I'm getting an image in my head of someone opening a nice bottle of wine, lighting some candles and watching 2h30mins of motorcycle crashes.

Steps for viewing a new No Prisoners konstantinos777 release

Location
All viewing seats should be in an upright position, and have raw copper wires loosely connecting your chair to the closest high-voltage outlet
  • For optimal viewing situation you should be at work, on the clock and preferably in overtime with co-workers in nearby cubicles.
  • Speakers and system volume should be set to max, so your co-worker/apartment neighbor can feel the fairings grinding away - this simulates the public humiliation of a brutal crash
Diet
Prepare and consume the following shamanic, wide-spectrum chemical blend to approximate the diet of the average No Prisoners victim. Mixture should be ingested as rapidly as possible with one short break to scream wildly in your native tongue ("BLYAD/gently caress"/etc):
  • 6 oz Vodka
  • 2 quarts Gudamba/Desi Daru
  • 3 oz Jack Daniels
  • 1 24oz Can Monster Energy
  • 3 small diet (light-blue) RedBull cans
Optional
  • Connect one (1) Soviet-bloc surplus gas mask via hose to the exhaust of a coal-chipped Cummins© Turbodiesel and inhale deeply. Not recommended for beginners.
  • Have either your girlfriend (pink Scorpion helmet) or a close bro (plaid shorts and sandals) do a parked burnout with your bike, directly in front of you - for the smoke factor
  • Give your favorite local vagrant two fifths of Stolichnaya and the keys to a weird Mercedes cargo truck; also instructions to your office/house

lol if you don't follow this regime in combination with the Ludovico Technique. I have been doing this for the last six No Prisoners and I can already anticipate a cross-traffic hatchback two miles in advance - in another ten years/fifteen-thousand crash clips I am fully expecting to be able to shift to seventh gear and warp through Taiwanese red lights in GoPro© Five-Dimension™, with my lizard brain accurately predicting all possible vectors due to extensive YouTube crowdsourced 4g broadspectrum analyzation

Was going too fast bro just ran out of road, had to layerdan, no way my tires would have kept traction if I leaned it further than 15 degrees. Didn't you know the surface area is like the size of a can of bud light? *bends the bill of my camo sportsball hat*

The kind of lane splitting some people do in that video is terrifying, I split to the front of the pack when we're at lights or if traffic is basically at a standstill, but you've got guys in there doing what looks like 60-70k's an hour through flowing traffic like it aint no thang. And then someone changes lanes into them.

Those are SEGA graphics, the game is Super Hang-On. SEGA games always looked like that (Afterburner, etc). The SNES couldn't really do racing games well until Mode 7 came along.

Yep it is, the "Super" version though. SEGA games (both arcade and home systems, most SEGA games of the day were ported arcade games) used big, chunky, fast-moving, colorful sprites, something the NES/SNES weren't very good at. This was pretty much ok though because the types of games on the systems were very different, SEGA was mostly "action" oriented, while Nintendo games had more depth. I was a Nintendo man.

Just put together a video from a little climb I did in september. Me on my transalp and my brother on his 690 duke.
It was pretty late in the season for such a high road, it was snowing on top, and the temp was at +2c.
The road is an access road to a hydroplant dam that extends further into to mountain to a separate river flow gauge. One of the last days it was drivable all the way without winter tires.


There is jumplinks at the start and in the description, as the whole 53 min video may be of little interest :)


I really wish garmin added colour correction to the virb edit program. As it is now I need to first edit it and then render in virb edit to get the gps overlay, then import it to gopro edit or another program to get colour correction.
But atleast with the new virb firmware I can also pair the voicecom to the camera so I can record com chatter too.

I might disagree if the ears were even a little bit smaller and optionally housed things other than air vents, such as cameras or radio equipment.

But they're not, and they don't.
