3:13 Sure, I'll take it off at the top!
😂
🤣
You've made my miserable Monday so much better, Fagans arse filling up my 55" TV in the living room is something to behold!
Gave the camera knobber a good ignoring. Good lad!
I wonder why it's not allowed, doesn't make much sense does it?
could be a safety thing, something to catch on the kerb and twist your neck.
@@RiderZoneCC Oh he crashed. He would have survived if it wasn't for his GroPro.. /s
@@Nexus-6 Micheal Schumacher was wearing a gopro on his helmet and it was punched through the helmet and damaged his brain. So yeah, best not on the lid itself.
What happened to choice? End of the day racing itself is dangerous and you could die. So why worry about an f’in camera. If it’s about injuring other ppl that haven’t made that choice then I’m certain the helmet itself will do more damage, HSE bollox. If your allowed to chose to risk your life racing why can’t you choose to wear a camera, calculated risk in my opinion.
"We've got some badass cars here.... then we have some mx-5's", I lost it lmao.
never mind that you can get impaled by the numerous trees, guardrails and your bike itself, but God forbid you wear a plastic little camera on the strongest part of your safety kit. I see the nanny state is in full swing in the UK as well.
Ian Derzsi Yeah, screw that guy!
Without fail every amateur motorsports event you go to there is always some grumpy old coot trying to spoil everyones fun by being a raging pedant. They have sad boring lives so they volunteer to be marshals just to feel like they have a bit of power over other people.
Jeff Symons yeah, better no one volunteers.
@@mosca3289 Nah, don't know how you took that from what I wrote. Grassroots motorsports needs volunteers to survive. Just that it doesn't need old cranks who hate everything and want to boss people around for the hell of it.
@@jeffsymons7084 that guy was the chief ACU scrutineer. It's the ACU rules that state you cannot wear a camera on the person. Just doing his job so that the event still gets approval from ACU every year.
Something about the noise of a 2 stroke being spanked up a hill climb just sits right with me. Another cracking video boys.
I guess the Baron is too scared to do the ACU test?! What a bell...😂😂😂
Two things about Gary:
1. Legend has it he was born with a beer in his left hand
2. He's an absolute mensch.
Thanks for making my rainy day so much better!!!!
Love Jersey as well, been going with the family since I was in primary. Always try and watch the hill climb when I'm over if I can, good day out!
Fagan you are pure class. Awesome keep the vids coming please. 😃😃😃😃😃
Tks for showcasing something a bit different. Proper job 👌
Great stuff Al! Looks like a great little event with awesome atmosphere at a beautiful place.
I love the music for every video , it really is spot on along with the editing
Totally awesome, love this man! Looks like so much fun. I need a Supermoto ,dang it !
Great video. Looked really challenging but a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing 🙌🙌
Definitely the best motorcycle TH-cam channel in existence!!!
Great to see new riders & drivers tackling the hill! Needed to keep more to the left on entry to Radio, you made the corner quite tight! Good time for your first visit!
Well done Al! Looks like a blast!
Looks mint! Did a few hill climbs in cars and they really get under your skin. Cheapest motorsports by far. Nice one.
Great day out,love the after race beer and a chat,nice one lads 👍
This is good fun stuff.Thks for making it entertaining.
Awesome video, 44Teeth is the go to motorcycle video channel allways.
Awesome to see you in my island ripping up the roads, Bouley bay was the first place i ever rode a bike to with my brother!
Good to see the vids coming again
No 42 at the start - epic slide control 👍 - Top video as usual - well done 44T
As much as I love being on a track I find racing hill climb so much more addictive.
Looks like a great time .... and place!!
What a wholesome, enduring stiffie.
Top10 of my proudest.
Ur up there with the best, Al.
Found out I’m having a baby - turns out I’m the jizz machine.
Awesome work as usual boys.
Love to have a go at hill climbing - looks great fun😎🤘👍
Ah yes. The boys and a couple of pints. Best kind. Enjoyed this.
Thanks Fagan, really enjoyed this. Looked like you were going for it and did really well mate 😎👌
Honestly you guys have the most rad content. That must of been one hell of a time.
love the pub on the start line
Nice one, Gary is a legend by the way !
Take it off, what an utter Bell End😂😂
Great vid... looks a great challenge
Thanks for the excellent videos, they’ve kept me sane while recovering from a broken foot so I’ve been stuck indoors 😏
Get well soon Jeff 👊🏼
Curious if you finally took that camera off when you uploaded the footage? That dude's gonna be pissed if he finds out you didn't.
Thank you for the trip on a hill climb with your beautiful ktm
The first thing i will do when the snow melts here in sweden is to mount an pcv on mu -19 and get a proper broad band lambda mapping of the bike. 15-44 and a fuel dongle helped a little but mapping is a must if you want low end grunt.
Camera man did a good job on this one. Smashed the edit too.
Hi guys. Just wanted to say that I love your channel.
Looks great fun 🏍💨💨💨
Holy shit, 44teeth on the rock!! Yeah, it's 40 mph everywhere. We all stick religiously to that...
We could not use cameras last year in Enduros, on any part of our body, but if you mount them on the bars, the handguards are a decent place, and it's a surprisingly good pic from there. Not too bouncy!
BRAP BRAAAAP! 🤘🏻
This is brilliant.👌
Great piece. Maybe you should do some more that are local to you, Hartland Quay, Wiscombe or Gurston. Be much cheaper too. Maybe some sprinting too on a sportsbike.
