I apologize for the shaky video, my mount was loose and I didn't notice it until I watched the video.

we had a lot of fun in the Smoky's last week and of course, no trip is complete without at least one pass on the dragon.

we did the whole BRP and right there at the north end of it was the Skyline Drive so we had to see what it was about too.:ROFL:

I like that.
All looks familiar.
Just as a info-thing, not criticism, you can edit out a heck of a lot of camera shake with youtubes video enhancement settings.
I've used it on a few shaky roads and it definitely cleans them up. Won't necessarily totally remove the shakes, but can really tone it down.
FWIW

Seems to only shake when roll back on the throttle.......

Must be all that power......... Even the camera can't take it....

I'm jealous, I have rode the BRP for the last 2 years and I love it but it looks like I wont be able to ride it this year.

I love threads like this.

I seldom get East of New Mexico. All of this is foreign to me, and I love the photos.

I love the Parkway in the fog...... Gives it a mystique that is different than being in the mountains. Then 2 minutes later, Poof, Your back in the mountains.

Interesting how the terrain looks so much like Southern Oregon. Several of those views look like those we see here.

Thanks for posting the pics. I really like the North Carolina mountains. I try to get out there at least once each year to enjoy the roads and views.

Sorry I missed out meeting up with you ... maybe next time!!
