OK. It's raw video of about five minutes on the Dragon. It's my first run, but after my near-death experience.
You'll recognize the high gear. I'm nearly bogging her out. That's on purpose. After my close call, I wanted the engine braking the lower gear gives. You'll notice a couple turns where it comes into play.
There's one turn, where you see Killboy's sign (at about 43s) and you'll here a loud scrape. That's my kickstand. Keep in mind, this is after I determined to slow the "F" down.
The original video is in 1080p shot from the GoPro2. It's a very wide angle lens. What that means is that the turns are actually way tighter than they appear, (believe it or not).
This video is in what Youtube considers HQ. It took an hour plus to upload and nearly that to convert. The HD video will take about 4.5 hours to upload. I don't plan to do so, unless enough people want to see it full screen and hi def.
Now that I've figured it out, I've lots of video to upload from that run. It takes a long time to convert from the raw MP4 to something Youtube will recognize. Lots more time to upload it.
If the resolution is acceptable, for those who care to watch, I'll be able to get more posted, much faster. Otherwise? I'll post the HD, but the remaining videos will not happen soon.
If you are someone who has an opinion, then let me know your thoughts. Otherwise? Please enjoy this five minutes of fun!
