    ART, 20 April

    Couple of vids of me on both my SV650 and Outforaduck's Triumph Daytona 675 (I want one!!) Currently in Group 3 at Pukekohe and will be in G2 at Hamptons as I have never done that track before.

    Click me to see me.
    Rest in peace Tony - you will be missed.

    " had the front wheel lifting up down the back straight at 230km/h"
    Didn't know that 675 Triumphs had the 200+ RWHP that would be required to do that.....

    Was the camera on your bike both times, or were you in the picture? Looked like fun either way.

    It was on Doc Martin's bike VTR1000, I was the one in the picture on 2 different bikes.

    and Malcy25 - was not any decent sized wheelie, pretty sure it was miniature, but unfortunately don't get to feel that on the SV haha.

    Having a 2011 Daytona, and having ridden down the back straight at 230 - 245km, I can safely say you can not lift the front wheel...

    So having the ability to turn the handlebars to the left and right with out moving from my path, you would still say that the front was planted?
