hig4s Posted July 7, 2010 Share #1 Posted July 7, 2010 I'm sure a few people have seen this before, but I just found out from a friend of Yellow Wolf's (the rider of the Goldwing) that he was testing a car tire off a mini cooper on the back of his Wing during this run and he ran about a 14 minute time, 3.5 minutes slower than his best on Metzeler bike tires.

Guest Swifty Posted July 7, 2010 Share #3 Posted July 7, 2010 "just found out from a friend"?...is this how legends start? I've seen him there too; impressive riding skills and a great demonstrator of what a Wing can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariner Fan Posted July 7, 2010 Share #4 Posted July 7, 2010 I've seen that video before. Just crazy how he throws the wing around. I did not know he was using a car tire though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen him there too; impressive riding skills and a great demonstrator of what a Wing can do. I may have worded that poorly, it was a friend of Yellow Wolf's, not mine. Actually it is the guy on the bike with the camera, he is on a Jeep forum I frequent. But Yellow Wolf is a legend!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hummingbird Posted July 8, 2010 Share #8 Posted July 8, 2010 So what's the camera guy riding? That's what I was wondering - The camera seems to be keeping up with the wing - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvester Posted July 8, 2010 Share #9 Posted July 8, 2010 A lot of peg scraping by both those bikes, very impressive riding. :clap2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tx2sturgis Posted July 8, 2010 Share #10 Posted July 8, 2010 I had no idea that beginners rode this slowly. I wonder how many bikes and cars are piled up on the following bike's tail? Jeeze...they need some track time to hone their skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slick97spirit Posted July 10, 2010 Share #11 Posted July 10, 2010 Those are the guys I want to avoid when I ride that road! IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeeze...they need some track time to hone their skills. They just took the training wheels off, and have not learned to shift from first gear. Gregg PS.
