Bikers Youtube thread

I often watch videos from this rider as I've always wanted an R1 not just for the looks but also for the sound. Anyway, I was watching this video, and watch at 1.20 or so, talk about backing it in :p I couldn't watch!

Nice sound - what setup were you using for that?

That side of the Furka is way too bumpy!

Cheers - Just a Drift HD with an external mic plugged in and positioned behind the comfort lining in the back of my Shoei GT-Air. It's very bumpy yeah, got to be careful committing to some corners, start bouncing wide (As you can see :D)

Cheers, I'll have to try that mic position.

I really don't much like that side of the Furka, but at least it is better going up than it is going down - for me, anyway! The other side is brilliant either way. We normally stop at the hotel near the top and turn around and just go back down. I could ride that all day (and have ridden it for half a day!)

Raw video of a furkapass blast from recent Euro Trip. Nothing spectacular, raw and unedited :p

It's all about the Furka-Susten-Grimsel loop in either direction for me personally. That makes for a really nice day trip from home.

The lazy side of Grimsel I really enjoy too, and Susten is right up there. The latter was a real highlight for our tour this year, especially following a couple of local chaps who really knew the road on one run.

Not sure how he keeps the front down, mine won't stay down at the top of 2nd or 3rd!
