    Nah Deano it wasn't the lack of anything exciting or risky or clever or skillful that annoyed me. It was just the total lack of any substance altogether to justify expecting others to watch it. The disturbing bit is that BMW owners seem the worse. Bloody sheilas bikes!
    Another example was someone films their speedo (sobs, it was a F800) as they go around the block in the burbs like a nanna at 30 to 50kph?
    The bike idling I stumbled onto was a stock muffler? Why..why, I ask did anyone need to watch & listen to that? Was it newsworthy, was it entertaining - NOT!
    Bike clips don't have to be of stunts or kneedown rides BUT there should be something of interest to watch and more stimulating than the 2 hour long clips I am going to post of my lawn growing to get back at these losers.

    This is more like a worthwhile bike vid -and it's a F800ST

    Here's a ride clip worth the electrons to upload. I enjoyed seeing how often the rider takes it well into the red zone. I've found that on mine as well, that the F800 motor rewards a jollie good thrashing what.
    For those wondering the speedo needle at his fastest is about the 220kph mark.
    That must be a radar screamer wire flapping about going up to his helmet - at least he wore protection!

    Makes me want to rush out with a bike cam.
