I've been meaning to try this out for a while now, and today it kind of came together.  The end result did NOT please my wife, but I'm pretty stoked:

pardon me if I'm wrong, but Doesn't the speedo read about 70kms/hr or so? or is it just my eyes

If 70kms/hr is warp speed i'd hate think what 170kms/hr is.( hyperdrive maybe?)

No cable release, just a 20 second timer and plenty of stops on side roads.  Press button, vroom, SNAP, <repeat>.

The camera's self-timer options are, IIRC, 2, 5, 10 and 20 seconds.  I set it to 20 so I'd have time to get up to speed and line it up, but 10s is all I really needed.

Bikes I've jumped and/or crashed:
84 Kawasaki KDX 80 - Bike i learned to ride on when I was young(er)
84 Kawasaki KDX 200 - First naked bike. crashed so frequently the plastics wouldnt stay on.
99 KTM 620 - If you could even get the thing kick started in the first place...
02 Yamaha Zuma - not a motorcycle but still crashed and jumped it way too many times.
04 Harley Road King Classic - Awesome story behind this
06 Ducati S2R 1000 - neither.... yet.
