Tmp, does anyone know who was taking pictures on the infield Sept !5?

I'll gladly pay for some good photos too! Infield photographer, don't be shy, reveal yourself!
 
I have a number of photos from that day - but I was not in the infield.

Here is one. I will try to make the rest available when I have some time over the weekend.....

That's the guy on the RSV4 we were talking about that was so hard to pass because of his random lines/speeds in the corners, but a monster of a bike on the straight away. Here is "someone" setting him up for an inside pass down the front straight ;)

But in the afternoon he was way way better :)

"Someone's" full day is up, will have to pick through and look for yourself! Name the times you show up and "someone" can cut out those sections and put it together for ya.

[video=youtube;BAuNGVk2nZA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAuNGVk2nZA[/video]

Watch for the run into grass around the 20min mark. Stupid brakes :( I think this winter he'll throw at it: new steering head bearings, new wheel bearings and new rotors (probably mikeymoto), see if that solves it :(

From memory he doesn't remember seeing you out on the track at all, don't think he passed you or you passed him. I guess that's what happens when you're running almost identical lap times :(
 
No, I particularly sucked on that day probably more than any other day in the season, so we couldn't have been running identical lap times. I never even got close to my usual (not even fastest) pace. As it is also evident in the video. So, dear nice "somebody", could you please cut off a hi-res 1 minute long clip from 43:00 to 44:00 and PM me the unlisted link? That's me, wobbling and falling in the corners, something I mentioned here. Bike was extremely unstable mid corner and destroyed my confidence, totally unenjoyable day for me. Very ashamed to see myself in your video, and I'll go to bed in tears now.

Done, unlisted 1080p youtube link sent in PM, with link to download the original footage (looks way better than on youtube).

Also, if anyone cares to look at the same section of video (starting just before 43:00) and fathom a guess at the braking problem? The camera mount rotates left and right during the shudder, so it makes it look like the bars are shaking side to side but it doesn't really do that much if at all, just a bad bad shudder. Suspension is nowhere near bottoming out at the time, only does it if say braking with more than approx 50 percent force. Think it's rotors? It's on OEM ones now, 15,000km's. It's done it since the very first time the bike was tracked, new pads, lines, fluid, master cylinder, tires, still does it.

Thanks.

Footage downloaded, thanks a lot! Wish I could tell you what's wrong with your shudder. I usually brake hard (not in your video apprently), and the rear tire is doing a number of little stoppies while braking, but I never get anything like the thing you do, even if it starts to come around a little bit.
