Default Two new videos (well, one and a half)

Gonna post in S&S as well, but since it's an F3 I figured you guys got dibs on the videos.
I changed my bulletcam position from the top of my helmet to down on the side fairing,
and the result is a much better angle.
Pretty cool seeing the fork moving up and down.
I did the videos this saturday (or was it friday?)

I screwed up the last ride there, because just as I approached the first turn I could swear I saw a black and white in the mirror...
Lost the entrance to the first curve, and kept a slow pace the rest of the ride because my heart was racing.

Thanks, and yes that's an old F3.
The videos are from Norway, a couple minutes from where I live.
When the snow's gone in the mountains, I'll get a video from a fantastic mountain pass also a couple minutes from here.
It's called Trollstigen, and you'd better check it out and look forward to the video.

Nice cam work. Just a couple of things...

For the type of riding it seems you're wanting to do, you're in too high of a gear most of the time. When you do downshift, try rev-matching or, "blipping the throttle." It will make downshifts much smoother, helps prevent traction loss in the rear and the most important, for me anyway, it keeps you in the powerband. By blipping the throttle you keep the RPM's high and power at the flick of a wrist.

Other than that take it easy on the gears! Haha, I know it was an accident but I had to give you flak for it. One of these days I'll get a cam and post up a video for all to pick apart!

The road looks like fun - I'm looking forward to a trip to the mountains in Colorado this summer but I don't want to have to have carbs jetterd, then re-jetted when I come home so I'm not even sure I'm gonna take it.
