Gonna try and be like this guy the first time I go dirt racing.

What the gently caress even happened there at the end.. Did he decide that he didn't really want to be on his motorcycle any longer?

That had to be his first time out, because if he rode like that in practice he would be to sore to go out for the race. (And no responsible organizer would allow him to run. At that skill level/speed he was a danger to everyone there, including spectators.)

Looks just like a classic whiskey throttle to me. Pretty easy to have happen when you're not very experienced on dirt. Dirt is so much harder than it looks it's not even funny.

I was so mesmerized by this seemingly purposely suspended and bouncy revcounter that I almost missed the crash. :stare:

Any insight on what was with the revcounter? Wouldn't it be better more solidly mounted?

Anti vibration/awful bumpy road @ 150mph countermeasure? To try and make it easier to read at a glance rather than just a blur?

I'm 90% sure I've seen one or two older TT/MGP videos with bouncy revcounters

Road racing, with all it's uneven surfaces and intense vibration, is notoriously hard on components. If you want an analogue rev counter rather than a solid state one (some riders prefer this) it's going to need damping.

First chick is white with short blonde hair, second chick is darker with long black hair, making me think it's a guy who likes taking photos of girls on this bike.

To me her leg looks a bit darker, but it could have gotten tan from riding? Either way, whoever those legs belong to could ride my bike any time they please.

Not cold at all. The reduction in pressure chills the air, water vapor (not gas) condenses out and freezes.
