 3rd in turn 1. Its all about rythm, and light rotational mass of the tiny two stroke! I tried to get away with clutchless down shifts with my KTM 625 (no slipper) and it was impossible to do quickly due to the huge ass motor. However every bike I ride I get away with not using the clutch on upshifts.
