Ahh... I could not wait any longer. I was actually just complaining, when I decided to look around, and there it was. Waiting! This vid has a more distinct sound than the others... probably the best vid yet from Laguna: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSpTsmUp0gc For those who have ridden, does this video sound legit? | ||

That was a real treat!! Love the wheelie! | ||

Actually that sounds a little louder than I remember!? Although I was wearing ear plugs and it was extremely windy at Road America that day!  Great video though! Schmitty | ||

That sounds soooooo sweeeet! | ||

Because there's no windscreen in the way, the camera must be mounted to the fork. If this is true, the mic would be closer to the engine or front header. This might explain why its louder on this particular vid. | ||

Watching it again... I don't know. Seems like this guy has some pretty good AV. Maybe the audio was filtered - I dunno | ||

Laguna is wild! Sometimes(via the video) it looks like you heading towards a cliff. I've only been on one track(mid-Ohio) and found some video to compare the two. It has to be gas to ride that place...Not saying that I didn't like Mid-O(it rocks, Thanks Buell) but that place looks like the first few laps are pure pucker... | ||

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSVZ0i-wtXA Found this after watching the Laguna clip. A nice talk about the Helicon. Ken Hutchison from MotoUSA and Torsten Gall(sp?) from BRP-Rotax Z | ||

Z: That is a cool interview. The Torsten dude looks like someone I partied with in High School  | ||

That was great! That course is amazing. The lean angles are so crazy as he is going through the switchbacks and down the hill. The funny part is that I knew every corner from playing Gran Tourismo. | ||

Yea those polyphony games are really amazing. I would have liked to do some game design an programming, but from what I hear those programmers are like greyhounds. They are the biggest work wh0res of the IT industry. | ||

Dammit. I'm sick as a dog, can't keep food down, it's raining outside....and now I want to go for a ride. Grrr.... | ||

I found the 1125r to have a bit more engine noise than exhaust noise most of the time. Sounded great, but different from the AC Buells. | ||

There is a new video on youtube from motorcycle.com http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcnEq8sCf0s I wish they would get rid of the lousy background music so you could hear the bike better. | ||

The Raptors and Rockets videos of Laguna were great. Good switching from McWilliams doing the briefing to the scenes from the bike. Good overview of Laguna by McWilliams for those who are going to be at the Inside pass too! About 9 minutes http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34x1ISSxfUs | ||

That's a nice one. Fairly crisp even full screen on a 23" (1920X1200) lotsa wheelies. Z |
