If you haven’t been following the Dirtbike vs Streetbike saga, then you have been missing out. This is a video series that finds these two machines battling it out on surfaces that are typically most at home for the dirtbike, but with a twist. Both bikes are beasts, but the streetbike clearly has TONS more power than the dirtbike but at the price of tons more weight as well. It also doesn’t have suspension that is intended to most of what is being asked of it. Yes the street bike has tires that help it, in the form of giant knobby spiked things that look awesome on the back of this beast and that help it haul ass on the ice. But the snow is another story. The dirt yet another one. And there’s more. Lots more.
We’re pretty sure that everyone involved has to have fun doing these videos, but we’re also pretty sure that there are some repairs happening from time to time as well since there is no way this was all done in one take. The scenery is cool, the speed is awesome, and the stunts make it fun to watch even if some of them have you scratching your head in wonder at what they are actually doing.
Watch and see if you agree.
