The 690's radiator guard bolts into the radiator, I snapped it out :smith:

I think the point is Z3n is a space cowboy on the edge of a frontier unknown to man, he's out there pushing the limits, trail braking into the abyss. Finding out where the edge of the razor is, turning to face the darkness and revving his 690 into it's vast gaze. You gotta live this to learn it bro.

Love those triple barrel shotgun looking exhausts too, sounds like the bike is even cheaper than a Goldwing actually, the Honda having a bit more luggage space I imagine with the BMW having the performance edge.

As fun as it is to watch and listen to, I couldn't get past the piss poor driving of these test riders. They blew half the corners in the video, apparently deliberately, and were riding way over the speed limit. No real BMW owner would ride like that. Dicks.

I'm not sure how regular it is, but the demo truck stopped by a year or two ago and I huffed it down there to get to ride a shiver.

Same way as autocross, it looks a lot more complex from an outside perspective than when you're actually in the course. They also probably walk it in the morning before competition.

This is low speed, frankly I'm more impressed he does it without counter-leaning that much.

Very skillful, not only does he/she have to be quick and precise when how much flick they give it to lean it back and forth to the edge, but the throttle and clutch control is fantastic.

And here I am, feeling all chuffed that I can actually easily do tight parking lot maneuvers without putting a foot down as I look down on cruisers.
