Suspension video

My suspension guy put a camera on the forks to see what they were doing. Pretty interesting. This was from a practice day at Grattan today. Enjoy :up:

I find these videos neat.

After watching the video was the front doing what you expected it to do?

 

sweeeeeet..... no bumps at all! LOL


i heard my bike got crashed on saturday

 

You were flying today.:up: Looks like you took turn one a little deep on the first lap.

 

It did. We were wondering where the forks were bottoming and thought it was on breaks but it was actually just before the hump. It was the last session before we were able to mount it but this is a great tool. We would have made changes after seeing this but it's also help for other tracks.

 

Matt Does a great job! those guys over at CARRMOTO know there suspension.

 

It'd be interesting to have two of the same model bikes around the same track on video .. see how they compare to each other.

Cool video though ..

 

I can tell you where my forks bottomed!! Everywhere

 

Next Grattan track day, after the 5-19 round we'll do that. :up:

 

Yeah, I'd be game for that.

 

Video turned out awesome. Glad we got it hooked up right! This is Kevin by the way.

 

Yep, thanks for your help. It was also cool meeting you and your girl this weekend. Make sure to thank her again for taking care of Hayden. Got a pic of us going through T8 I think. http://s4.photobucket.com/albums/y103/mbooksr1/Grattan 4-20-08/?action=view&current=IMG_9654.jpg

 

I thought I was going to puke just watching your front wheel maneuver through the pits.

Seriously, very cool video!

 

Not sure why, but this vid reminds me of a porno I watched a while back.

 

What a lot of stroking and very little action?

 

No prob with the help man. I enjoy helping where I can. It was fun hanging out! Im sure there will be more times. AWESOME pic by the way! I forgot to get pics from that dude.

 

What? No stand up wheelie?

 

is that a dip in the track or something where the fork bottomed?

 

I'm a little camera shy

 

You've been to Grattan right? Going over the hump before T5 there is a bump then a hump. I think the front end got loose over the bump then landed on the face of the hump when it compressed fully.
