The front end didnt “wash out”. When the bike wheelie’d she held the bars almost all the way pointed left and it caused a tank slapper when the front wheel came down. Rider error.
Yes keep the wheel pointed in the direction of travel when it comes off the ground. Pointing it fully one way in a wheelie is the same mentality as the people that turn the steering wheel full lock when the front tires slip in their cars only to have the car go out of control when it catches
Was gonna say, needed to lock her arms straight, (direction of travel). I've riden a couple speed wobbles out that way. With dirt bikes in sand it's essential.
The front end DID NOT wash out! The front wheel was off the ground and she had the bars turned when the wheel came down. That's called amateur rider that has no business on a race track. But since she's a female, she's strong and vicious.
4:25 The bike was doing a wheelie, but the wheelie bars are adjusted so tight that the front tire was kept in slight contact with the track, giving her the *sensation* that she could steer w/ the handlebars… when she came to the conclusion it wasn’t working she lifted off the throttle which reconnected the front tire to the ground; unfortunately it was at full left lock 😅
Yeah that was a heavy head and body plant. She was steering left to counter the torque twist but ended up with that vicious washout.. Then poor mum was in shock and cried. I don't think mum will be keen to help fund future ventures in the sport. She is one tough cookie to walk away from that spill that young girl.
It looks like the wheelie bars were so ”tight” that it kept the front tire touching the ground, fooling her into thinking it was doing something; by the time she realized it wasn’t and closed the throttle, she was at full left lock 😂
One of my favorite things in life is putting cycle drag on and wrenching on my bikes even though some people may call it a moped but my little puch moped does 58 and that's motorcycle speeds if you ask me . I've been having a terrible day but seeing this episode reminds me every one has something it could be one thing or another. Love you all ride safe
I'm glad they showed that shot of the girl giving the thumbs-up with a smile that was a horrible accident. Let this be a lesson learned for anybody not wearing a helmet on the street at any time or on a dirt bike in the dirt. Always proper racing leathers and certified helmet.
wanted to comment on your short about the Suzuki GS1100. It was the first 4 valve bike and lead to the very underrated GS1150 then the Katana. Yep, I had one. Great straight line bike.
I'm glad you like! Please check out the full length video I did back in August on Brad Mummert's Pro Street Bike. Thanks a lot for watching. What was the most surprising clip in this video for you and why?
A lot of these mistakes could have been avoided, they’re not aware of the track rubber and glue. That huge grip can break transmissions, that box is legit.
I never used a wheelie bar on a motorcycle because the way it’s supposed to stop a wheelie is crazy!! When it touches pavement it lifts the tire off the track breaking traction!🤦🏻♂️ When the tire comes back down there’s TOO much traction causing another wheelie!!🙄 if you don’t crash you’ve already lost!! I had a seat that would allow me to move forward and back to adjust the center of gravity for max traction! Hardly ever wheelied and when I did instead of backing off the throttle I moved F/B with very little throttle movement!! Old school but effective!! This also works on street/dirt bikes.
Jack, I was watching your interview with Chris Moore over his historic 5 sec. pass. It might be quite interesting if you research the history of grudge racing and why it is what it is....that would explain some of the rules and decision making of the past and why some might be resistant to change. Peace.
Hi Ray. Thanks a lot. That sounds like that would be an interesting piece. Thanks a lot for watching. What was the most surprising clip in this video for you and why?
The bike was essentially doing a wheelie, but the wheelie bars are adjusted so tight that the front tire was kept in contact with the track, giving her the *sensation* that she could steer w/ the handlebars… when she came to the conclusion it wasn’t working she lifted off the throttle which reconnected the front tire to the ground; unfortunately it was at full left lock 😅
That small hose that the mechanic let leaked out that small ammount of nitro at 2:45, was for at least a few dollars worht of nitro. Very expensive stuff.
Freedom is dangerous my brother to secure it to live it and maintain it Ride to Live Live to Ride Ì get your worries man but you had a blast didnt ya hahaha! Hey you remember a nitro rider named John Breckenridge WFO racing hell of a good dude I knew him some years back his wife was kind of my extended family from up in Washington state he was rookie of the year in 2004 stay safe n sane bro!
One more comment, what is the price of a typical drag race motorcycle engine, one guy said it's a new/first run engine, didn't even make it past warming tires. 20k, 40k?
The 1st time I dragged was on a 99 busa I didn't realize the track bite was so sticky and almost tipped it over when my feet stuck to the ground moving up to the line. We all got to start somewhere, we all get better. Still pulled off a 10.4 on my 1st run so not so bad for a rookie.
@@BikingVikingHH it would’ve kept the wheel locked straight instead of turning when the front wheel came off the ground, so how do you figure it wouldn’t have helped? Every drag bike I’ve been around had stabilizers on them for that purpose.
A friend came across nitro burning Harley drag bikes. He said, "You know what we ought to do?" Not we. I ain't getting on one. I have rode some scary bikes and snowmobiles, but just nope.
I wonder, is there special rider gear for drag bike races on propped tracks? Seems a coating of something like teflon might make riders more likely to slide to a halt rather than tumbling around like a ragdoll. Granted, by the time they get to extreme speeds they're past the stickiest part of the strip, but even a spill at 60 mph could be real bad on prepped track.
Looked like the young girl (Bailey) had the bars turned as the bike was on the wheelie bars and when the front wheel touched down crooked, it fell over. Glad she walked away.
For me it was amateur only racing. Still, learning basic take off and at least being told how to try and recover from a mistake is paramount. That left lane......nasty. Just asking for bad things, experience or not.
That could be you..... Have to admit I am a little surprised he was so pissed.. Started riding in 93. Daily rain or shine since 2010.. I would think the added classification of drag racing would shrink that pool of riders down to almost like family members. If you are gonna race someone race them at their best. That's how it's done....
@@cycledrag Surprising? I don't know, the guy saving it while running a 4.30 was pretty cool. People have NO idea how fast that is. Jeez, anything in the even high 5's on a bike is fast, imo.
Dude seems like nobody knows who he is at all and is always in everybody's business all the time.. guess its either something about him that people dont really like too much because the moto drag people are usually pretty cool and will shoot the shit with ya even on down times or breaks..

