Help me find a YouTube bike video!

[schleppy]

There is this movie on YouTube that's 5 or so minutes long of guys driving like maniacs on public roads, wheelies between cars, bumping each other during wheelies, etc (I know, that describes about 10k videos). The craziest (and most memorable) part is a guy taking a left turn, knee down, and at the last second pulls his knee up to avoid a car in the other lane.

Anyone know what I'm talking about? I forgot to favorite the damn video and now I want to show someone the knee-miss.

I know which one that is.

I have it on my computer.

And its not 5 minutes. It's 28 minutes long. There was a 5 minute shorty of it someplace. But, I have the full version.

It was a video of a Vtwin Shootout back in 1998. A Ducati 916, Honda VTR Superhawk, and ofcourse.. my favorite... yes ladies and gentlemen... the TL1000R.


PM me your info and I will send you a CD.

Or... I can see if I can find it....

hang on a few minutes, I'll go and look for both the shorty and the longy.


I can get you the full version on CD

I'm watching parts of it on YouTube, and I haven't found the clip yet.

The vid I watched had Linkin' Park playing in the background, and seemed to be a compilation of clips that were new and old.

Here you go:

This is the 28minute version. This is going to have to do.

The part you are thinking about is at 18:25. The guy lifts his knee to avoid the car, but his shoulder actually smacks the drivers side mirror on the car as he goes by. Pretty crazy. Even money, every one of those guys is dead now if they have been doing that stuff all the time since then.

Thanks for the find! Those guys are truly effing whacked. Very talented, but absolutely whacked...
