One armed Supermoto rider



Here's a video of Hungarian rider Baloo riding his KTM 560 smr with Rekluse Pro. What's so special about this you might ask? Well Baloo only has one arm and his other arm is prosthetic. Major respect for a man who keeps doing what he loves when the odds are against him.
