Curves, Canyons and Crashes

Santa Clarita Canyons Roads

Notice: No FJR's were harmed in the making of this video. We did manage to send a cherry ZRX1100 festooned in carbon fiber farkles in for some serious reconstructive cosmetic surgery, though...

Always enjoy those....what type of camera do you use. I was looking at the JVC sportscam with the detachable lens. Any recommendations? I've got plenty of time to sit here and surf for cameras since we are friggin SNOWED IN AGAIN!!!!!!

Canon Elura 80 with separate bullet cam. Look at Samsung. They have a complete kit at a real good price. Sport Cam or some such thing they call it. These digi cams (tape, disc or HD types) don't like the vibes, so having the camera in your tank bag being fed the images from the bullet cam kills all the vibes.

I went for ride with about 40 of my mates. I rode ahead of them so I could get some pickies when they ventured around the corner. I was there or about 10 minutes before they arrived...it was beautiful and so quiet...

Well, so much for entering the apex late...

On my video of this ride i used a Canon z300, Yes the high revs vibration will cause tapes to skip or fludder. Try taping with your speed set on SP instead of LP. It will cut down time of tape i get abit over 60minuts on each 90 minut tape. Running slower tape will cut down on alot of fludder. i have notice :boss:

C'mon Mick, post up those piccies! By the way, that bike is way too clean... Gay clean© [SIZE=8pt](2006 by radmanisms, inc.)[/SIZE], in fact!

Yeah, but give him props for preparation - check out the plate under the sidestand.

Enjoyed the vid TW... getting a little artsy with our special effects aren't we? Good angle from the slider.

The part where Dan goes down... classic case of what happens getting on the binders in a turn. But, he may have rear-ended the bike in front of him otherwise.

Nice TWN, nice.

btw - do you EVER work?

 

[donaldb]

COOL!

 

[tstaff]

Thanks for the flick TWN, makes me ill sitting here in Ohio.

Hope your buddies alright other that pride damage, good job not target fixating & following him off, can't tell you how many time i've watched guys do that on the race track.

Nice TWN, nice.btw - do you EVER work?

Hell, no. Why do you think I have a wife?

Good video, these things are fun.. Since no riding for me - not only is it still chilly, but I manged to tumble down the steps the week before last and shatter my tib/fib at the bottom.

My riding season is postponed until the beginning of May at least..

Yep that would sucked since it was me in front of him

Sweet vid...major bummer on the crash...those sport bikes just can't hang with the FJRs and we have proof!

Last Satruday, I saw a Ducati run off the road at 65. The rider hit sand on a straight away, couldn't get back on the road. He was okay, but something about his bike cartwheeling into trees really screwed it up.

He was perfectly okay other than road rash on his legs (wore jeans).

No fun to see bikes go down is it? No.
