Except for the whine of the IL4 engine, this is one of the best on-board videos I've seen. Ben is pushing pretty hard. Thanks Michael Jordan Motor Sports! Treat yourself and pull it up on youtube and view it in full screen mode. Still my favorite though is the Pegasus Race Team's on board of Harald Kitsch on their EBR 1190RR tearing up a field of Ducatis and IL4 literbikes. Turn it up!  | ||

notice at 3:50 there is a adjuster on clutch perch i thinking carb idle adjuster looks like it should be weight bias adjuster to keep front wheel on the D#$%n ground wow great video on 1190RR !!!! | ||

Great watches !!! I love how the 1190 sounds so much throatier than the I4 and the bike sounds like it's going slower till you see the other bikes just fade!!!! | ||

The 1190 doesn't sound like it is even working very hard............just loafing along..........  | ||

"The 1190 doesn't sound like it is even working very hard............just loafing along.........." It looked to me that it wasn't 'racing'. Maybe test session, judging from the other riders(?). Sounds good, though. | ||

Dang the first one w/Ben and compairing it to some of the videos I've seen of people at track days. Ben is hauling ass and they seem to be going around the track at like 45 mph. I wish I had half of the skill professional racers had. They make it look sooo smooth and effortless on tv but you can see they work real hard at there job by that video. | ||

..i was leaning in my chair on every corner...love those vids.Thanks Blake.That one looked like a track day...liked the last loop as he was "searchin' for barn owls"..and +1 to listening to the 1190:the"sound" and how it doesn't sound like its all wound out.Gotta love that V-twin torque...mmmmmmmmm sounds very nice.LT | ||

What isn't communicated through the video are the relentless g-forces that they have to deal with, all while moving around and hanging off one way then the other. It's brutal over race distance. | ||

I loved the harmonics on the 1190 as it hits the torque peak. Sounds mighty sweet. |
