  • looks fast and comfort

  • bmw really put the smack down with about 20 hp more then the top japanese contender they have set the bar high i have never owned a bmw maybe......

  • Was Troy's bike in the onboard lap the stock version or his racing bike?

  • Troy one the best..oh btw,,read the hat..lol

  • What was the extra lever on Troy Corser's race bike on the left clipon? Was that a rear brake lever? I read somewhere some racer injured his foot and used a handlebar mounted rear brake but can't remember if it was Troy or not but seeing the lever there makes me think it was him.

  • I didn't see it and can't be bothered to look, but it's possible i don't know though on wich side it would be best mounted, however alot of racers now use them, the main advantage you get is you still get rear breaking to stabilise the bike on corner entry, withought having to move your right foot from a position it's possible to use the rear break to the correct position to enter a corner, wich is ball of your foor on the peg, moving your foot as your tipping in can upset the bike.

  • Hi Zoom :)

    The guy's name I think you are after is none other than the best of the best. Goes by the name of Mick Doohan. He started to use it quite a while after he injured his leg at Asssen in '92. He had been riding around without using any rear brake at all until they came up with the idea. Alex Criville (his team mate) tried to use it but found it didn't help him at all.

    Cheers, hope this answers your question :)

  • Thanks WK.  I appreciate it.

  • @zoomvidsjc1

    Correct, it's a rear brake. I think the rider you are thinking of that was injured and started using a thumb brake was Mick Doohan.

  • Just been to the dealership launch. Ugliest swinging-arm on the planet; buy one in a single colour otherwise it looks bitty; otherwise it's awesome.

  • I like the styling, the lights are sooo BMW. They have there own style and don't care what are the other manufactures think is in fashion...  :)

  • I like Troy's hat.

  • Yes me too. I asked what kind of juice he's advertising haha

  • great video, greetings from Portugal mate

  • Cheers, will be back in a couple of weeks. But then for Aprilia's RSV4 at Estoril.

  • I love it!!

  • Great to see you blastin' past the other journos.

  • Very good video Tor.

    To get rid of the wind noise you could try the GoPro HD camera. Look it up.

  • Thanks. I tried to pack in and shelter the microphone with lots of racing tape. Some times it works and other times it doesn't

  • camera position and sound during the laps near the end of the movie were awsome. i wish you would upload some more laps:D with the engine sound keep it up great vid

  • I will. On the laps I did earlier in the day it was better light but sound is very difficult on both Troy and my laps

  • The (Green/Olive) Color sucks, but the Bike itself seems to be awesome?!
