You obviously have no idea what adrenaline is. We push the boundaries and live on the edge to feel alive. Some of us are insanely capable riders who are well aware of common sense risks as well. Stay in the back of the pack on your bike and leave the serious riding to us.
I don't know why this road is so famous... I guess in USA most of them are long straight boring road😜 In Spain we have a lot of them, so every time you can do a different route. For example, look for Prades (Tarragona) I call that are Nurburgring, because is a green hell of a road, or the road above Castellar del Vallés (Barcelona), la Alpujarra (Granada), etc... I invite you to come to Spain and enjoy some good roads and food
I just got my first sport bike. I can't wait to be good enough to take this ride. What a trip. Awesome video thanks for letting me ride on your shoulder.
Spend the money to buy top of the line leathers and helmet and boots and gloves and body armor then go out to the racetrack and spend time and money practicing on the track days, where there are no cars, opposing traffic, animals, trees, RVs, and cliffs... if you want to have a slightly higher chance of survival!!
@@Dharma-Track I just went to my first track weekend at Little Talley. Chewed up tires but I learned a lot taking the race classes and talking to the coaches and many new friends, running the track. Can't wait til next season.
I live in Los Gatos in northern CA. This looks exactly like many of the roads that I ride daily. What makes this road dangerous is many that ride it aren’t familiar with its nuances. I bet it’s less dangerous to local regulars. Most of my areas local wrecks are caused by excessive speed for the conditions, ie. wet or cold roads. Be safe!
@@riderdie1603 I live on the shores of Lake Erie half hour East of CLE. My good friend finally bought property in Robbinsville NC. Right on 129. Tail of the Dragon. Been there many times now. I have 2010FZ6R and 2015fz09. Good times down there. Mountain people are great too. I saw a black bear early in the AM. on mile 5 once. Really something
Love that place I live 5 hours but I'm in a mx5 my conner eater . I always wondered how fast you guys go. I might can keep up with ya in curzes but on long stretch I'm done
The bike has a long pole mounted on the back, kind of a like a sturdy fishing pole or radio antenna. The camera is mounted on the top and can be facing forward or backwards... simple but effective.
Talk about horrible body positioning this is really really bad. Upper body is wrong in 100% of the turns. Like cringe level bad I wouldn't have even posted this its embarrassing. You should stop being a goon on the streets and get on the track
Amen Slayer. I don't even ride a sport bike but I do know a bit about physics and about rider positioning and I'm frankly amazed this dude is still alive. I hate to think there are young riders out there trying to emulate this.
I don't get why you'd cross the line anywhere on any road while riding. If you wanna go fast get on the freeway. You're minimizing lean angle by jetting across a double yellow, but for what? The fun is riding the road, why try to make it straighter?
Freaking amazing video. Thank you. Sorry for the noob question. How was this filmed? I see it was a 360 degree camera. But how is it mounted? Really cool
I live just over the line in Ky and own two motorcycles a liter bike and a CBR300R and yes we have great roads for riding. My favorite is down by Laurel lake in corbin Ky. We often race on a long bridge over looking the damn!
Wondering how long you been riding before you did this tail. Also do you have any good advice for my brother who just start riding and is looking to ride this tail soon
This guy has been riding for a long time. Your brother will be fine. Even new riders can handle the dragon. It's just the way you ride it. There's plenty of people out there just cruising around going the speed limit. I think you'd be surprised, it's so twisty it's really hard to get going very fast at all. Just go, you'll have fun!
stayed pretty much or the right side of the double yellow (witch should be thought of as a wall) cars and bikes alike ....too many people riding this dragoon .. i'll be on the backroads of Carolina or Wisconsin or Tenn...VMax n R1x2
Fun but crazy . I used to elude cop cars .I had a kawasaki 2 stroke ,3 cylinders (widow maker) and later a modifed1975 Honda 750 F. NEVER rode recklessly with a passenger. Now that I am almost 70 and had my share of broken bones and bruises I think i was lucky not to kill myself or do a head on collision with innocent people. The risk of hitting an animal is present on theses road too . Still once in a while I like to drag the frame on my Road Star or do a little power slide .
No worries I saw it in the corner of a couple of frames.. For some reason I remember it being up closer to where you turn into the carpark mind you that was 20 years ago so memory plays tricks on you at times..
