indianagenius Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Yeah, I know my shifting is poor...I'm working on it. Anyway, this is the nicest road I have close-by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are twisty roads in south Indiana? -- Interesting video of being a backseat driver. --- (Um.... you said it... but your shifting isnt poor - its gawd awful.) Get smooth.... and buy Nick Ienatch's book.... https://www.amazon.com/Sport-Riding-Techniques-Develop-Confidence/dp/1893618072?ie=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GoPro camera was mounted via a 1/4"-20 bolt that is placed through a hole drilled in the left passenger grab-rail. I used the tripod mount that accepts a 1/4"-20 bolt. It works quite well. You can aim the camera to the front, side, back, etc.. I no longer have pillion pegs, so the grab rails have no function other than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer zupatun Posted June 4, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted June 4, 2016 Nice shots. If you want to work on your "shifting" plus everything else AND have tons of fun riding without as much trial and error take a class at a track... http://www.midohio.com/School/Courses/Motorcycles/Performance-Track-Riding Cheers, Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavmac Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 I'd be curious to see the RPM's from this ride. It sounds a like a lot of shifting at low rpm's. I suppose if this was just a lazy cruise around town, you wouldn't really be ripping up to redline. Anyone else thinking the same thing, or is it just me?

Anyone else thinking the same thing, or is it just me? This was a pretty casual ride and was not meant to be "aggressive" whatsoever. I'm riding on public streets, not a closed course. RPM's were between 4000-7,000 RPM. I'm easy on my VFR and see no need to run her up to redline/11,500 RPM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
