    bike drifting

    I have been studying various drifting techniques and came across a Youtube video on how to bike drift. What do you think? Are these pretty decent tips?

    I have done some drifting in a car but I don't know that I would want to try it on a bike.

    Drifting in a car is more fun to watch, but doing it on a motorcycle seems like it would be more fun to do. If I ever get a motorcycle, I'll have to learn how to drift on it.

    Someone would have to have balls of steel or a lack of a brain inside their head for it. No offense and I am sure its just as batty as in a car, but I would try in a car before a bike anyday.

    I learned it by accident on my moped (governed to a speed of 30kmh in Switzerland) when the rear tire was partially deflated, pretty scary the first time but I loved it. I went through a few tires and rims over time. I'm sure I must have scared the crap out of a few car drivers on the road, but when you're 14 those things don't always enter your mind, I'm a lot tamer now

    Definitely understand what your saying, oldcanuck. I am most certainly a lot tamer than I was in my younger days; although there is still some taming left to be done.
