Sport riding videos

Post  riderrocketman on Mon Jun 09, 2008 3:12 pm

Hey all! You guys know riding the darkside is a good option for biking in general but how's about for sport riding?
Decide for yourself as you see me running super-Rocket "MissTress" in a sport touring rally a few weeks ago.

Hi RiderRocketman,

I couldn't help but feel as I was reading your post that you were expecting a response of, "No or Hell No"..... But I have to tell you, and I think Smokey, Twin, Muntz and many of the other guys on the board will agree with me when I truly say, "HELL YES" going Darkside would be a great option. Especially a "Wideside" 205 but probably not on a bike like yours. . I ride roads similar to the ones you were on quite often. I'm pretty sure the others will have similar responses.

From the response I really expected to see a sport bike (crotch rocket) on a track..... What you were doing looked like a hell of a lot of fun. I wanna go!! When's the next one?
In fact two weekends ago I was riding with a Triumph and we were riding together on similar roads... of course he had way more torque and acceleration but I didn't have problems hanging in the twisties.... IT was a Blast.

Have FUn!!!

P.S. AWESOME video!!
