I think we are slightly better riders than that. It's a back alley so it's all fenced. The closest I can was goosing the throttle on the mossy, muddy center part of the road and the back end broke sideways. I corrected nicely (i.e. bike remained upright) but I thought something had come loose, mostly because I haven't fully tightened everything up.
Apparently the low rumble of the Norton was less offensive than the one time I whipped the Pursang (nominal exhaust) down the alley a few times and there may or may not have been a constable called...
