60 minutes.

And considering what they had to work with, pretty good.
He didn't have a hair and makeup van OR a film crew following AND he was going for a record, so it was amazing in itself that there was anything much to work with.

It is definitely a professional video, just the they didn't have 100 hours of raw footage to work with, is all I'm saying.

Nick probably would have got the record, if it was not for the filming etc.

The only disappointment for me was no acknowledgment of Roberto and Chadx.

I think Roberto deserved a bit of a mention, since he did go out of his way a bit to meet up with him and help out a bit.

On the other hand, it is a video, and if he didn't get video I suppose it may have been passed over.

My favorite though is the the "Life on the edge". It has a lot of stuff in it.

All the vids are 60 minutes by the way.

Only flipped through the book so far. so I can't tell you much about that.

Not even a GPS - at least not in the pics I saw. Anyway, ask him yourself!

looked at the bike at the NEC show in Birmingham (and bought a 3 DVD plus book package for £20!). Has non Yam heated grips, with a controller on the bar mount and Touratech bags. I spoke to Nick, he couldn't speak highly enough of the S10, I know he is sponsored by Yam but he is a sincere (and really tough) guy. Last year I discussed my trans Canada trip planning with him and he, and his team gave me loads of advice as to how they prepared their XT660s.

Oooo my first post. Found the site when I was searching for power distribution for my new S10.
Anyway the reason for commenting is that it was Nick Sanders ride on the S10 that made me sit up and take note of the S10. I have an 1150GS and I was all out for buying a new 1200GS Adventure.... but everyone does that, so wanted something different.
Read about in the UK motorcycle press and then saw the actual S10 at the UK Motorcycle Live show. It looked fab... I spoke to one of the UK area sales reps..... he told me which dealers had one and the next day I ordered one.
That was a week ago and I pick it up tomorrow! ::003:: Ooooo I can't wait and all because of Nick Sanders.

Sounds good! I agree about Roberto though..he could have at least mentined him in the credits.
