So you might call me a stalker. I admire the work of BVG and a friend showed me a picture of him from the one show and it led to this thread. One thing led to another and i saw someone posted that Dead Pixels was his company. I noticed that a man associated to this company is a director of 44 Teeth! I then found this

The story fits with the succession of videos which Baron has posted. How unlucky!

Unfortunate for whoever it is. That article mentions a wife and baby but I was under the impression he and JoJo Benz were an item (basing that purely on my IG feed - so gospel truth then).



Either way, I despise his vlogs. To my ear he does an awful lot of talking but actually says very little.

His videos show his broken leg and having a baby and splitting up with his wife all a couple of years ago.

Firstly, Mike600f - please feel free to post pretty lady in leathers - for the other guys on here of course..

(that goes for anyone else who feels the need for a pervy pic.. of girls, not your own ball-bags please)

I've was in Ledenon, South of France last weekend - MENTAL track, got some footage (too much!) to look through and cut an edit together.. its basically 120mph blind crests in 38 degree heat.. I'm lucky to be alive!

As for lane discipline etc and swift progress in town. I agree, I'm afraid i have become a victim of complacency. 100 miles a day, 50 of which inside the M25 tend to make one a rather short tempered and hasty rider. BUT, the wide angle on the camera does make it look faster/closer than it is in reality.

Im sure i will get a thump one day, but then hopefully its just the metal that gets damaged and like you say - hopefully it will be captured on the social, silver screen that is the internet for all to waste their lunch breaks viewing

I'm off to New York on Wednesday and trying to get hold of a bike out there to do an NY City vlog! Should be quite entertaining/terrifying. Will be there for a while so don't know i'f i'll be able to bang one out before i go (ohh err...).

Thanks for your support, PH is by far the best reception i get on forums - I guess its the educated members that 'get' the humour rather than just slag it off!

Cheers

at least it wouldn't involve putting random phrases that have no meaning, like some sort of wacky 15 year old that wears a short sleeve top, under a long sleeve top, with a short sleeve top on top. spice world. jizz machine.

Ed China does that and is Legend.

If he is like his vlogs in real life then I'd imagine he is a bit of a . Gambling thing confirms my thoughts. Unsubscribed from his rants a while ago.

Doesn't work in town/below 40mph, needs to be going quick, crap throttle/fuelling at low revs, extreme riding position - seems Yamaha have built a Ducati sports bike

Lovely bit of kit though.

I know we are all different but if the riding position is poor/extreme then that ticks this bike off my "next bike list". The 1299 is at the top but I was hoping in the spring to get a test ride. Just hope it's not as bad as they say I was edging by bets that I would like the R1 as it's grown on me a lot since it came out.

I've not ridden the M verson but the normal R1 has plenty of room and felt exactly like my 2004 R1.

The 1299 has really wide bars and is a touch more comfortable than the new R1

They feel like a nice comfortable double bed after riding a Fireblade

You used gambling as a method of trimming your lawn?

I found the blade to be really comfy and having toured on it would be happy to get a bike that is as good for all day riding as well as a blast and TD.
