so i went on a quick ride last night and took my camera..

[mattness]

it recorded basically no sound so i threw a couple corny songs up over it

edit: u cant tell in the video but my front wheel comes off the ground several times... and some sharp turns dont look very sharp at all?? oh and the sun looks like a black hole toward the end

the road is 55 mph and im hitting 100 mph on it several times in the vid

 

[mattness]

at 2:45 u can see my bike wobble and the high speed run at the end it had a weave... which ive never experienced before

 

[gamorg02]

looks like a 50 mph decel wobble. check ur bearings.

 

[warbeast]

Mine had the same wobble. Just needed the head bearing adjusted. Works great now.

Ya thats typical, when holding your handle bar with one hand and then bike starts to wobble, its for sure losen head bearings,

 

[2stangs69-91]

mine only does that when the front tire gets worn adjusting the head bearings helped.

Nice tunes...The guy on the quad prolly didn't know what just happen. SHIT! What was that???:eusa_dance:

 

[RaWarrior]

What are you using for a camera mount? I've thought about doing this, but mounting it on the airbox lid to get all the gauges in the view also.

Sweet riding tunes! Was that a tall beer can on the side of the road?unk:

I have some wobble at moderate speeds (50-60 mph). How do you tighten head bearings?

I know how to click on Todays posts but if I wanted to look at a post from a few days ago how do I do that?

Thanks

that would capture the wheelies better but it would vibrate bad. when its on your head it keeps it stable

Nice video man! Was that your sport bike that went into the drink? Looks like you got a bit of rash as well.

Ive got an uncle who lives in Alexandria. Great riding but got to watch the cross roads!

At the bottom right corner, there are pages, click on the #'s for each day past. Or click last and start from the front, back to today.

To search look at the top of the page and you will see a search button. You can search from the main page, or seach individual forums or individual threads. You can also use your favorite seach engine to search for posts on this forum. I use my google search engine and type in whatever I'm looking for and then after that I type in "site:vmaxforum.net". So, if you searching for how to adjust steering bearings you would type this
