Just copy the embed code from YouTube (look on the right side of the screen). It will also allow you to set the resolution and some other options.

Thanks Shane!! I copied the embed code, but it just showed up as html text. I guess I suck at the internet. =(

Again, great job Sal.
Mike, nice job on the video. I hate to be a stickler, but shouldn't you say, "Fastest NA ZX12 on the planet - in the mile"? I know at least 2 NA ZX12 owners who might appreciate it.

quote:Although we did not participate in the unholy speed orgy that was Loring, where everyone picked up 15-18+mph over their typical 1 mile speeds, we did have the honor of competing against the faster of the two NA 12's you're refering to, on the same day, same conditions, same place. Not just once, but twice. We did so in Texas and just recently in Miami.
Both times, this 12 came out the clear and undisputed victor.... By a considerable margin.
You know the saying, "If you wanna BE the man, you've got to BEAT the man." This couldn't be more true than in the sport of LSR where records are not always set by the fastest bikes, but rather the fastest conditions.
All due respect to Karl, Doug, and Jim, they are great guys with really REALLY fast bikes... But this one is significantly faster on any given day and I don't think you'll hear any of them argue that fact.
All "technicalities" aside, this IS the Fastest Naturally Aspirated Kawasaki on the Planet and has earned that distinction in the most conclusive way possible.

Yeah, I guess it kinda struck a nerve at the moment. I've been extremely irritable the last couple days, I caught a nasty flu for the second time this month. I'm not a happy camper to say the least.
No excuses, just took the gloves off for a second when maybe I shouldn't have, so for that I give you, any anyone I may have offended my sincerest appologies.
With that being said, let me also appologize in advance for the epic buttkicking you will recieve next time we meet. =)
thanks for being cool about it.
Your kawasaki brother in arms,
- Mike

Sure, it's all understood, but until you go faster, you're not the fastest. Probably if Ace was there they would have gone faster. But if someone were to ask: "What's the fastest a NA ZX12 has ever gone in a LSR meet?" the answer would have to be 222. Just like if someone asks Scott Guthrie or Shane Stubbs, what's the fastest an open streetbike has ever been at an LSR meet, it would be 265.4 at Elvington. Not 265.0 at Loring. No disrespect at all, it's just the way things go.

Dean, you were in Miami...you saw both bikes run.
I guess by the same logic, Shane's "211mph" stock motor 14 is equally as fast as Dale's 212mph 12R. I wouldn't put water in that bucket...
But that's neither here nor there. You've made your point, I feel that I've made mine. I respect your opinion and perspective. Thanks for sharing.
