We did a little shock testing @buttonwillowraceway with the @bpr__racing #yamaha R9 last week in preparation for @motoamerica at Barber Motorsports Park! The guys enjoyed watching and listening to the footwork, suspension work, and sound of that triple! Coming in hot for Supersport this weekend! And don’t forget the discount codes in my previous post for MotoAmerica Live+ so you can see it all happen from your phone or computer!

165 MPH flat out at COTA. 🚀 You can’t capture this kind of speed and scale with a normal lens. We rigged up the @insta360motorcycling to the @aprilia_americas RSV4 during Aprilia Racer Day at @circuitoftheamericas , and the warp effect at 165 is completely insane. 👇 Could you hold the throttle wide open through here? Let me know in the comments! #insta360x5 #COTA #ApriliaRSV4 #TrackDay #Superbike
