thats the section I liked. when I messed up it took me a bit to correct. almost had to think two corners ahead. glad i had a slow bike. had lots of time to try to correct my line.

The 2-3-4-5 combo is still going through my head... Do I have issues? Yes. Yes you do. You'll be alright tho. Loved that 2,3,4,5!! As Rocket described: " Corner 2 was actually kinda quick also . You could go in late , lean as much as you could , twist full throttle for a moment , then brake lightly and start your entry for 3 . 2 also had this cool little bump just before the apex which I enjoyed immensely as it got my bike loose a little but nothing to worry about for anyone riding over it . Corner 3 has an excellent entry point .apex,exit and you can twist full for second or two on your way to 4 or just keep a steady pace as four is a tight left . I had to pull my brakes hard for four cuz I liked cranking it out of 3 . It also took me a few laps to get used to leaning left as most on ramps are right and we all get used to leaning right quite easily . 4 is a tight left which you have to feather through so as to not overshoot you entry to 5 5 is the quick right that goes into a short straight and your proper exit at 5 will give you some seriously nice heavy braking should you decide to do so." There are a lot of transitions there and I enjoyed trying to get it right while being smooth on/off the throttle and brakes. Quite challenging!

Both full length movies, Faster and Fastest, are available on Netflix.
There are a few motocross and X-games type movie/documentaries as well. Motorcycle related was the first thing I looked for when I first subscribed a couple years ago...

Yes, the action shots are cool, did you pull them from the video?

Nope, just a wee bit of remnants under the clamping screws left in there.. I could hear the reeds go through the "slap chop" as I was riding. The piston looks fine btw.

But did you have it in photo mode or just captured screen shots while watching the vid? If the latter, I'll go through my video's and post a bunch more!

I look at speed as the result of how the bike handles, not the other way around. Meaning, if I rode 3 bikes into a corner and attempted the same comfort level, for sure I'd have 3 different speeds.

Their Screen shots taken with the video paused. Not the best quality but not bad for video frame captures. I'm running the GoPro in 1080p PROTUNE mode. You may find that yours was shooting in a different resolution so the quality may be different.
