how low can you go

[pyrocam]

Ok so how come I can see Two Smokers short video ok... and not Pyrocam's?
What the heck is the difference??????



Yep I tried installing that programme and it kinda stuffed up a few things so I uninstalled it.

codecs crashe. codecs.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_codec

they are like drivers but for files instead of peices of hardware. different people prefer different codec's, Two Smoker is using a MJPG codec (Motion JPEG including Huffman Tables) which you probably got when you installed that defilerpak thing I got you to install, although I could be wrong it could be a much simpler codec than that. I like divx because you can get a large about of video into a small space with little quality loss and I can control the amount of compression quite easily.
Also divx is one of the more common codecs about so _most_ people who download video should already have it downloaded.



Ok now that thats done.

Nice Video 2 Smoker thats pretty low. Ill have to find a corner to practice on methinks.

I finally managed to get my knee (s) down at taupo on thursday First on the gixxer and then even on LB's TL too!I even scraped my toe slider on the TL with my toes on the pegs.Wore heaps off my right slider and heaps off the left knee of my leathers Great fun.By the end of the day I was sliding on every corner except the left flick between the two rights.
I guess you can get a lot lower than you think....

I was touching down my toe sliders on the TL on the rimitakas on saturday...man it was a great day for a ride!!! warm...traffic wasn't to bad...alot of bikers out...kept me busy for a few hours...

If the peg digs in it does grip, and highside you off, or if your lucky lowside you....

Fuck yeah, the VFR is dodge for that, it has massive chunks taken out of the foot pegs. Gives me the shits

[James Deuce]

You see I'm not fussed that you ride slower than me And I'm on a shitty 400

Good on ya NC...feels good the first few times don't it...I remember way back when I first got a touch down...gave me a fright at first...after a few more times felt natural....
After a while you'll probally get a toe slider down...now thats a feeling....you know then your bike hasn't got much more lean in it...or go buy rearsets!!!!

Which reminds me...need some more sliders for leathers....!!

Do you ide the taka's much NC?

It was my first time over the taka's, I was trying to keep up with Velox and MrMelon.

I've only been over them less than 10 times on the bike.

getting the toe sliders down is no problem

Here a quere for you: I've scraged the foot peg on "Roxanne" at Ruapuna. Even shat myself one time when the brake peg bit (ride the back brake on a tight right hander and bottomed-out ). But I have not yet touched me knee sliders on the ground There are times that I think that I am more likely to need an arse slider or elbow slider than a knee one (that's just me hanging off the side, not because I am leaning "Roxanne that low).

Be the way, I find scaping the toe no big deal now if you don't move your feet back. So more often now have the inside foot with only the toe on the inside peg (the old time I'm not riding like a Nana's Old Grandpa ).

I've had boot and peg scrapeage and I'm really surprised how upright I still was, suppose the gnu's no mean cornering machine though. Gets all funky and pogo's on the exit. Probably my fault. (Hopes a track session and some critics teach him good).

[N4CR]

Yeah I have got my toesliders down for a while, used to happen more when I kept ball of my feet on the pegs, then I shifted recently to having the flat of the foot on the pegs and I'm scraping the peg more often... toe sliders have rubbed heaps off so now they only touch just before the peg does :|

Managed to get my knee down in cordura a few times in a carpark before the big massive weekender. Sorta fucked my cordura (burnt through the kevlar in big holes) so I'll be in to get some velcro strips and kneesliders at Mt Eden soon.

Stupid me eh...
