Guy Martins wall of death live.... Predictions?

I was surprised they didn't have to modify the fuel / oil pumps? Wouldn't it cut out with all the fuel being on the side of the tank?

All the fuel would be at the bottom of the tank still due to the G force (the same thing that makes it possible to ride on a vertical wall in the first place).

 

True but would there be enough G force as soon as he gets onto the wall? I think guy just wanted an excuse to build another bike í ½í±í ¼í¿»

 

Yes, because during the transitional period as he's 'climbing' onto the wall, the bike wouldn't be leant as far over. If the bike was leant that far over (i.e. getting towards horizontal) and he wasn't generating enough g force to keep the fuel at the bottom of the tank, he also wouldn't be generating enough g force to stay on the wall.
