There is a DRZ-SM in Tourist Trophy, instantly making it my favorite game

My main problem with ride was the sounds of the bikes made it sound like a loving ps1 game most of the time. That and the lack of customisation and bike selection.

I remember playing the poo poo out of Tourist Trophy though. That game was awesome.

The bike mods seemed like the type of thing someone unfamiliar with a motorcycle would think up, too.

Oh boy, I can upgrade to a 530 chain! On a video game motorcycle! :downs:

Bike 2 is looking good, though. I'll check out the reviews and maybe pick it up.

Also what the hell do you do to an H2 to get halfway to melting its pipes? Just bounce it off redline constantly without going fast enough for air movement to cool it down?

He's doing a continuous burnout while riding the front brake for the entire video

I like how a guy does a burnout on the most powerful bike, by far, on the market, and thinks it's impressive. Gee, you got the rear wheel to easily break traction on a 310hp 530 lb motorcycle. You must be some sort of superstar!

What a tool.You just know he is insufferable to be around, too.

vvv I don't think this changes anything in my opinion of him.

Is it actually? Or just some Saudi squid on a mislabeled video? You'd think a world champion would know better than to wear loafers on a motorcycle.

i'd wager that if you're good enough to be a world champion you feel like you're good enough that it doesn't matter what you wear

Speaking of games, this is probably my favorite when it comes to two wheels: http://mxsimulator.com/

It looks and sounds like poo poo, but it plays soooo good. Try the demo, turn off arcade physics, get angry at your computer.

Cycle Asylum book review: https://www.amazon.com/Soft-Science...nce+road+racing

This book sucks.

I think it might have good information in it about riding bikes around asphalt courses, but I can't tell because half of all the text is discussing the difference between planning and execution and missing pieces in your plan and the difference between thoughts and motion and how to translate motion into thoughts and thoughts into motion and then how to do it with a plan. It's written by an annoying idiot, in other words, and I have no idea how Keith came up with such useful advice in Twist of the Wrist or how he runs such a famous track day school. He seems to think he's addressing 6 year old philosophy students all the time so most of his discussion is abstract to the point of nonsense and so basic as to be boring and redundant to anyone who speaks English and rode a bicycle once.

"In a recent interview, Kazunori Yamauchi admitted that he could make another Tourist Trophy game. However, with constant updates to the Gran Turismo series, a new project might not be possible as Yamauchi admitted the franchise is extremely time consuming. Although working on Gran Turismo 6, Polyphony Digital is also considering a new Tourist Trophy game for the PlayStation 4. As of date, no official announcements are made for this yet."

I'm cautiously excited about the new Ride video game and I think that the V-Twin Tuono Factory* is one of the coolest looking bikes ever.

There was one for sale in Chicago for 6500 and if it had been available when I was shopping for bikes I would have bought it in a second, and as a result would probably be driving the Focus to work while I wait for parts.

* I remembered after stalking through CL for Tuonos again that the picture above isn't of a Tuono Factory but I still like that look.

I was considering a v4 tuono factory for my next bike but after sitting on one in a dealers, it's too small. It's tiny compared to my 07 tuono. Now I don't know what to consider next, maybe a superduke?

Considering every other video I've seen of Brazilian cops, I'm surprised he didn't get smoked as soon as they pinned his bike.
