^ Thanks Keith, that was brilliant! (npi). Do you reckon it was about 2 x normal speed? First time i've listened to that track all the way through for over 10 years but it worked a treat (for me).
Spot on Chris - the info states that the video was at 2 x normal as they were following it on a pushbike (as per the CAA rules for drones - keeping it in sight). It would have been too slow/boring at normal speed
not sure where to post this/does it really matter? was bored today - this is not good for the neck.. managed 7.33 by fluke. https://www.clickspeedtester.com/clicks-per-second-test/
I remember seeing this cartoon when I was a youngster & it certainly made me more interested in motorcycles. It really captures the feeling of when your launching off on a performance bike thats quicker than you had prepared for...
I remember seeing KevinSwantz at Assen in the early to mid 80's, hitting lumps out of his fairing on the kerbstones. He definitely had a win or crash mentaility to his racing, that is evident in this clip.
That reminds me of something that happened when my mates and I went hedge-hopping in our teens. The guy leading the pack jumped a fairly low fence, not realising that the house on the other side of it had an underground garage, so the driveway had been excavated and turned into a ramp, meaning that there was a drop of about 15ft onto a sloped concrete surface and he broke both his ankles.
That swingarm is outrageous. Reminded of this I stumbled on whilst looking at Rotax122 stuff, a whiff of 2stroke
