Yamaha R1 VS Lots Of Traffic On The Nordschleife! (30-4-23)

(30-4-23) Was a busy day at the Nordschleife. After the whole track was closed for 2 hours it finally opened up again. So I went for some laps. But unfortunately not a pb attempt. But it was still fun to ride and learn more about the track!
SIDE NOTE: (The laptimer is that people can see that my video is NOT fast forwarded. Not for speed time recording*)
Will be back soon!
Bike: Yamaha R1 2021
Exhaust: Full Akrapovic evolution line
Brakes: Brembo M4 brake calipers with RCS19 Brake pump.

210 and casually putting a timer on. Incredible driving man.

[@MACRONOne]

ok

[@weed46]

It's actually easier than doing at 30kph. Motorcycles the faster they go, the more stable they are. Unless you hit something in front of you, over 200kph is almost impossible to crash out of a Motorcycle, it's incredibly stiff at those speed due to huge giroscopic effect.

[@Vova3iLvova]

to slow to realize he is recording and timing it is redundant.

[@icecold428]

the timing isnt for him lol. He clearly states in the description that its to show he isn't speeding up the video@@Vova3iLvova

[@Vova3iLvova]

oh, i see. but taking a hand off the bike mid corner going 200 to prove to strangers on the internet you arent speeding up the video is weird

[@GermanFr34k]

The shots taken by the photographs look sick as hell

[@gopnikolai7483]

Maybe i'm overexaggerating but i think i'll tear up a bit if I ever have a photo like that lmao. Ripping past people on a track on a CBR is my dream, hopefully not long off, now.

Its not like a BMW driver to think he owns the road!😉

[@vinc-enzo]

Well done, enough safety margin by still being superfast 👌 The only risk I personally would not have taken was the overtake in Adenau at 3:00 because it's a difficult turn with no visibility especially for car drivers who are not expert, I don't know how was your impression on the bike. But of course it's just my humble opinion, everything was properly done!

[@and99kurland7]

He moved over giving way

[@matvrak5977]

I def agree, I wouldn't have taken many of the overtakes anyway cause I'm not nearly as skilled. However that one was pretty risky either way!

[@ikbendusan]

agreed

[@philipbeens1021]

Those R1 ‘ s sound so cool . Fantastic riding !

[@harorider96]

I have the MT-10 and am addicted to the sound

This is insane, I’ve never seen a bike actually getting it on the ring so this is sick👏👏👏

[@sjv6598]

Search Andy Carlisle. He does the ring in 7:10.

[@Hammerback972]

Check out Misha Charouden. On his channel a guy, said to be the best in the world on a bike, on this track, runs the course. If hes actually that good, i dont know. Worth a look though.

[@yourDecisi0n]

You could install a small audio recorder or microphone above the rear tyre to limit wind noises, this would also place the microphone near the exhaust giving it a crisp sound. Note though, to set a small gain to avoid audio clipping because of the loud exhaust. Also direct the microphone towards the general direction of the exhaust. The audio can later be synced to the footage in post when either engaging first gear or by weirdly clapping your hands in public

[@alexbergsland]

Or just behind the wind screen, that would mean more sound from the intake as well. I have not tried it, maybe there is too much wind there. In my Superseven I usually use an external mic on the GoPro and put the mic in the passenger seat, no wind and a lot of engine sound.

[@yourDecisi0n]

@@alexbergsland The windscreen could be too noisy, but this highly depends on the windscreen and how airtight it is. I mean, even helmets are very noisy and our ears are far less sensible than most microphones. But I guess, it's often a hit-or-miss situation. Therefore the best thing you can do is to try things out

[@alexbergsland]

Agreed! @@yourDecisi0n

[@future62]

Best place for a mic is in the cargo compartment.

[@yourDecisi0n]

​@@future62 No, not really. This will dampen the sound, which therefore has a negative effect on the sound quality. Sound is best recorded directly into the microphone. So, even the direction of the microphone and distance to the sound source (not too far away, but also not too close to it) make a big enough difference to consider. The microphone should be place a few centimeters away from the source, even sometimes a bit further, because microphones are indeed very sensitive. It should be directed at the source and best be openly place. Furthermore, the microphone should have a furry microphone cover, in case there is still some wind picked up by the microphone. Normally, because the exhaust on bikes is so loud, some of the tips can be vaguely followed as the sound pickup is enough in many other places as well. So, the best thing is to try stuff out and see what works best for you. I would still advice against putting the microphone into the cargo compartment

[@kenchao95]

dude ur fucking fast great driving skills

[@Crouchy92]

This shows how much faster a litre sports bike is compared to your average car, even if that car is faster than average. Impressive driving!!

[@Sturmovik1946]

It helps when your p/w ratio is off the charts, plus you actually have to be a good rider. Driving isn't as hard by comparison.

[@RazorBrain1]

Yup. I went from a 110hp 550lb bike to a s1000rr at over 200hp and like 450lb which is an absolutely insane difference. I wish there was a track like this nearby because it's pointless on the road. I can go to jail on any road without leaving 1st gear. Which is about 90mph. Still worth every penny.

[@Thatmotodude]

These camera settings make the video soo lively and entertaining to watch😮‍💨💫😭💯💯💯

Did you speed on the last straight after the yellow? Because i wanted to see how fast the bike would be catching up and passing cars

[@mikexhi287]

Big balls, big deathwish, big skill. Mad respect 🙏🏻

[@L3v3LLIP]

Deathwish would be doing this on public roads, its a closed circuit with traffic rules lol Motorcycle deaths on the nordschleife are about as common as on public roads. Probably less than some spots around the track, the Eifel is a small motorcycle paradise after all.

[@raymondcarter4335]

Nice riding, looks like fun

[@justamko-6480]

Damn!🔥

[@timlong1462]

Incredibly impressive. I would be far too scared to ride this fast through traffic even if I had the skill. I've seen many ring videos where drivers don't even see large cars preparing to overtake let alone a motorcycle that has incredible acceleration capabilities.

Very fun video to watch!! Keep it up man, I love the sound your R1 makes it so good. Better mic on the go pro would be better but that's your choice ofcourse.

[@ryndrssn]

that's a lot of wind noise, try strapping a pouch on your waist or your right knee and place the phone inside it and record the audio with your phone's built in audio recorder. iPhone has the highest quality recording app if you have iPhone (lossless) and some android has great recorder too. Anyway, great riding, takes big balls to do that on the Nürburgring!

People who have never ridden a motorcycle cannot comprehend just how insanely quick they are. This is a great example how fast this guy can go 250kmh even if there is only a short straight for him to go all out.

Amazing ride man. I'm planning on getting a Ninja 400 as my first bike and I've seen plenty of videos that say a 600cc bike like the R6 is literally all the bike you will ever need.

[@wernerxldata]

Nice ride 👊 Pretty crowded lap indeed. Got the feeling you were not already at a 100% in means of speed, looked really controlled. Funny to see it from this view, but most cars are so freakin slow. You really need a expensive ride to be a little competitive compared to motorcycles. Even a production (relatively heavy weighted, bad suspension and lower power) 600 can compete with lots of 'sportive' cars. You can buy a pretty competitive bike second hand for just a few thousand euros.

[@RealPyro88]

But in turn bikes are much much more difficult to be fast, so it evens out. Theres also a bigger fear-factor with bikes, that is if you want to live atleast

[@wernerxldata]

@@RealPyro88 Yeah, you're right, the risk is much higher, especially in traffic like here

Impressive. I'm spoiled by the tracks in California, every place I rode flat out had wide open areas if you went off track. The barriers look OK for cars but I wouldn't want to slide into one.
