Hi Joolz. Cheers for post on welcome page.
Just thought I'd mention you ride same bike & year as my fella. We have done loads of miles 2 up but he gets to ride on his own now since he bought me the Speed Triple. He loves his bike too. I have been too scared to try it as yet! :party:

That's pretty awesome. I'll share some of my videos from my GoPro HD. What camera are you running? I want to get a Contour HD as a secondary camera for simultaneous shots from different angles.

I looked at rocket iii before I bought my vmax. There a nice looking bike. It was definitely a big bike! How's the handling around town?

Never thought about a camera before. That might be a cool idea. What kind of camera do you recommend?

I already have the GoPro HD and it does really well if a little bulky and is water and shock proof and comes with tons of mounts. The Contour HD has similar video qualities and is more stylish and less bulk but is not waterproof and has less mounts (more can be purchased). I think the GoPro has better audio.

My videos are on Facebook so I'm not sure if linking it here would actually work.

Nice bike, nice video!

From your video you can sure tell you are in England! The roads, the houses the signage, all what it looks like when I'm riding around London, UK myself. I would guess you are on an A road?

How is the Rocket III in the twisties and on those really tight B or local rural roads?

As for the GoPro HD, Total Motorcycle just received one and will be reviewing it shortly.
