Few minutes of my favourite part of Hartside Pass. Bonus clip at end, dodgy clip but epic sound I reckon.

Looks like your body hangs over the white line on the right handers, could just be the camera making it look like that. Love SM would get a smaller one if it was not for living in the sticks. Cool video.  ____________________ Current: 2019 Yamaha T7 -> 2015 KTM Superduke R | 2000 Yamaha R1 Past -> 2009 KTM 990 SM -> 2005 kawasaki ZX10r -> 2000 Honda CBR 600 FY -> 2002 Honda XLV 125 Varadero

Bonus clip, how fast were you going then? Or any guesstimate on their speed? |
We were only doing about 50, just waiting for a mate to catch up. I'd guess they were doing 120 at least. Caught them up just before the bridge at the end. The other side's a bit too boring for an SM, I'm usually flat out the whole time, engine screaming away.

Probs trick of the camera, I'm crap at right hand bends though, mental block on them, think it's to do cars being over the line in the past, especially caravans, don't trust anyone. Downside to the chesty mount is doesn't show where you're looking, just where you're going. ____________________ KTM 990 SMT & Suzuki DR-Z 400 SM |

Always easier going up, Kirkstone Pass is a scary one going down
There's an info board at the cafe I think with the history of it. Sure it was rated one of the worst roads in the UK at one point due to too many bends  ____________________ KTM 990 SMT & Suzuki DR-Z 400 SM |

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 10 years, 180 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
