Of course I can get that low...who can't? Now, the other end of that statement ends something along the lines of, "if you want me to stay on the bike...OF COURSE NOT" lol That is definitely talent

That is massive torque & balance combined! Look how high his "flat-track" knee is above the bar. Bet the bottom of the forks have grind marks! Wonder what massive rear tire size & hsp/torque he's running.

Important to note that this exaggerated lean is achieved mostly through a MX style of pushing the bike toward the ground while keeping your body vertical, opposite of what you usually do on a sport bike where you hang off to the inside of the turn and try and minimize lean angle. You wouldn't want to aspire to doing this on a S1000RR with normal body positioning. This is more "trick riding" than good technique.

You nailed it! That is one part flat track + one part motocross + one part road racing power slide! Outstanding!

Well, I am practicing to corner at about 30 degrees and I am comfortably achieving 36 with a good average at getting back on track. I think that talent should be coupled with superb tires to be able to pull it off. I am sure that a lot more are going to try it now but I am not that confident with being able to go back straight from that stance.
Very interesting but very dangerous to do for you are for the bike as well.
