New V85TT Video

[Dave Swanson]

This V85TT video was just published on 6/9 so I hope it is new for most of you.  It features Ewan McGregor riding the V85.    It is less than 2 minutes long.

Not just you.  I like it also.  Unlike all the other V85 vids Ewan is  riding it with some real spirit in the rough stuff.  I am willing to bet Ewan is doing the  riding and not a stunt double.

The new issue of BIKE from the UK came today.  The V85TT is all that and a bag of chips!

OPPS.  Not BIKE.  It was Motorcycle Sport and Leisure magazine.

Cool!  A Jedi Knight and a tune nicked from JJ Cale!

I really like that presentation and concept.
Also thanks to whoever was riding the bike, because it wasn’t Ewan.

I gotta get one of those helmets as it makes you look much slimmer when riding in the dirt!  Still not bad and I can't wait for mine to show up someday (the bike not the helmet).

Aw man!  Now I feel like a little kid that was told there is no Santa Claus

He's a cool dude with offroad cred.  I think that he hits the right vibe for this bike and the target audience.  When they were testing the KTM's before the Long Way Around film, Ewan was making some pretty good moves on those bikes.  They were much more like this V85 than were the big Beemers they ended up on.  So, at least 15 years ago, I think he had the chops to make moves like we saw in that clip.  Maybe he has kept up his skill level.

Its probably got less to do with can Ewan ride in that manner and more if his management or the management of whatever project he is currently working on would let him take the risk for a two minute youtube add for a very small motorcycle company no one has heard of.

Well done video, and good choice of background music.   

[Turin]

That was great!
