Lady L riding her 2009 Yamaha R6. Back seat perspective as well as from a bike following.

Please note they are riding Highway 74 between Lake Elsinore and San Juan Capistrano. In my humble opinion, she is greatly exaggerating her leans in corners. It could be that she is going much faster and/or are more curved than they appear, but based on my own spacial recognition… The roads are not curvy enough, nor is she going fast enough, to require such extreme movement off the bike. It can be good practice, though!

Having good bike control is one of the most important parts of riding. I work every day to become this good or better. Taking basic rider training is only the first step in learning how to safely test your limits and acquire higher skill levels.

“Saltcracker” the 1939 Indian

Lars’ Indian is a 1939 model with a ‘741’ engine, bored out from 500 to 600cc. He built this bike to run at Bonneville, in the 600cc Special Construction Vintage Supercharged Fuel class. (Yes, Saltcracker is not only supercharged, but also runs on methanol.)