The tat upset her balance to one side…

I just watched it like 5 times. It looked like it washed out. Idk how when it's so sticky but it slipped on something.
The mini bike walk of shame 😂😂😂🤣🤣
I think the wheelie and dump was more shameful…
Couldn't believe how fast that snowmobile went!
😂😂😂
Same here
These snowmobiles/Minibikes etc. may be good for the spectators but there an unstable handful on the track!
thats what 2 stroke engineering is all about, right now throttle response.
Smooth also.
LMAO,the bolt in the ear was Classic.
Brought back some memories with that 750 Kawasaki H-2, I was just 21 years old when they brought that out, 74 y/o now, lol.
Glad Bailey was OK. That was a nasty spill.

Duly noted. Got plans to go fast once more, but not with a full lock on a floating front end.
Best to learn from the mistakes of others.
I’m so glad Bailey had on gear and is ok. It was scary to see her go down. Praise Yah for protecting her!
Glad that girl was ok that was a nasty get off , Looked like she bounced about 2 ft off the deck wow !
She is tough! Thanks a lot for watching. What was the most surprising clip in this video for you and why?
@@cycledrag Just this one but good video !
Her skull bucket hit the track hard.
I thought I could hear her helmet crack from the impact all the way back behind the line! 😬🤕
Yeah that was a heavy head and body plant. She was steering left to counter the torque twist but ended up with that vicious washout.. Then poor mum was in shock and cried.
I don't think mum will be keen to help fund future ventures in the sport. She is one tough cookie to walk away from that spill that young girl.
this was good stuff 🤙🏻🔥
The girl with the two stroke had the front wheel turned to the left and when it came down, nasty things happened!
It looks like the wheelie bars were so ”tight” that it kept the front tire touching the ground, fooling her into thinking it was doing something; by the time she realized it wasn’t and closed the throttle, she was at full left lock 😂
1:00 that's embarrassing😂😂
I wanted to see that snowmobiles time lol
Love this channel! Lots of action!
Great edit. Thanks.

Over in the Philippines they drag race mopeds
14:23 for many years I didn't seen one like that...omg
Great video
I really enjoyed the C&B at 1:00 just typical and hilarious.
That was a fast get off. Fast and hard.
Im glad she was ok!!!
Soon to be back out there with my snowmobile powered cbr...almost finished the build
If that was a guy crashing I wonder if he would get all those hugs,and love. Hhmmmmm dont think so.
At the one minute mark I saw something I never saw before and I've been watching motorcycle drag racing since the 70s. How do you fall off the back???
Me gustaron tus vídeos hoy conocí tu canal, gracias
Dangerous track.
I'm glad they showed that shot of the girl giving the thumbs-up with a smile that was a horrible accident.

Bailey is AWESOME!
This is a different breed!!!!
I love when you put up a new video 📹 Jack! Keepem comin...lol..from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸 🤠
Thanks for watching! Thanks a lot for watching. What was the most surprising clip in this video for you and why?
On the Suzuki that spit the rod, the clutch basket may have come apart sending chunks into the crank & rod. Seen it a few times.

What kind of Oakley's are those?
Baily was like, "Aight! Imma bounce!"

