Riding in Vermont on my YG200-8 200cc Motard

I made a vid of some mixed riding on my YG200-8.

VIDEO Link:

It was recorded with a camera phone so unfortunately the resolution and the viewing angle could use some improvement. I'll get a better camera when I can.

The street tires have their limitations but they perform well enough. There's only one section at the bottom of a trail which is somewhat washed out where I need to pay special attention to the line I choose. Looking forward to seeing how much better it is with dirt tires sometime.

Thanks for the ride-along. Ok, how did you do that? Did you duct tape a phone to your helmet?

Pink Floyd was a nice touch. Who was the group with the female singer? It sounded like Evanescence.

Thanks for checking it out!

Yep, Evanescence...

You called it, I taped a bracket to my helmet and then the phone to that

It sure worked. I don't have a decent camera yet, so I bought a cheap digi camera mount on eBay. It mounts to the handlebar, and that allows me to screw any digi camera to it. The bonus is that I can see the view screen for aiming. It works for now.

Great pic. Vermont is one of the most beautiful parts of the US.

cool vid...whats the name of the first song on the vid?

Hey man, thanks for checkin out the vid.

Not sure why anyone would want to spend 15 min watchin me ride around, but I do like those kind of vids myself so there it is.

The first track is from dubstep remixers Mt Eden, and is named "Beautiful Lies"
