[beyond]

Hey, that's pretty cool guys
Good vid.

You'll get the normal flack of course. jackets on

[R6_kid:Me]

re-mapped? It puts out like 111hp down from the 160hp or so from the same motor in the CBR1000RR from last year. I think it's a bit more than a re-map!

nice vid carver

So do shops lend you bikes knowing you are going to wheelie them and "fuckin rape the shit out of it" and not buy them?

[Tony.OK]

the 05 06 07 1000 motor.

The motors fine, 06-07 are better..................the gearing was the culprit for a feeling of slouchiness.

Do like the Predator, looks like a fun bike for an overgrown hoon.

Fook me, that's 6 minutes of my life i'll never get back again...

Huh. That's Egg Zachary what I was going to say.
That was banal, unentertaining, repetitititititive, self-aggrandising, amateurish, puerile, and most uninformative.
So, up to their usual standard.

^^^^Fuck there really are some haters on this site
What did you expect the James May school of slow and steady tweed suits detailing the surface treatment of every nut and bolt?


The editing and effects are coming along nicely, I liked the tiled piece in the middle showing the detailing, nice.

One question though when are Sidewinders balls going to drop, he sounds like one might still be stuck up there or something?
You guys obviously need to work on your gay skills!

It was ok but I was kinda hoping for more than just wheelie after wheelie, and "Sidewinder" could do with some speech training lol (dyslexic much?! )......Carver seems like he can string a sentence together......either way 'twas'nt that bad, and the wheelies are better than mine, i'd have to make a video myself before I complained about this too much......would have been better without the "presenter" but I did'nt hate watching it. Good effort fellas.

Hate? That's a bit strong.

Not at all - it was labeled "CB1000 Test", but it should've been called "Couple of young guys show off on the public streets and do a few wheelies, then stretch out what is not very much content at all to fit the soundtrack."

Hmmmm...maybe.
It could've shown a wee bit more of the bike's details, and there's some real basic flaws, like pacing, too much repetition, obvious lack of any scripting. I mean, if you're going to make a documentary (or is that "mock-you-mentalry"?), and have the cameraman asking questions about the bike, make the questions less banal, and the answers less waffly (or alternatively, make it a bit more outrageous and less serious). Work out beforehand what you're going to say, and what you're going for: serious and informative? Pisstake? Comedy? Action movie?

There were some good bits - the effects added a bit of interest and interviewing ServiceStation Dude was a nice touch.

Well it's sounds like you know what you're on about. How about offering yourself as a directorial consultant, seriously?
Don't just be a typical Kiwi knocker like the impression I got from your earlier post.

[short-circuit]

Come on - it was crap. The same old shit on a slightly better bike than they can usually get their hands on
