Nice vid!

Music was "different"! Not your typical car driving music....

Best of both worlds; bike and S2000. Awesome footage, great quality, catchy music overdub. Very smooth steering. BTW, all speeds in kilometers/hr. 30kph=19mph; 40=25; 50=31; 60=37; 70=43; 80=50; and 86kph = 53mph. Pretty impressive. Can't wait to be back in the "real" twistys. Thanks for posting.

I had missed that at the beginning of the vid!!! Went back and watched it again, and saw the little thing saying speed in kilometers...

And I was starting to think that I was really, really slow on the Dragon... Now I don't feel so bad, just slow, not really, really slow!

Just between you and me, it wasn't really in kilometers.
