Sick we are :woohoo:we are a sick breed i tell you...when i'm clipping along like that there is music in my veins and nothing can touch me.....but sitting on your right knee cap watching that i am scared shit.....them is big ole cars and they want us dead...sick i tell you...we need help...wheres my keys...i want a ride camera too......thats a great road...a lot of oncoming traffic..is it always pretty busy.......i have some great sweepers near me but seeing cars coming takes my 85--100 push down to 70.....i cant risk it anymore...older i get the more i wanna see the sun rise again...great clip..thanks for posting
that bike sounds like it had a half of the throttle left if needed....i bet it rips...peace
This is a fun part of the road, but the real good stuff starts at the other side of the valley we're dipping down into. There's less traffic in the morning but we had to wait until the roads dried off, you can still see the dark spots everywhere, and it got worse the higher up in the mountains we got - had to tone it down some.
The camera is mounted on the steering damper so yeah you get a pretty good idea of road speed :whistle: and I like that you can see the suspension move... There's still some revs left, like you I want to wake up in the morning! I hope the next clips will have more exhaust noise and less buzzing.

Great video! I get excited just seeing a highway without frost heaves/cracks...

You are welcome sir! I will post more, if it helps stave off cabin fever.

My buddies are both on modern Triumphs, a Bonneville and a Thruxton. Down on power, but modern handling. They are both quick riders, and after 2 weeks of rainy weekends took off like scalded cats as soon as the road opened up past those first cars. My buddy Mike actually likes pestering GSXRs on his Bonnie in the tight stuff :blink: He's just bought a Honda 350 to race in Ahrma at Willow this year.
Nice video Sander! The bike didn't sound like it was even a little bit taxed. I well imagine it hauls plenty well enough when you crank it up there
