    Multiple repost, but always a good one.

    And it proves a point, too.....
    To everybody getting their first bike, and claiming they will "outgrow" a Ninja 250, or a GS500 within a month.......

    If you really believe that you could pass that guy on his Goldwing, then maybe you can move up to a faster bike. Until then, work on your riding!

      Some of the best riders I've ever met were old dudes on 'Wings. They can really eat up some miles.

        Nice vid.
        Now time for me to pick it apart.
        The Gold wing had some impressive lines throughout the entire length of the film. which makes a point of knowing what your bike can do and how you can throw it into corners.

        The Camera bike, on the other hand, he needs some help. I lost count how many times in this film that on all the left hand turns that he had his head over the double yellow line. The Dragon is a two lane road, with very little room for error. you see a full size truck oncoming during the vid. what if the camera man had his head over the double yellow line while in a blind corner. Bingo he would be picking his helmet out of the left headlight of that truck.

        Good video of how to ride the Dragon from the Goldwing POV
