    now THAT looked like fun... However the title is misleading... Based on the instruments, it's NOT a 2009 VFR800, but it was taken in 2009 while on a 5th Gen VFR800... lol

    Still would be an AWESOME experiment.

    That looked incredible. Thanks for posting! A great ride, and he/she showed what the VFR can do. I especially liked the part when they passed the Ferrari, then Porsche, then Mini-Van. Hold-up, back up, Mini-Van? Where they filming the next Family Vacation movie? Look kids, the Great Wall, Berlin, Nurburgring!

    Thanks again for posting, I really enjoyed it, and hope someday to experience that for myself.

    I love the turn signals to pass... they got their crap together over there. I wish I lived next to that track, then again maybe not.

    IIRC, Nurburgring is actually used by civilian traffic on certain sections as opposed to it ALWAYS being nothing more than a race track... so that explains some of the civilian traffic... i.e. Mini Van, etc...

    Although it would be interesting to see a bunch of mini-vans race the track. How many times could you get the van on 2 wheels and still maintain control?

    I taught him well. Damned I wished I could ride like that. But there were a few times he could have given her more. There was room on the throttle and from what I could see on the speedo, there was room there too. But no way that was a 2009. I doubt it was even a 6th gen cause the speedo was not digital. Could be wrong.

    Several years ago, Top Gear, a British motor show did this at the ring. Watch as she passes a 'slow' bike.
