    Everyone has the right to be stupid. Too many here are abusing the privilege.

    It was funny the first time, eye rolling the second and now annoying the 3rd.

    Enough you 3.

    Hate to be a spoilsport, but you may wish to edit the video to remove either your face at the beginning, or the speed limit sign you pass, or the entire lower third of the screen with the easily-read speedometer. It's seldom smart to have such an overwhelming amount of evidence of breaking the law. 65+ in a clearly posted 30mph zone isn't smart. Fun, but not smart, and certainly not something you want a clear record of online....
    Otherwise, looks like the overfed wagon does itself proud in the twisties. Taken it to the track to see what it can really do?

    dave he wasnt over the line...ive used that same camera angle before and it has the illusion that he is crossing however the video is pretty consistent throughout...and after seeing some of the other raw video's...they are all very familiar with the no crossing of the lines...

    Overusing Anyonomous Zenmaster quotes will eventually come back to bite you in the ass and leave you with no place to sit

    I watched the first 3-4 minutes... it's all camera angle. I had the same effect when I tried a behind-the-seats mount w/ my camera rig. I knew that I had been super cautious to stay on my side and had never crossed the yellow, but the video made me look like I was trying to run every on-coming bike off of the road.

    He was on his side the whole time (3-4 minutes in) and I enjoyed the video very much... thanks for posting!. I've sold my MINI and moved to the west coast, so seeing the Dragon again probably isn't in my immediate future, but I wish it was.
