The "I just saw a...." thread

[Matra et Alpine]

NO, the SMOOTHEST acceleration going, gear change every 1-2 seconds

Motorbike sequential gearchanges and VERY low intertia ( almost NO flywheel ) so VERY fast, slick changes.

Will try to fnd IoM recording, one of us did get it !!

'Net gives an idea .... http://www.vintagebike.co.uk/Sounds/...Honda%2050.mp3 though as it's mostly coming down the box for a corner and not a lot of the accelreation away ... yes it DOES sound a little stuttery. MY memory is of the sweetness UP the box

If you google for ducati slipper clutch you'll hear one of the most horrible sounds at a race circuit
Now THAT is rattly, most of the time at IoM you're convinced it's broken

EDIT: ACtually for some historically great bike sounds ... http://www.vintagebike.co.uk/Sounds.htm is quite good Also the honda.jp museum has all their race bikes too
