Yamaha R1 VS Lots Of Traffic On The Nordschleife! (30-4-23) 

ok

It's actually easier than doing at 30kph. Motorcycles the faster they go, the more stable they are. Unless you hit something in front of you, over 200kph is almost impossible to crash out of a Motorcycle, it's incredibly stiff at those speed due to huge giroscopic effect.

to slow to realize he is recording and timing it is redundant.

the timing isnt for him lol. He clearly states in the description that its to show he isn't speeding up the video@@Vova3iLvova

oh, i see. but taking a hand off the bike mid corner going 200 to prove to strangers on the internet you arent speeding up the video is weird

Maybe i'm overexaggerating but i think i'll tear up a bit if I ever have a photo like that lmao. Ripping past people on a track on a CBR is my dream, hopefully not long off, now.

Sick no one throw up? Please explain

They swallowed it again. @@NHEFF09

@@NHEFF09 common slang for 'cool' or 'awesome'

He moved over giving way

I def agree, I wouldn't have taken many of the overtakes anyway cause I'm not nearly as skilled. However that one was pretty risky either way!

agreed

I have the MT-10 and am addicted to the sound

Search Andy Carlisle. He does the ring in 7:10.

Check out Misha Charouden. On his channel a guy, said to be the best in the world on a bike, on this track, runs the course. If hes actually that good, i dont know. Worth a look though.

@@Hammerback972 Misha drives cars not bikes on the ring..And no he is not best in the world.. LMAO

@@Hammerback972he doesn’t even ride 😂

It helps when your p/w ratio is off the charts, plus you actually have to be a good rider. Driving isn't as hard by comparison.

Yup. I went from a 110hp 550lb bike to a s1000rr at over 200hp and like 450lb which is an absolutely insane difference. I wish there was a track like this nearby because it's pointless on the road. I can go to jail on any road without leaving 1st gear. Which is about 90mph. Still worth every penny.

I was doing that too LOL

Or just behind the wind screen, that would mean more sound from the intake as well. I have not tried it, maybe there is too much wind there. In my Superseven I usually use an external mic on the GoPro and put the mic in the passenger seat, no wind and a lot of engine sound.

@@alexbergsland The windscreen could be too noisy, but this highly depends on the windscreen and how airtight it is. I mean, even helmets are very noisy and our ears are far less sensible than most microphones. But I guess, it's often a hit-or-miss situation. Therefore the best thing you can do is to try things out

Agreed! @@yourDecisi0n

Best place for a mic is in the cargo compartment.

​@@future62 No, not really. This will dampen the sound, which therefore has a negative effect on the sound quality. Sound is best recorded directly into the microphone. So, even the direction of the microphone and distance to the sound source (not too far away, but also not too close to it) make a big enough difference to consider. The microphone should be place a few centimeters away from the source, even sometimes a bit further, because microphones are indeed very sensitive. It should be directed at the source and best be openly place. Furthermore, the microphone should have a furry microphone cover, in case there is still some wind picked up by the microphone. Normally, because the exhaust on bikes is so loud, some of the tips can be vaguely followed as the sound pickup is enough in many other places as well. So, the best thing is to try stuff out and see what works best for you. I would still advice against putting the microphone into the cargo compartment

Deathwish would be doing this on public roads, its a closed circuit with traffic rules lol Motorcycle deaths on the nordschleife are about as common as on public roads. Probably less than some spots around the track, the Eifel is a small motorcycle paradise after all.

You should watch the bike record vid. It's nutty. OP had a nice spirited ride with some margin for error and even that takes massive balls on this track, but the 7:10 vid is full send.

He establishes a relationship with each driver before passing them. Its a very sibtle thjng but you can tell if a driver is aware of you in a split second just bt the body language of their car and their head movements. The cars are signaling him to pass and even when they font signal their is a quick acknowledgement 🤙

Bike can go over 299 easy.

​@@collegestudent6071no it cant

​@slimfit767 yes it can.

I imagine they are flooring it but the R1 is just making them all look like grandmas

Thanks for the tip🔥✌🏼
