@leftystrat62 Official Halfthrottle riding gear.

[leftystrat62]

@halfthrottle At least your wearing a helmet, I used to only wear my boots and no helmet & jacket-only took me ten years to figure it out that I had it backwards. cheers

[halfthrottle]

@leftystrat62 This was just a little fire road 10 minutes from my house. But don't they say most accidents happen close to home? Guess I was lucky, cause I sure don't have any skillz.

[MrRocmike3]

We're gonna have to get that boy to rde a MAN'S motorcycle. It bears the name, Harley Davidson! And yes, they still have the best dirt bikes built.

[halfthrottle]

@MrRocmike3 You think H-D makes the best dirt bikes? Enlighten me.

...and here I thought Honda made the Valkyrie. ;^) Great videos you've made. Really enjoyed the GS continent crushing ad!

[halfthrottle]

@jabbott0 Glad you liked them. I wanted to see if I could out do BMW advertising people, which is no small task considering the claims they make.

Very nice ride!

Only one advice, fully preload your suspension while on dirt.

Very good video

[halfthrottle]

At the first of the video my suspension was all the way loose. About halfway through I stopped for a moment and tightened it up. On the rear anyway.

poor camera, looks like it got dusted. ... no riding boots ?!

[halfthrottle]

Normally I wear boots, this is just a little fire road, I wasn't far from civilization. That camera has been through worse than dust. Find my video 1200GS vs. V strom Skylike Drive, and watch what happens at the end.

@halfthrottle Now this is a very nice video, I love this video, the ground clearance isn't great though, have you toured many countries with it

[halfthrottle]

@HMSDaring1 I had fun making this video, always been a big fan of this music too. Some people say it looks like I'm riding around looking for my camera. I've been from Utah to Panama and home again on it. There are many videos from that ride here on YouTube.

Nice job!

[jimhikeat]

nice bike and video,,,i have the vstrom...love it..just need a decent camera now..will have to check out that canon....thanks

[LatiTea18]

I had BMW GS 1200 ADV that bike is too expensive, too hard and powerless. I drive it for 2 years and 28.000km...

Now I have KTM 990 adv, and KTM is much better bike!

[SkanderRT]

Nice, good job

[Braddlisan]

Nicely done video! What kind of camera and software are you using? I need to move somewhere with good fireroads!

[halfthrottle]

I filmed this with a Panasonic PV-GS80 (cheapest camera money can buy). It cost me $200 3 years ago! I use iMovie '09 to edit. Recently I have upgraded my camera to a Canon Vixia HFS100. Check my more recent video's about the police motorcycles, and you will see a huge difference in picture quality. I love the new camera.
