Title: Favourite Youtube clips, serious or stupid !
Post by: Tony Nitrous on Sunday, 21 July 2019, 12:14 PM
Those clips that make you laugh, or go WOW!, the stuff you can watch again and still smile or shake your head...

If you like slapstick, put "Chainsaw fails" into YouTube,  it's a dip into the shallow end of the gene pool!

I like the shadetree surgeon, he is funny, doesn't take himself seriously and is entertaining, check him out.
This is about being a real biker.

London not a friendly place?
Title: Re: Favourite Youtube clips, serious or stupid !
Post by: KiwiCol on Sunday, 22 September 2019, 06:13 PM
Yeah, would appear not. 
Bit like our biggest city, Auckland only on mega steroids.  I remember when I first went up there to live, I called it the town without a smile. Nobody would smile or acknowledge you on the streets. Everyone was too busy, eyes down & looking either miserable or vacant.  Hard thing for a happy sociable bloke to adjust to.  Glad I'm living back further south now & most probably why I'll retire in a small town.

Funny thing is I live/lived about 100 k's north of Sydney and you can tell the difference between city and locals come weekends and holiday periods.

Had a week in Paris, then a week in London with my wife.
She loved it. We did all the normal tourist stuff and then sat in on a session in the Houses of Parliment and another in a High Court Trial, interesting stuff!
There's heaps to see and do in London as a tourist, just like Paris or Sydney,
but bugger living in any of them !

Not my bike or clip, but I recently tried the same settings (but I had a longer road...  ;))

Sport mode, full boost. Launch control restricts the revs, so full throttle, no wheel spin, no wheelies, clutch free up shifts. Just dump the clutch, hold the throttle on full and kick the gears up. The white bars on the dash are throttle position (blue is boost). From sitting on the start with the clutch pulled in to the end of the straight the throttle is held wide open and not backed off.  I love older bikes but newer tech is pretty impressive too.

170mph comes up fairly quick and very easily.

The three BEST videos EVER.


(this ended up becoming a series of short videos too)

AND one which appears to have been removed from YouTube but I am pretty sure is on facebook - called "Creedocide"  It's animated in the old-style.

AND

Cat Shit One.

If you're afraid of heights don't watch. Has been restored to make it more tourist friendly. If you remember Von Ryan's Express it was used in it where they were escaping on the train.

Not the most exciting viewing but as it came up in another thread, and I'd already mentioned automatic gear box fluid and acetone...

I think everyone does without thinking about it or even knowing about it.  If you know about it you can make better use of it though.

seems very unstable at higher boost pressures, bike was driving left something fierce under w.o.t, he had to close the throttle early.  Nice old skool gloves too, and the ripped jeans must be a US approved safety device, same as the girl on the other bike wearing shorts and cowboy boots.....
