Damnit, I wish I could post that Christian Pfeiffer video my roommate took downtown, but it's 160MB, my upload rate sucks, and I'm lazy. He's an amazing rider, and doesn't really adhere to the HELLAFIED STUNTA culture.

Well, here's some highlights of that video:

If you guys like it, let me know and I'll upload the whole thing. I've got about 10 minutes of him stunting in my hometown of San Luis Obispo, CA. This was the Thursday before the MotoGP weekend in Laguna.

Would it kill BMW to put symmetrical headlights on their bikes? I can't help but thinking that the bikes look like they're all o.0

You sure you want symmetrical? They tried that once...

Went racing again. They did a 3 hour endurance thing, that was pretty fun to watch. A mix of bikes, some old CB fours, some old Triumphs, an 125 2-stroke of some kind, a Hawk 650 or two.



Dear god, is it just me or does the chain on that Hawk look like it's WAY too loose?! :stare:

Marc Marquez is hosting some flat track race in Barcelona, and CycleWorld is getting it streamed for North America. Should be good.

Pretty awesome stuff... would have loved to see more footage like this with Brad Baker in it. That guy was amazing.

You're right, it does look relatively clean and un-insect-like, but it's still much busier than an XB; part of that is the exhaust, but also the little trellis frame under the seat. That's what I love about XBs, how clean and uncluttered they look. I never liked the look of the water cooled Buell swingarms either.


Ah drat, I forgot how good those old XBs looked.

Riding a low HP bike means you can pick up some pretty bad habits....

Lol, forgive me for reading this as "everyone go out and buy a 1290."
