All squidliness aside, the dude on the 999 had some skills.

the 999 was smooth and they adjusted lines because they had to i.e. traffic, pavement, etc.  I still can't get over the guy backing the GSXR in at those speeds.

+1 for posting this




-1 for them not being able to stay in the correct lane.  They can out ride me any day but public road = never know what coming towards you and staying in your lane at lest when there is not any traffic in your lane.

Hello there from greece , this is where this video is taken from. The route is Ag.Ioannis in athens... This guys are very experienced drivers and they made this video for commercial reasons only. They know the route blindfolded maybe you cant see from the onboard camera and it gives the impression that some of the curves are blind but their not. The tarmac quality is good because its new. The video given is not the original posted in youtube .
Here are the original posts enjoy them. Also they are very skilled drivers i would say  Smiley




With respect to all.


Thanks for the full length videos and info Rodman!  Do the greek police patrol the road/harass the riders?

My pleasure. The Greek Police cant do nothing about that. And Trust me thats nothing compared to other things happening in the greek roads. If you ll notice in the videos all kind of greek Bike videos. most of the Bikes dont have any license plates. Thats avoid radars and cops. Even if a cop gives them a notice to stop its like telling them to speed more and just go... in 93% of the bikers accidents with a car its the cars fault. Only 7% the bkers mistake. And most of them in the city not outside on the national roads...

With respect...

Wow that's way to crazy for me.  Evil

That gixxer was definately twitchy in the corners. Worn out tires? Someone commented on the youtube link of needing a slipper, but some of them looked like maybe using the rear break and locking it up a little. The engine didn't rev up with every one that happened.

That and it was really loose coming out of the turns under medium throttle. I know it has power, but should have hooked up better than that I would think.

I'll update this later at a convenient time Thank you for tuning in.....

I immediately knew the guy on the Gixxer was the cameraman because the tach had a redline on it  laughingdp

That's the kind a shit that has me going to federal court soon.

The cops were way pissed that I was so old. That playing the "gray" card doesn't always work.
