My humble collection
Very nice humble collection
-
Yesterday I was gifted with a fantastic stormy sunset over the salt lake flats as I neared Uyuni for the night. Made my bike look prettier than usual.
-
@motojobobo Nice shot,but next time try getting down low,even sit on the ground to shoot the bike. Just a different perspective,and how they shoot bikes in the MC magazines.
-
@motojobobo Love this picture. Sometimes it’s the simple things like a beautiful sunset that makes riding a motorcycle so special. Thanks for sharing!
-
@Denman-John Completely agree as well as some of the smells that you can experience such as the smell of a fresh cut field or the air after a rain.
-
@Bo-Maschke Nice ironhead brother!

My ‘95 916. I bought it new.
(Wearing an IH shirt and the trusty 634s, I might add.
)

@sffranky My dream bike since i was a child...
One day I will have one in my garage
-
@sffranky damn that is beautiful
-
@gouki74 ever since the day I bought it, the sport bike stall in my stable had been filled.
-
@louisbosco Thank you, Sir.
-
@sffranky Looking good, its awesome that you've had that from new. Bet its worth more now than you paid for it?

@Denman-John will try to do a video of one full lap once I get my bike back and figure out the lap data from there. Will probably also pick the best
Full lap video of the final lap I was doing. Lap time and telemetry from the bike below..

@louisbosco What a f'n rockstar!! Two things: around 35 seconds you do a head shake like you weren't happy with something. What was it?
Around 2:25 you're coming out of a turn and it looks like you're starting a speed wobble. Was that just the camera or did you come out of the corner too hard?
-
refer to map below.
0:35 was a double hairpin, turns 1 and 2. it's hard to nail the apex entry and exit on the second. had a late apex in mind but felt I had gone in too early and just wasn't happy.
2:25 on the exit of 14, was the front lifting. if you look at the telemetry, that was the 1 degree of yaw.
14 is also a tricky corner that requires you to go deep and turn for a late apex out.fwiw, all electronic reins were set at 2. low but not the lowest. including electronic brake, wheelie, traction control etc..

Heading up to Sepang International Circuit this weekend with Ducati Singapore. This will be my first track day on a F1, MotoGP and Grade 1 circuit. Boy am I'm excited!! Feels surreal!
-
@louisbosco Thank you for posting that. Not sure what superlative to use to convey how much I enjoyed that.
-
@louisbosco fuck yeah! That hurts my internal gyroscope/gimbal. Looks super fun tho!
-
@louisbosco So I’ve been thinking about the 2:25 minute mark (exit 14) quite a bit and wondering what you did/or should do to keep from losing control.
Do you:
- Stay in it and ride it out
- Slip the clutch and slightly roll off the throttle to bring the front end back down
- Slightly drag the rear brake to bring the front end down
- Let the electronics figure it out and enjoy the ride.
I would have been seriously sweating bullets at those speeds and am impressed you rode it out. I really don’t think I could have and have no clue what I would or should be doing in that situation.
