I'm at my folks house for the weekend for my sister's wedding.
Had to drive the cage.
I miss my VFR.

Here's my tribute.

(its best with the sound up)
#2
That was freakin' awesome!

Very nice work.
#3
Dude I love that! Freakin awesome.
only one thing I love more than the sound of a v4 and that would be 2 :fing02:
#4
Embedded for you! Great sound clip! I agree with the volume needing to be up, but I think hovering the mouse over the 12 second spot and clicking repeatedly works well too! :biggrin:
#5
ps - not that I want to reveal my youth here, but who's the band?

It would be Journey you whipper-snapper. And that would also be me in that clip with Achfly.

VERY cool clip Andy. It turned out awesome!

Anything wrong with 02s as long as the recalls have been done? It was the first year for V-Tec. Any quirks?

Got the raw file? Would love to have that wav, as my P.C. turns on.

I'm glad you guys picked up on the part I really like. Another day in that same area I wanted to get some still shots of sPOTO and it just sounded so cool to hear that V4 echoing off the trees and mountains as he came up the hill.

I'm supposed to be outside cleaning up the reception :blush: but I was curious to see if anybody liked it. I'll have to post the file with out music on monday. Oh, Riv, I'll see about getting you the file. PM me jor email.
#17
That just plain and simply KICKED A$$ !

By then I was married and had most of my masters degree completed! When I was in Junior High we danced to Tommy James and the Shondells "Crystal Blue Persuasion. We celebrated the first "Earth Day" and Nixon was a first term president. Man how did I get so old!

Well, I was probably in kindergarten... heh, heh, heh... not to worry though - I'm not completely out of touch. I'm a big Led Zep fan along with others, and I've got some ideas for Zeppelin -fired vids... :fing02:

Nice work there Achfly and sPOTO, great to see the SaltLake crowd posting the good shite. Time to meet up in Cedar City and ride the 12 dont cha's think??
Riv, I cant pull up your clip for some reason, what am I doing wrong??..................with the video :biggrin:
#31
That is soooo freakin' cool! Terrific job! Played it many times and it still gives me the chills. Sweet VFR sound as you approach the camera as well as after you are moving away from it. Great caption. I also would like the VFR-only audio file for my PC if you would be so kind to post it. I think you definitely have an advertisement here for Honda.

umm yeah. Next weekend perhaps? or second weekend in Oct. See what toddolu is up to. Sad Sad Sad that I had to bring the cage. I'm in hurricane right now! I actually have enough luggage that I could have brought the viffer but time constraints required taking the slab anyway. Oh and my wife's keroke machine might have been a bit unstable on top of the top case. :warranty:

Sounds like me. I got married at 23, while doing my masters, had our first kid at 25, and built our first house a few months later. Six months after that, I was in charge of 20 staff.





Bikes....

Oh yeah.
It was a beautiful weekend here, especially yesterday, which was warm, sunny and clear, with no wind. Saw several guys from up the road ride past: CBR1000RR, GSXR1000, an MV Agusta 1000 and an '07 VFR, while I was washing the house, the front patio, the guttering....
I *did* get to start the VFR on Saturday, after nearly 6 weeks of it just sitting there. I was really impressed that it started immediately, no drama, and settled down into a nice even idle. It's about the longest I've ever not ridden it.
I had planned to ride to work today, as the WifeAccountantPorcupineSpousalUnit decided she needed her car to go out at lunchtime, but then she decided the bus would do, as it was drizzling.

She wondered why I was so grumpy...

Roll on Friday, when she needs the car again. :comp13:

Here's a picture that's got nothing to do with bikes, apart from it being the reason I haven't ridden in so long:

Damn I had no idea that my Viffer sounded like that! :biggrin: ! Damn I miss my viffer.

Nice video! I love the first 10 second suspense. The first time I was watching it I was thinking; what a heck is going on? And then suddenly two VFRs zoomed by. Awesome. :fing02:

Oh man!!! That is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for bumping the post. Missed it the first time around somehow.

I agree, phatpat33, I thought it sounded exactly like a stock car race. That was my first thought......

Truely awesome. I think I have listen to that 25 times and still brings chills down my neck. Just like the Blue Angels.

Thanks for the morale booster.
#59
I want to hear this w/o music too i thought that was in the works. :cool: It vibrates my floor and desk when your approaching the cam.(10" sub) :happy: Who's gonna set up their HD camera for a shot/sound clip like this during the VFRD summit in CO?Hearing 30 Viffers rumbling up a mountain pass would definitely make my day...or even life. :idea3:
