ST1300 run
« on: January 15, 2013, 08:19:40 PM »
The guys posted it at 4x speed, which is fine- keeps it interesting.  You can skip forward a bit in the highway segment.  Apparently his camera was mounted on a tripod on the top box.  Must have been a strong mount, as it's quite high but doesn't vibrate even at highway speeds.


High Speed ST1300 ride





The first few turns as he leaves the servo are really scary because I didn't realise it was in the US at the beginning.

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Wow! Thanks for posting Bill. If that was a Candy ST - he wouldn't have had to speed it up!          :nahnah


I like those extraneous rear view/three quarter view mirrors too. I can't see past my kit when packed for touring with the OEMs.


Nice, smooth vid.


Cheers, Diesel

Same for riding on the footpath.

As for fueling the bike, I would have got my rear end kicked for allowing that to happen even if it was pay at the pump.

Didn't you know that all rules can be broken in order to keep your bike clean?  How else was he to park in the garage?  Drive through the muddy puddle?

I too noticed the refuelling. No way am I going to sit there, and allow the blow back to land in my lap. Its also very hard to run away should a fire start.
