I dont remember my SV sounding like that... Guess im used to the 60*V now.

Anyway enjoy it just shows that a SV650 isnt slow and can be easy to get the knee down on. :cool: Though anyone should be able to if they have a road like that. :smt076

Re: Pretty cool SV vid...
 

Is it just me or are they riding weird:confused:

Re: Pretty cool SV vid...
 

That was nearly painful to watch... the guy in front on the thou ... Stop f###ing about hanging off and just go round the corner!

Re: Pretty cool SV vid...
 

Aye I agree with that... :( I suppose I should link a better one lol

Just that was the only SV one. Sigh.

Re: Pretty cool SV vid...
 

Yeah, I was thinking how the guy with the camera was about 5 times as fast as the guy on the thou.

Re: Pretty cool SV vid...
 

Pretty poor riding if you ask me, was wobbly and jerky all over the place, not smooth at all.

Re: Pretty cool SV vid...
 

Well----To come to the riders defence----That was an extremely technical and long bit of road.Unless your name happens to be Shakey or something similar I reckon it would take lots and lots of practice to get good there.

Re: Pretty cool SV vid...
 

Is there anywhere in the UK like that I wonder?

I'd love to go there (assuming it wasn't full of traffic!!!!)

Re: Pretty cool SV vid...
 

There are a few other video's of people going over there and most of them you can tell dont know the road that well as they are all a little like that guy. The (initial) camera bike is the rider that I was refering to, he does seem to have a clue. :)

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

You can shift a bit and be smooth without knowing the road...

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Aye this is true...

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Oh and blue the closest road I been on over here to that is the cat and fiddle. :cool:

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

That looks horrid. Give me fast sweepers anyday.

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

+1, i thought i was doing quite well on the AR this year, I didnt know those roads

Mind you, I had 20 other people on front of me to gauge the right line around the cornere based on what they were doing

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Like seggons north wales video? :-P

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Personally I prefer those type of roads, slow tight corners where you are constantly cornering. I prefer that to cornering at high speed.

There is a road very near me that is probably even twistier than that one. The road up to Glen Clova. You go up one route and back down another. Only downside is that it is a bit narrow and lots of suicidal bunnies and sheep.
Another brilliant road like that is the A702 near Dumfries. Very twisty bits and awesome views

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Pretty much any of the roads on the glencoe massacre rideout... that loop round the lake was very entertaining.

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Exactly

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

I wish I had those as my local twisties!! and the sun! :D

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

That guy in front needs to learn to ride his SV1000!

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Reminds me of someone lol

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Lol - you referring to this?

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Nope second comment is about someone else entirely.

That NW vid was about following other people lines, in that vid there were about 6 or 7 bikes all taking very odd lines around corners and being very wierd for no apparent reason, basically looking like a set of lemmings. (Seggons did the Ecosse trip and it was a completely different story there.)

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Ah...

[dumb]
So what did you mean?
[/dumb]

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Of the short bit I watched, he looked like he was riding quite erraticly and not very smooth at all

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

The second comment means that "he needs to learn to ride his SV1000" reminds me of someone.

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Clear as mud ;) will let you keep that person's identity to yourself then :p

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Thankyou for allowing me the privelage.

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

:smt046 Just this once, mind... :p

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Cant have been me then... Thankfully.

Dont think im too bad. :rolleyes:

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Lol... welll I've a rough idea what people think of parts of my riding

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Indeed. A little mad is my opinion. You really should take less risks mate! When you get unrestricted I think you'll settle down, I did... Something to do with you know its easy to overtake so your more willing to wait I guess. :D

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

You'd be suprised, I'm much less aggressive with the overtaking when alone, I get a little frustrated on rideouts when people are hanging around for no particular reason.

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Hey man I wasnt hanging around... I was waiting for a spot where I could see more than 10 meters, the straight after the corner you over took me on I over took... then got held up by a car in the next set of corners cos I didnt have time to get past with you :mad:


Not to worry though. :)

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

That wasn't a dig at you. I can't remember exactly, but it looked like you were being polite to bike(s) in front. Politeness isn't a strong point of mine lol.

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

#nods#

He still has kidneys too ;)

#nods# very true :-P

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Ah dont worry, I didnt take it as a dig at me... I was just explaining is all. :)

Your right though, I didnt want to cut Dizzy up (who was in front) as she was/is a little nervous since the incident she had. Im too nice. :p

Re: Pretty cool SV vid.
 

Ahhh that'll be that etiquette thing people keep trying to explain to me... :-P
