Buell Jump

[driftingswiftly]

So i do this jump fairly often, and to be honest this wasn't one of my best ones...but it was the best i could do through traffic while the cameras were rolling.http://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/2799_20091213172910_L.jpg

Still a nice one[up]Did you bottom out at all on the landing?

[driftingswiftly]

not on this one. Its a shallow gradiant so i had to be going like 60 or so to get this. I have gotten some really nice ones tho and yeah, i bottom out on those.

[Macbuell]

That is sweet. I have never thought about trying to find a place to get some air... :)

Discount Tire by me has a spot like that but in a parking lot. Feels sweet sliding through the air.

Only done it twice but still pretty cool.

Nice shoot!!!

[driftingswiftly]

this is a still from the video i am putting together.

[ramjr55]

AWESOME!! I'd never try it but AWSOME!!

[driftingswiftly]

Well this is what i grew up doing, so to be honest...a 60-70 mile an hr street jump that maxes out at about a foot of altitude is a walk in the park :D

Totally Tubular!

[screamineagle]

you guys are f ing crasy. I rode dirt bike up until last year and would never jump asphalt. Guess I have had to many wrecks. So is there a video to go with this or just a still shot.

[driftingswiftly]

oh, i've had my share of wrecks to :D thats what keeps it real. Yes, there is a video that I will be finishing VERY soon! Hoping within the next day or so. Keep an eye out.

Cool jump, looks like you might need a Uly. Puts my little jumping in Wales in a dirt pit to shame. And I thought I was cool. Thanks for bursting my bubble.

I live in PA. I do this on every pot hole and back road I can find. They do not smooth out bumps here. Impressive air though!

[BuddhaBuell]

looks like what I do to 'speedbumps' in parking lots....
they are there to catch air off of.....right?
:D
