Hmm, Videos never really look quick, this one does

    now watching that the guy in the blue and white leathers only has a matter of time before he meets with a nasty outcome, some of his lines left him extremely vunerable like running wide out of right handers.
    and being more concerned with getting his knee down than riding the correct line

    nice vid, nice road. always hard to find a balance between racing lines and road riding lines. you can't even really position your body properly, because you're craning your neck to see around the corner opposed to sticking it in the near side mirror...causing your body to twist....you can see that on the R6 rider.
    Still nicely quick and fun looking !!

    I bet they don't ride like that for very long. Can see a video being used in a court case against em. Triumph rider didn't care about wiping his mates out or anybody else for that matter!!!

    While I'm not even as quick as the guy in the black & white leathers, I can sense the frustration which our friend on the Triumph must feel when coming out of every corner, he accelerates and almost rear-ends the bloke in front. I hereby apologise to everyone whom I have baulked in this way!

    I do think that his first attempt at an overtake (on the inside exiting a corner) came very close to a nasty and I am not wholly sure he had good enough visibility when the second, successful overtake was done. But I do recognise the camera sees the world from a different point of view.

    You only need to worry when I get held up coming out of a corner mate ;)
