Short first-time-video-clip on a trip with my Z1000 A1

Here´s my first video clip, filmed in may this year    - i just was able to upload it on YT
( Camera is mounted on the left side of the handlebar, and don´t be surprized: It an absolute first time amateur made movie, hehehe,.. i was proud enough, an novize like me...!)

The clip just shows a black screen saying the “Video is Private”.  I think you need to check your settings.

Later, Doug

Yes, it´s planned to show after 19.45 local GMT+2     , after that time, everybody can watch it at YT (Bear with me, guys—I'm an absolute beginner when it comes to things like this. )

Now you can watch it!  

Look at You go Joe!! A YouTube sensation, can almost smell the Sauerbraten smell wafting from all those kitchens along the way. At least your Country drives on the "correct" side of the road haha.

 there is a whole other debate - Lol

Yeah, Clay, I finally got around to making a YouTube video—I hadn't realized just how easy it is to upload and post one... it probably won't be the last time, either (and I deliberately avoided using a helmet-cam angle pointed at the speedometer; otherwise, someone might try to use it against me ...(( and i hadn´t find a other place to fix the camera   ))

By the way, I just rode that exact same route again—it was completely empty... and we’ve been having absolutely incredible summer weather here for the past week, with temps hitting 40°C—hehehe—exactly the kind of weather for me, since I love the sun!!!! Life itself can be soooo well !!!   

Thanks for sharing. 

Thanks for taking us along, Joe!  That route is a great ride.
Your film reminds me a little of an old Honda produced film promoting their (then new) Interceptor. They strapped a camera to the tank and we were able to go along with Joey Dunlop for one lap of the Isle of Man circuit at race speed.  My nephew, his dad, and I still watch it once in a while.  The title is ,"V four victory".

Hi Scotty, I'm glad you liked my video. That was our racetrack back in my younger days. We burned through quite a few tanks of fuel there; it was still very rural back then—after 8 p.m., there was absolutely no traffic on those roads... It’s a bit different these days: you have to get lucky to catch it as empty as it looks in the clip...

Ah, yeah—the legendary Joey Dunlop, a hero of our motorcycling days; he was truly an outstanding rider. I know the "V for Victory" movie, too... Unfortunately, I never managed to make it to the Isle of Man TT myself; it was too expensive for me even back then... I always preferred investing the money in my bikes instead.
