no good 989 video

I need to get a better cam with zoom well atlest you can hear how it sounds when you hit it at 2500 rpm. You cant see good enough to tell how hard it jumps.I have another with wheel up high but when i try to edit it for u tube it gets bad.Any way heres one you can atlest hear it lol.
If anyone knows how to get the other one better i will be happy to email a real player file of it.

I know the roads just ant long enough any more.
The only place I can really let her go is on the highway.
I have heard a lot of guys say that the accelerator pumps wont help.
I was reading your post on the Delphiforum and it sounds like you
got an improvement when whacking it open at lower rpm.
I have talked with Scctrim and he also says they help.
I am debating on trying them or not. I may wait till I get use to
all this new found power. Then try them to see if they add any thing.

I think I will give them a try because that low rpm bog when waking her open
is the only thing stopping her from doing a power wheelie.
I think I will do it tomorrow when I get home from work.
And then maybe I will be doing power wheelies by Thursday

Soundin' good! And I think you are riding what I think is the nicest color combo of any Bonnie .... the blue and white with red pinstripe (am I right?).

EDIT - no need to confirm ... I stopped the video. Love the looks of the bike, and she sounds good too!