Never used wheelie bars but pretends to be a expert on them. Yeah cheaks out 😂

Safety First: Riding any of those bikes the only fluids on the track would probably be from me 🤣
When they said to the dude on the Harley..man launch that sucker...they didn't mean do that dude 😏🙄🤣🤣

Prep the left lane mannn, how many bikes gotta slip n fall in the left lane before they prep it?
I'm never allow on the track, cos I keep leaking fluid. Always a problem these days.
Is that so, lol? Thanks a lot for watching. What was the most surprising clip in this video for you and why?
Don't quit Bailey, get back on quick do a couple practice runs. 2 strokes can snap and get away from you.
WOW THAT WAS MAGIC ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Thanks a lot for watching. What was the most surprising clip in this video for you and why?
That track has too much prep..they have too much sticky juice on it..
Thank God Bailey is ok. That was one hard throw to the pavement. I bet she’ll feel it later that night and the rest of the week.
She's young no she won't.

😂😂😂 1:00 could you have been further back any 😂
Heard you did the Spiderman dirty, how about a video about taking money and not delivering?!!
More balls 🎱 than me. Well done all of these drag people from me in England 🏴

@3:09 Me, the first time I rode a minibike. Thought I was badass. My brother and his friend damn near blew a gasket they were laughing so hard.

Check the body placement at 1:05… what you expecting ?
The 1st time I dragged was on a 99 busa I didn't realize the track bite was so sticky and almost tipped it over when my feet stuck to the ground moving up to the line. We all got to start somewhere, we all get better. Still pulled off a 10.4 on my 1st run so not so bad for a rookie.
If you have high blood pressure jack rabbit starts are not a good idea you may black out.
Looks like Bailey wheelied and set the front wheel down at an angle.
Yeah I seen that also, time for a stabilizer.
lol a steering stabilizer is not going to fix *landing a wheelie while at full lock* 🤦🏼♂️
@@BikingVikingHH it would’ve kept the wheel locked straight instead of turning when the front wheel came off the ground, so how do you figure it wouldn’t have helped? Every drag bike I’ve been around had stabilizers on them for that purpose.

Don't they do tech inspections on these bikes? A lot of them look like dangerous junk.
Why don't they have too be strapped down on their bikes , remember "CLICK IT"DONT RISK IT" 🤣🤣🤣😉
Looked like the young girl (Bailey) had the bars turned as the bike was on the wheelie bars and when the front wheel touched down crooked, it fell over. Glad she walked away.
0:59 Ooooh Yeeaaahhh. 😭😭😭
Ouch! Bailey went down HARD on that one! Bet she felt that one the next day.
GS cases drying up. Will have to move on to Bandits
When the snow mobiles, right lane stopped three guys running, my question is was one of those Dudes wearing Nikes?
8:04 isn't that the owner of the Las Vegas Raiders?
Is Haley Pratt from Oklahoma.....????
12:05 that dude just had a Bubbles moment
wow backwoods track- track guardrails battered and mangled by a multitude of vehicles smashing into them
Less talk, more action!
Wrecks can happen to anyone at any time. The worst ones it seems are when we aren't paying attention.
Mini bike drag racing - where corduroy pants and a suede jacket are considered “Safety gear”.
It’ll come with experience 😊
That left lane was rough
13:31 first and last…. 😂
13:03 and that's why I'm putting Carrillo rods in my 90 FZR 1000 that has a 1070 kit next rebuild and I'm doing the crank, knife edged n balanced.
9:20....that weld...
UGH! Good eye!
0:57 lol that was funny tho
Down on the farm. Farmington is the close to me.
For me it was amateur only racing. Still, learning basic take off and at least being told how to try and recover from a mistake is paramount. That left lane......nasty. Just asking for bad things, experience or not.
Bailz is going to be sore AF tomorrow hahaha Obviously she lost traction and got sideways.. Easy to do on a 2 banger and small rubber
that left lane was spooky, dont think I would have run on it...

Soooo many of these folks DO NOT belong on these bikes...smdh welcome to amateur hour🤣🤣🤣
They're out there having fun tho!!
Bailey definitely did damage to her shoulder... she believes she's fine but time will tell her different.
That one poor guy near the start 😂 he had more torque in the tires than he had grip on the handlebars that bike literally threw him off😁
Bouncig Baily
Drag Bike racers, Drag Boat racers, and Firefighters are the three nuttiest people on Earth!
Love the content...but lol sir you talk alil to much theres commentary then theres hearing your self talk, no hate just love the bikes
I wanted to see them put the mini bike up against the Harley to see which one wins.
It looks cool but it's scary got to keep the rubber side down
They hook to good on track lol
That chick got rocked...
😆😅🤣😂........I'm sorry but "bubba" getting left behind on his harley solo pass was hilarious!