You'd go well on that thing at the Cliffhanger Hillclimb!
That was fun !
Nice one Fagan 👍
I`m not surprised he found it hard to adjust to the 690. I was and still am a fan of singles and among others had three versions of KTM supermotos incl. the 690 SM, the duke etc. I think there`s something about the fuelling that`s not quite right because the 690 motor is powerful but doesn`t feel as tractable as, say the Suzuki 400SM. Where my dynojetted carbed 400SM could be abused to the limit at any opportunity with utter glee, the KTM always felt a bit disconnected at the throttle. I`d go as far as to say that this is a theme very common in modern bikes- FI plus strangling emission regs don`t often add up to a good throttle opening feel. Anyone who`s spent extra money on dyno work, PC etc. will know what I mean. It`s a shame because if the manufacturers would spend the money on perfecting their ONE fuel map instead of offering three crap ones( aka `riding modes`), everyone would be better off imo :) In a way, the 690 is reminiscent of the Yamaha MT09 effort, looking great on paper, light as a feather, big power and torque, mentalist riding position BUT awkward throttle feel and power delivery. I was measuring the MT09 unit against the street triple I had before and where the Triumph motor was sweet as a nut, the Yam unit felt like a salad with way too much vinegar. It`s when manufacturers look to target people new to biking who, bless, don`t know what to expect but get fed some marketing blurb and photos of lifestyle ninjas on bikes and such, just to be willing to put up with bad throttle map, ultra basic suspension, unproven chassis and other bad eggs. Beware of the Juggernaught :)
That was sweet, be interesting to see it on some different bikes
Get it. Some SM action.
Some nice lines.
You need to come try the Guernsey hill too! 👊✊️
Fagan with the forward leg dangle 👍
Just bought one of these, pick it up in a few days.. SM rider for many years now, love them but hate how slow they are.. thought id get this thumper nd have best of both worlds.. still have my doubts it will be fast enough to scare me.... but this video kinda shows, its pretty quick
Looks like the nice part of Jersey, away from the turnpike
Great video
Highside hartshawn nearly did it again!
new jersey looks nice
There should be more Garry in 44t vids. Legend
Are there small hill climbs like this in the US, or are they banned?
What times were some of the guys on the tricked out motards doing? Looks like a blast.
You guys across the pond do the coolest shit...us Yanks have been de-nutted. Cant do anything without some jackass suing somebody or getting upset cause the kids are have fun and making noise. Thanks for keep the manhood alive...
Looks like some craic
Hello! What camera was the video shot at 0:03?
Fagan, you should go up to a (ironically)44 tooth sprocket. Made a nice difference on my SMCR
What times were the top guys doing?
It's really boring.... No? (Sarcastic)😆😆
Beautiful place 👍🏻
foot out, or knee down? what's fastest?
The 790 responds to hill climbing with relaxed ease-full snoring sounds . . . must be doing something right. I hope other manufacturers market “small” displacement bikes with the same sophistication. We need new / better / more practical indicators of performance than “big ‘n shiny is better”.
Fagan why do you use mode 1?? 😝 i think the tc will kick in to much. Btw nice ride 🤟🏻
Can somebody please explain what all this leg dangling does for a benefit,,,,,,( superbike road rider of 20 years) thanx
5:30 I wouldn't ride down a hille like that with engine off on my bike, isn't some part of the gearbox still spinning without oil?
Thanks for leaving the camera on haha
Makes you feel quite seasick watching thet mah luv eh!?
Great fun, has Chris given up on 44 teeth, seems AL is carrying the show at the moment. Nice video and little chat at the end.👍👍
Improvement I’d say...!
I’m full-time 44T. Chris has a proper job that actually pays 😂
44Teeth Long live Fagan! ✊🏻
This is something I want to try
You should have a bash at the guernsey one too, very similar.
Guernsey is the poor mans jersey.
@@adamrichardoleary6000 I've never actually been to Jersey, but i have been to guernsey a handful of times. If Guernsey is for the poor man i can't imagine how rich they are in Jersey!
Come to Jersey next time for sure!
Love it,
AL get a can on it and lets see some more spankings loving the 690 vids
Best place in the world. I made it into a 44T vid. Great work, and good times Al. What will be the bike next year? 🤔
A proper supermoto!
2:22 Ooooer, missis!
We all pretend when were on a twisty back road but this looks technical as hell. Looks like I need to find a way to make travel to this tax deductible.
If there was one thing that could tempt me into moving to the UK it would be the myriad of different motoring events that exist there.
Enjoyed that. But beer in plastic 😭
Can't have that camera on! Yeah, sure thing jobsworth.
Didn`t know Pub Landlord did hill climbing...
😂😂😂👍
That Skoda 100 R lookt the part ;-)
Not sure what the problem with the camera is? Think they used to stop you on track days. In case they came off, and maybe injuring someone I guess .
But on the hill climb, it's only you there. Give someone a high viz vest and a lanyard = power trip 😂
Tried that at jersey myself .
That is the last flattering camera angle at the first few minutes of this.
Thankfully you 'forgot' to take the camera off Al - so we all get to enjoy the climb :-)
I would love to do this on my SMC
Top bloke Gary 👍
Everyone needs a Gary in their life
Adam G especially me
44Teeth and me....
when the bike goes and at the first-person cam, I find myself unconsciously leaning to left and right in my seat...
