Tepesquet in 4 parts

Saturday we had a little North South Lunch meet in Avila Beach, on the way up we rode a couple of Tim's favorite roads,

Tepesquet was the first road he took me on and boy did i hate it back then, I was new to the FJR and those tar snakes with eat you alive, well now half of it has been repaved and the other half will still eat you alive.........

This is in 4 parts and is the whole 17 minutes at real speed....

is Part 4


R

thoroughly enjoyed parts 1 and 2. part 3 was part 2. keep 'em coming. someday I'll get out there....on the bike.

Richard,

Great job on parts 1 & 2. MsNASCAR and I really liked part 2 as you did too because part 3 is part 2 revisited.

MsNASCAR wants one of these cameras for our bike too. What can you you recommend?

Sorry guys it is fixed now........

and added part 4

Very nice video quality and a smooth ride by Fairlaner. I remember a bit rougher ride and being "eaten alive" from the seat of my FJR.

Any video of the 101 ride thru traffic on the way home?

Great video... that was a VERY fun ride!

101 video would just cause the usual shit storm on here......besides that i didn't record it.

R

Thanks for the video memory! Although it seemed a little faster in person!

Super fun ride!

Richard,

Great video, top shelf....admiring your FJR's suspension smoothing over

all those twisty imperfections, Stock or reworked? Seems nicely balanced.

reworked.....just new springs and oil.

Richard,

Straight wound or progressive? Seems cushy on the video, like it might want to dive on a hard front brake. And then again you have the ABS......I'd like to get that cod liver oil out of there and make my forks start to work again. What weight oil did you finally go with?

Try the GoPro Hero HD at costco for $179, I have the HD and the standard GoPro, don't waste your

money on the original. It's good, but the HD is great.

I think Richard is using the Hero HD



Very nice video.

Yep Go Pro HD it is..........

Larry it si 10 weight oil I believe....
