following an R1 part 1

This is part 1. Last session on Sunday before I called it quits for the weekend (my legs were very tired by this point). It's me following Jeff on his R1 (duno what year). Jeff was running a pace right at the edge of my comfort limit. Watch me try to keep Jeff in my sight for this session.

Also note the footage was shot with a GoPro "Wide" and the wide angle lens make other bikes look tiny when in real life they look 8X bigger. The GoPro wide is great for filming your body position on the bike and other close up shots but not so good for looking up track. Maybe someday I'll pick up a second camera with a narrower field of view (GoPro HD supposedly coming out soon!). Anyway thanks for watching and comments welcome.

Nice video, how was the camera mounted on the front? I have a 954rr, whats the exhaust setup on yours?

Thanks, The camera was mounted just below the windscreen with the sticky mount that comes with the Gopro. The exhaust is an Akrapovic carbon fiber slip-on.
