Ok, ok... here it is. Released exclusively to the BOF members! I know the quality is not as good as it can be, but it will have to do for now until I can play around with the various conversion settings.
A few notes on the videos:
1. The on-board track video was recorded while we were doing some data logging, so the focus on the track was getting good data, not setting record times. We were also doing at most 3 laps back to back (out lap, 1 complete lap, in lap) in order to check that we were getting the data we needed. Therefore, all of the laps were done at a 80-90% pace. The speedo is close, but not really calibrated to the rear wheel/tire/sprocket combo we were experimenting with at the time. The board at the start says "B" because it was a light trackday and they were running A and B group together. I don't apex turn 1 because it's track etiquette.
2. I am the rider in both videos, and as much as I'd like to believe otherwise, I'm not a professional racer. There is no doubt that only a pro will be able to extract the maximum performance from a bike like this. I love riding it though!
3. For the road test - This is a road I am intimately familiar with as we used to test Ariel Atoms up this same stretch of road. I know the traffic patterns and even some of the few people that live along this road. This was a one-time test to justify the 3.5 hour drive to the test track. At the beginning of the clip, I pass a truck on a double-yellow. Shame on me, but you'll notice I line up on the trucks left and gain a full view of the road ahead through the corner before passing. The double yellow breaks at the next bend.
Ok.. without further ado...
