Just stumbled across this so I figured I'd put it up here. Not sure exactly how to put it on the board so I'll just post the link. It's just some advise from Rossi about riding, might help some of us.

Rossi on a 600? :'( :'( They should've turned him loose w/ an R1. I love hearing that crossplane at full song!!
Nice find! That was more entertaining than I initially thought it would be.

You're so right. The 09's just sound downright mean.
Very helpful for the novice track rider.
Very helpful video, I liked the parts on front and rear braking
The man makes it look easy doesn't he? Thanks for that link...I forwarded it to all of my moto riding buddies.
I would have liked to see something about using the rear brake in a "normal" fashion, other than to swing the rear out (that never fails to impress the living crap out of me).
I don't think I'll ever have the stones to slide the back tire.
Good stuff.
Dolph :)
Cool vid. Thanks for sharing.
