I'd almost bet she could lol. That Kawi ZRX is 500 lb's dry weight. I'm definately impressed.

Awesome.  1st time I've ever seen crash bars on a ZRX.  And what's with the green rear wheel?

They should have had an articulated man lift there, to film it from overhead.  That would have been a great view where the bike is in relation to the cones and the course as a whole.

Very impressive.  This lady can do it on a bagger and is all of 90 lbs soaking wet.

Very impressive indeed!  I looked at it closely several times and I could not see that she used her clutch at all.  She ran the entire course with the clutch fully engaged.  I don't think I could control the big twin engine in my bikes well enough at low speed without keeping the clutch in the friction zone at times. And I know I am not nearly talented enough to run such a course let along at those speeds.  She is good.

I watched again after you mentioned it Jerry and I looks like even at the end when she comes to a stop that she didn't engage the clutch!  :nixweiss:

A company called EFM makes something they market as an "auto clutch" (I think that's right).  A centrifugal system that gets tighter as the engine winds up and releases as the engine slows down.  With it you don't have to use the clutch lever.  Perhaps that's what she has?

It's advertised for its ease of use and very light clutch pull requirements for your left hand.  Have always wanted to try one but never had the opportunity.

Definitely good and notice the leather/body armor.  Appears as tho she's using the front brake quite a bit which is a feat in itself on that course.  :) spyder
