    MBP Air Ride Video - Riding with Air - Need your opinion

    Im putting a video together with footage of a few bikes that are riding with the MBP Twin chamber Air Ride system. What i would like is your opinion of the type of still shots and vids that you would like to see eg riding corners, riding low / high, walk through with the system.

    Once i have the video finished i will post it up here.

    Your input is greatly appreciated.

    yeah, something that shows suspension action on a twisty road- show the same thing on a conventionally suspended bike and one with air ride.

    Great stuff guys, i am planning to put a swingarm mounted camera to show the system working, i will be also getting some action shots of bikes cornering. Like the idea for the convential shock bike and air ride bike will definatly be doing that one.

    Keep those ideas coming.

    Video shoot is on for this Saturday weather permitting, I have organised one of my customers riding his bike with a MBP Twin Chamber set up and i have my busa back in standard suspension for the cornering comparision as requested.
    Im also going to have more of a walk around of the system as well.

    Is there any thing specific that you would like to see in the Vid?

    After a few weekends of rain and some family commitments (christenings). Today we had great weather (its getting warmer, bring on summer), i shot some footage of comparision between standard suspension V air ride and air ride handling in corners. Im putting the vid together and will have it up in the next 2 days.

    Finally here it is, i have more footage from the day but this one shows my Busa (converted back to standard suspension for the day) and SWOOPS Busa with MBP front lowering kit and Total control twin chamber system going around some corners.

    Im looking at getting an onboard camera to show the system working while riding, but until then
