Video Vintage Z1 Superbike at Homestead Dec/2012

In this, my first visit to Homestead-Miami Speedway, half of the Saturday practice day was rained out...not much time to learn a new-to-me track.
The first few laps of the Sunday final were clumsy. However, each lap in the race was faster then the previous one.
A dozen or so bikes started the race, I started on the front row and finished second,
Come with me now, turn your sound up and lets ride a fast antique Z1 Superbike.....

Well done man...that GS1000S had a bit of a scare there at 8.17. :P and a good recovery by yourself after running wide at one stage @ 13.26 then reclaiming second place. B)

That was so much fun, your bike sounds great and it looks like you have a good handle on the new track. As others have said please post more of your racing if you get a chance to film it.
