So who were you following over viniger hill, only saw a glimpse of a bike now and then :oi-grr:
Didnt realise the tiger would be so agile, Al sure has tamed the beast
I saw a glimpse of you guys now and then, mainly when the cars slowed you down

[yod]

he's fekkin goneburger when he wants to :laugh:

[Horse]

Nice videos. For a new bike he seems to be getting the hang of that tiger. :)

Good music too. Well, The Offspring is a bit meh IMO, but Shakespear's Sister was a pleasant surprise. Given the typical CMOS protection thing going on, maybe you should have used "Black Hole Sun" for the first half. :)

[cowboyz]

I like offspring!

[Meanie]

I like offspring!
I normaly do but now and then they piss me off so i ground the little buggers

[cowboyz]

[sinfull]

86 don't half like that road aye lol did'nt realise you had cut the cylinder off already Cowboyz

[86GSXR]

Ooooh yes, very nice :yes: Gee, watching that road is almost as good as riding it. Thanks for taking out that 'will I, won't I' overtake, that must have been what motivated the boyracer. He was a decent lad tho eh!

[Bend-it]

Watching bike vids always makes me wish I was out there instead on in front of my PC... Bahh!

[Monobrow]

I do like the Desert Road. I hear lots of people say they don't like it but I do :yes:

[SPman]

Homesick for some decent roads again.....................

Damn your eyes!

I thought you were trying to 1up the Yod with a move like that.

I love the desert road. If it wasnt SH1 it would be covered in bikes every weekend.

Is that that guy who had a farm?

the mountain in the background for one part is fucking mint too.

I generally dont edit much these days. Basically cause I am really really lazy.
I thought I better get Meanie on video while he wasnt on the concours cause I dont have a wide angle lens.

Be good to have a look at that. Some of their seat pic look awesome and I'd thought of getting mine done (before the Sargent). Then I saw this one in the flesh and it's ruined the look of the bike.

[Monamie]

Eeiieeeiioooo!!! With fries thanks:whistle:
It is done and on its way back to me...:2thumbsup:love:

And on this farm she had a new bike......you can sing the rest:innocent::cool:

[cowboyz]

with a green bling here
and a green bling there
here a green there a green everywhere a green green.........

[Monamie]

and a green bling there
here a green there a green everywhere a green green.........

:no::no:Green things here there and everywhere on the farm...well.. how can I put it......they are generally by-products of metabolism if you know what I mean:innocent:

I was thinking more of...a big grin here (me), and a big grin there (Monie), here a grin (86GSXR), there a grin (Rottiguy), everywhere a grin (Horse), grin (Chanceyy)......(and Yod and all the others grinning because of new bikes)

Oh help someone...Cowboyz was singing:shutup::laugh::jerry:

[yod]

err...riiiight....

[banditrider]

Nice vids, must have a looksee at your camera one day...

[cowboyz]

well truth be known, its not actually my camera. It is dogs camera. Quite good though. Need a better place to mount it so it doesnt jump round so much

[banditrider]

A Concours?

[ynot slow]

What about helmet cam like Joe Walshe on Eagles dvd in Melbourne.

A couple of pieces of say 50-75mm foam(lounge suite type)from upholsterer,each side of camera and strapped to pac rac maybe.Might stop shake/vibrations.

[cowboyz]

dont like the idea of helmet cams. Then you'll gte to see all the things I look at rather than whats in front of me.

The biggest problem with mounting this camera is the size of it. Its so damn small its difficult to mount without using the proper mount for it which itself is a bit of a pain to use. Will get a brain wave one day and work it out.

[Meanie]

I thought I better get Meanie on video while he wasnt on the concours cause I dont have a wide angle lens.

Just as well i didnt have the panniers on the VFR then aye, it measures wider than the concours

[Meanie]

That dosnt do much for the look of the bike alright
They did such a good job of Monies seat, i,m gonna send my original Concours seat in to be done, if its any better ill sell my Gel seat

Yep helmet could be dangerous when near topless women walk past,the neck can only move so fast before crack.

How about the camera mounted inside hollowed out polystyrene or similar?

[banditrider]

if its any better ill sell my Gel seat

Who too?

Thought that might get your attention, took you long enough, of course Ill give you a call first if i decide to sell the gell seat.

[cowboyz]

Isnt your gel seat for the RED concours though? Not sure if it will fit the silver ones?

[banditrider]

Cheers, what do you think of it?

I'm sure I could make it fit.

[Meanie]

.

Better than the original, especialy when your planted on it for a long time, but thought i might try the rider option to see what i prefer
Apparently when you are on the seat for a long time you tend to push the air out of the foam which is when they become uncomfortable, so the idea is to use a firmer foam. thats why the more comfy seats feel harder.........aparantly

*waits for comment about meanie's arse size*

[cowboyz]

:jerry: .........

[Horse]

*waits for comment about meanie's arse size*

So is that why he rides a Concours - the bike's huge arse makes his look smaller?

:D

Of course, a smarter man than I wouldn't be making these jokes knowing how badly they're going to backfire in about 2 days time, assuming I make it to the BBQ as planned....

we demand pics!!

Being naive here, where do you mount it. I see Ebay selling camera mounts as tank cap mounts.

It being the camera not anyting else you choose to mount.

[cowboyz]

it is mounted on a clip that sits on the mirror. pretty average really but does the job

[KiwiKat]

I found an interesting camera solution on the internet, but link is faulty. I will try to reload.

[ynot slow]

Pics/vids are only as good as the camera,the ones you've taken are clear compared to some,unless you have access to the professional cameras like tv studios use.The size of those cams you'd need to fix em to a concours.

Nice. The camera cowboyz is using is a lot smaller and is round so probably not suited to that mount, good idea though

[Monie]
