Great Vid! I did the Tuesday night run since I was on a study abroud over there and fell in love with the track. I want to take my motorcycle over there so bad and ride that track!

Great video!

Your bike looks amazing? Are those Ohlins forks? If so I'm surprised you've not gone for lighter wheels as you are obviously far too wealthy :D

I have an old 'Blade and GoPro and will be upgrading to an '08 Blade this year as it's the first bike I've ridden in the last four years that actually makes me want to sell mine!

Are those ASV levers or Pazzo? The whole bike looks really neat and aggressive!

[GernotDiver]

thanks mate! its full ohlins suspension, front and rear, yeah. havent touched the wheels, there were other parts to be replaced first, but u may have given me a new upgrade idea here :)

I really like the 08+ model blades, they are sooo good to handle, yet very powerful!

No, its the Brembo 19RCS brake master cylinder incl. folding lever, clutch is stock...

have installed the reverse & quick shifter now, check my latest video, the shifting is amazing! :)

happy u like my bike, mate!

expensive?

[GernotDiver]

not cheap, but so worth it!

Hi GernotDiver! Well, I received a 32GB Class 6 card (no brand) from China (God bless eBay!) and I thought it wouldn't work either seen as the Transcend (a "proper" brand) didn't...

Turns out this cheap 32GB SD card works perfectly! And I also got a 16GB Kingston Class 4 (as recommended by GoPro) just in case so I'm good to go now! ;o)

Should have some nice footage after Sunday! CAN'T WAIT!!! :oD

[GernotDiver]

Hi Steffano, this is great news, glad that it was memory card related!! you enjoy your spin and post the vid!

I am out on the track tomorrow again (nite session), just installed the GP shift & quick shifter. shud work quite well.

[Steffano2002]

I'm delighted it was only an issue with the card! Can't wait for Sunday! :oD

Enjoy your nightly track day (you're so lucky!) and be careful not to forget about the race shift!

First time I rode my race bike (race shift + QuickShifter as well) I only forgot once and nearly went from 12000 RPM in 3rd down to 2nd!

Thankfully, I realised my mistake and didn't release the clutch! Would have been a nice crash / engine blow out otherwise!

All the best! ;o)

really cool video

[Steffano2002]

Another brilliant video! Thanks for sharing!

So, what did you think of the CSS? I couldn't afford doing it when they came to Ireland last year but I do have all Keith Code's books and DVDs! I learned a hell of a lot from them so I'm sure the CSS is worth doing!

Still haven't received my GoPro HD... Hope I get it some time next week cos I'm on track next Sunday!

[GernotDiver]

California Superbike School is the best you can invest in. Professional coaches, professional setup, amazing drills, precise analysis' and brilliant on and off track training. I have meanwhile done Level 4 three times already and i will continue doing so whenever they come to Dubai. You never stop learning and those guys find your weakness points and smoothen them out together with you. All thumbs up for CSS!!

Hope u get your camera, looking forward to see some footage from you!

[Steffano2002]

Wow! I should really start saving up for when they come over to Mondello Park (Ireland) in August! BTW, just checked CSS website and they're advertising your video on it! You should ask for a rebate! lol

Checked online to see the status of my delivery and it arrived in the country on Friday so should have it before the track day on Sunday! I'll send you a link to my vids when they're uploaded. But don't be expecting world-class race track action! Everything is smaller in Ireland... ;o)

[GernotDiver]

have seen it!!! BLUSH!!! go for it, mate, YOU WILL LOVE IT!!! and looking forward to seing your vids

[Steffano2002]

@GernotDiver Hello again! I got my GoPro today and went for a spin on the 'blade as soon as I got home! And guess what, the bloody thing won't work! I keep getting a "SoS" error message. Googled it and it seems it could be the SD card I'm using even though it's a Series 6 (4GB Transcend). Which SD card are you using yourself? Do you get that "SoS" error sometimes/ever? Your help is greatly appreciated! Would hate not to be able to record my test day on Sunday! :o(

[GernotDiver]

[crapfullback]
