I am 80 years old, I flat tracked on the west coast of the USA in 1970's...favorite bike was a 500cc triumph. It changed my life, I remain delighted to this day, 50 years later. I live off shore now in a tiny Mayan village south of the US border with 3 beautiful women who take good care of me as I prepare to haul arse into the great beyond. Somehow i think the start line at full throttle stays with you as you walk into a room ...a non ordinary man living in a non ordinary reality as Carlos C put it... willingly facing death as you slide sideways into a turn... You either do it and do it hard or face ruthless consequences. Hats off in humility to those on the Isle of Mann, and road race tracks and class A nitro methane burning speedway riders especially. These are transcendent experiences, full throttle experiences, non timid experiences, brought to earth.... not only change the man but change the vibe and that changes the universe.
How is there only 2 likes. Well said, sounds like you've lived, my friend. When your time comes, I hope it's peaceful and you have a speedy journey to the other side.
Everybody knows that you haven’t lived until you high side but don’t remember it happening and wake up to people standing over you, and for a moment you don’t know where you are. These are the kind of memories that are fun, but will never compare to mammaries, especially three pairs!. Have fun with those three girls! We’ll keep the two wheels spinning for you here in SoCal until you return.
Ever since way back when Harley whined and cried and complained until the AMA forced Honda to run restrictors so they could not win against Harley....ever since that AND the HUGE tarrif I had to pay on SPORTBIKE (that Harley did not even make) ever since those two things I HATE Harley with a passion and just LOVE seeing ANY other manufacturer beat them at the only racing they haveany success with
Thank you for a splendid video. A lamp was buried in a front athlete's number plate with a video of FB.MONDIAL FLATTRACK. I want that athlete's number plate. Where is it available if I contact you? Please tell me.
Twin cylinder under 900ccs is what are used...surprised many of these even exist being they do not fit criteria to race or are way underpowered. Someone should use the old 500cc yamaha twin cylinder two stroke and build a flat tracker kt would flyyyy! Lol
Erroneous title for this video....Flat Trackers are RACING motorcycles...."tracker" street bikes are NOT racers they only vaguely resemble flat track bikes should be titled "10 Tracker style motorcycles and a couple of real track bikes
@@automotiveterritory Sorry but I find the cadence of the voice extremely irritating. It doesn't listen pleasantly. Detracts from the content of the video in my opinion. Nevertheless, thanks for posting.
@@automotiveterritory How far into the future ? On the track, plug in sockets will be available. Elsewhere ? A potential problem. The sound of a 650 gas burner, absent ! The tuner is out of a job ! Hummmm…boring ! Thanks for your video’s.

Long live speedway racing. Turn right, go like hell!
Turn right to go left! Timeless truth taught to me by Fabulous Hudson Hornet, lol
Some of those electric bikes look like a microwave oven with wheels.
Yeah not a fan.
Worse than that
F.b Mondial flat track looks sick in red and white
It does. Is it your favorite option in the class?

LOL. Some pure fury over here. Harley was in the wrong
It’s called American flat track we don’t sell enough rice for Honda to make horsepower 😂
Awesome. Flat trackers look cool!
Two full blown race bikes, the rest street trackers. Wish there was more interest in building race bikes like there is in street trackers.
Not enough racers to sell them out, therefore we are stuck with street trackers
Harley Davidson:
The best-selling tshirt company of all time 😂
Y'all did a great job guys great job
Thanks, which of these is your favorite?
Super bro
Thanks!
Reprogram that Russian accent robot narrator.
Go Russia 🇷🇺
Sorprised with many excellent bikes!
Glad you liked it. Any favorites?
@@automotiveterritory the blatanant , the foggy and the indian scout.
Thanks
Fantic cabellero flat tracker
Is it your top pick in this class?
Love them. I want one of each. Lol
FANTIC 🔝
Great choice!
I’m soon gonna be 13 and I’m building a Harley 125 single to race
It is an athlete's number plate not a number plate. There is no lamp in the Japanese motorcycle shop.
No Kawasaki 650 twin. Thing was dominating until Indian bought the series.
All those bikes and no sound ? ? ?
Thank you for a splendid video.
A lamp was buried in a front athlete's number plate with a video of FB.MONDIAL FLATTRACK. I want that athlete's number plate. Where is it available if I contact you? Please tell me.
How about the bikes that don't exist?
Good to know you also have a good taste in bikes
Appreciate the kind words. How did you like the lineup?
Good,any way be seeing you
so, where is the FTR 1200 😎
750s dumbass HD stop building the 1200 anyway few years ago because nobody cared
Twin cylinder under 900ccs is what are used...surprised many of these even exist being they do not fit criteria to race or are way underpowered. Someone should use the old 500cc yamaha twin cylinder two stroke and build a flat tracker kt would flyyyy! Lol
It was a tx500 i believe stock 55hp but with modern technology it could easily ne 110 hp
Cool bikes but it would be better to hear the bikes than your voice !
Erroneous title for this video....Flat Trackers are RACING motorcycles...."tracker" street bikes are NOT racers they only vaguely resemble flat track bikes should be titled "10 Tracker style motorcycles and a couple of real track bikes
Fair point. Thanks for the suggestion 🙂
Oval track Moto
Get those electric bikes outta here. They don’t compare to the visceral ride on a V Twin !!!
First actually learn about flat track racing before waisting everyone's time with a Trending News video 👎
Nice bikes but why this voice???
What do you mean by 'this voice'?
@@automotiveterritory Sorry but I find the cadence of the voice extremely irritating. It doesn't listen pleasantly. Detracts from the content of the video in my opinion.
Nevertheless, thanks for posting.
Are you a fan of the flat tracker motorcycle style and which of these production and custom models did you like the most?
Only the XG750 & FTR 750 are actual race units
EV crap and no Rotax? Clearly a fluff piece from someone with "no knowledge" of flat track racing.
Electric models are stale 👎🏼 boring .
There are many manufacturers that consider EVs to be the future.
@@automotiveterritory How far into the future ? On the track, plug in sockets will be available. Elsewhere ? A potential problem. The sound of a 650 gas burner, absent ! The tuner is out of a job ! Hummmm…boring ! Thanks for your video’s.
Do you think there is at least one reason why EVs may take off and become a better alternative to modern vehicles?
