Realisation...
UPDATE: Sorry for lack of replies. I've had a catastrohpic computer breakdown.
Answers to some of the comments.
1. Speed, dunno. Fast enough. My speedo isn't calibrated. About 40-50mph.
2. No, I don't use a throttle lock, just get up and back down. It's very stable right down to 20mph or so.
3. The Guzzi is stable is a straight line, the engine orientation makes no difference.
4. Those aren't winter trees. This photo was taken by Ben last Thursday evening.

Great skill! I tried this whilst riding/training with the Met Police at Hendon once for an article, but bottled out (I was on a BMW Rt rather than on my Guzzi though..)

Throttle-lock or not?

I am extremely impressed! Especially on a Guzzi with it's washing machine power pulses!
Damn you Gary! I'm going to have to try this now and I'll probably die!!!
oh lordy - you mave started something !
According to the background that's winter trees. Which means you did this ages ago and didn't tell any of us about it. You crafty dog! Awesome, Christ-like style.

Gary - I like the "don't" rather than "didn't" use a throttle stop.... allowing us to assume that this is regular riding style, or at the very least, something you've been doing since you could walk, and have absolutely no intention of stopping......
