Am I having an acid flashback or is your camera made out of jelly?

PS. Do you ever change gears?

that is compressed so the quality is not very good like the orginal file.

it's tight on that particular part... so i was just on 2nd gear. i only use up to 3rd gear on that canyon.

on ACH though... i can go up to 4th... and 5th on the long straights if i feel like gunning it.

You might have heard about Colorado's big snow this last week, I went out riding today, and I wish I could have leaned! lol Anyway, looks like a fun road to ride, just don't crash on us, alright?

He must be redlining it sometimes, do you think? Or is a sport bike supposed to be ridden at the red line all the time?

Considering how slow he is riding I dare say he is nowhere near redline as the majority of the power is produced up there. There is also a lot more engine braking at higher revs which is probably better suited to his comfort zone.

No bike is happy running at redline for extended periods, but the occasional bounce off the rev-limiter shouldn't be a problem.
