And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
great example right there, caught perfectly, thats "backing it in," steering with the rear brake, usually you use a thumb lever under the clutch lever, its a serious trip, time it with hitting the apex and rolling on the throttle to keep the rear slipping just enough to point yourself out of the apex, especially helpful on a four banger, but with a big high compression ratio V twin you can down shift, do the same thing, because like with a Ducati or Buell big twin the engines have a wide 170 degree firing order and the engine pulses are so far apart makes it easy to control the rear tire, long duration hook up with short slipping times, with a inline four, pulses are very close together, smaller compression pulse, tire spools up too fast and its very hard to control rear tire spin, so the thumb brake is very practical, saves you from deadly high-sides, similar with acceleration out of the apex, with the wide V twin pulses, its pretty much natural to steer out of the corner with the throttle, once you got it down, you hardly notice your rear wheel steering, you smoothly roll the throttle to WOT, in time with getting straightened out and more upright, its heck of a ton of fun too, thrilling when you nail it perfect, seriously increases your lap times, when you reach the too pro racing you almost have to do this or you never reach top lap times. its a serious thrill when your right up beside another rides, and you both trying to reach the corner exit first, sometimes you get right up and lean on the other guy, vice versa, then your really racing, nothing like it.

Balance, speed and faith that the rubber sticks to the road and nobody had an oil leak.
