A really poor man's version of Ruben Xaus on the Hypermotard video!

Not the bike! The quality of the video/location/riding skills. Man, when Xaus had the tail sliding out, spinning smoke while he gives the thumbs up to the camera...

Xaus's pics and vids are from a big $$ press intro with professional photographers all over the circuit. This is an amateur vid from a kart track. As for riding skills, this guy on the SXV has plenty. He's using the correct SM racing line to show the fast way through that section. Xaus was showing off for the cameras. Apples and oranges.

Exactly! That's why it's the poor man's version. Sure this dood has skills, but if you think he has any on WSB rider Xaus ya gotta be dreamin'.
This is a cool amateur video. Not knockin' that.

+1
That guy is
fast
through what looks like a pretty technical section of track.
Those Aprilias are cool looking and they sound so delicious. You don't see many around here so I don't have any good pictures of the few that race the NW.

Thanks for your insights. I'll edit that part of my post where I went into that long discussion about this guy in the video being a better rider than Xaus.

Looking at this guy's leathers, I do believe that's the MotoCzyz guy.
Oh, and the guy in the video can RIDE. That's a badass video. I'd love to be able to ride my WRX like that.
