Yammer Dan Posted December 8, 2009 Share #3 Posted December 8, 2009 WOW...looks like a lot of fun but I'm WAY too old to try that. I'm with Don on that one but a few years ago.... There are some roads around here I could tell you I've tried with a skateboard that I look at now and think I must have been Nuts!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squidley Posted December 8, 2009 Share #4 Posted December 8, 2009 How many times do you think speed racer crashed and burned before he got that good? Definitely not for us old farts, but it sure looked like it would be exillerating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Eagle Posted December 8, 2009 Share #5 Posted December 8, 2009 a) that looked like fun; b) looks like a cool road to ride a motorcycle on; c) seemed to me like he almost took out the first motorcycle coming up the opposite way; d) wonder what others were thinking when they saw that coming at them - or passing them - that would have spooked the heck out of me; and e) I'm with Squid - wonder how many times that person has crashed trying that. Cool video, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barend Posted December 8, 2009 Share #7 Posted December 8, 2009 Saw one similar but seems like it originated (?) in Japan. Cool video though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aharbi Posted December 8, 2009 Share #8 Posted December 8, 2009 ...wonder what others were thinking when they saw that coming at them - or passing them - that would have spooked the heck out of me... My exact thoughts when I saw it. However, riding the Alps and specifically the Dolomite mountains are on my bucket list. We have friends that live in Milan and have invited us many times to stay with them. I just have to talk my wife into flying across "the pond."

Sail accross, she'll think is sooo romantic, then after you get there spring the bike part and fly back :hihi: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubber Posted December 8, 2009 Share #10 Posted December 8, 2009 I honestly can't think of a dumber stunt that I have seen. I was just waiting for a car to come at him and roll over him. Who in there right mind thinks of this stuff. Oh Honey! Oh I thinks I'll make up this suit with wheels all over it and find the most dangerous road in the mountains to go down and see if I survive? Oh ya maybe I should have brakes on it..............NAAAAAAAWWWWWWWW. LMFAO Does this mean I am officially older than dirt? I am going to go lay down by my bowl now!

SilvrT Posted December 8, 2009 Share #11 Posted December 8, 2009 I think that would be a cool thing to do but I wouldn't want to do it on some of the mountain roads around here.... too much road patching, bumps, potholes, and snakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squeeze Posted December 21, 2009 Share #13 Posted December 21, 2009 Here's a Vid from a Buddy of mine on the same Mountain Road ...

Kirby Posted December 22, 2009 Share #14 Posted December 22, 2009 You know, I thought I'd like to have one of those new Vmaxes. But if they all sound like that, nope. That thing sounds like it's dragging a #3 washtub with 6 or eight bricks in it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeeze Posted December 22, 2009 Share #15 Posted December 22, 2009 I can assure you, the Sound on the Video is not what you hear on this Bike. I don't know where he had the Mic placed, but mine has a singing Sound coming from the upper Valve Train at lower RpM and it really screams at mid and high Rev, which he never approached in the Vid. You should also keep in Mind, we have pretty restricting Noise Laws over here. You'll hear that next Year, because US EPA Rules from 2010 on are nearly a blue Print from european Regulations.

Squeeze Posted December 22, 2009 Share #18 Posted December 22, 2009 Nice little Sunday afternoon drive!! My Jardines would sound sweet.... Yes Dan, except that Scene at 6:07 where he almost highsided the Bike while going out of the tight left Hander. That's just the Torque the Motor provides....

BOO Posted December 28, 2009 Author Share #19 Posted December 28, 2009 Here's a Vid from a Buddy of mine on the same Mountain Road ... Scary movie.... It always seems to be less scary for me to just ride but then again maybe I'm not traveling as fast as they are. Got to love that V4, great sounding engine. Beautiful views.
