I didn't watch the vids...sorry but they were just too slow to dl. But typically I prefer music with no sound effects, and sometimes the sound of the bike, a bit. Sound effects are like cheap fade methods for video in the 70's. Cool for the first time but past that not much fun anymore. :)

Actually some of them were pretty cool and added a little to the video. Some of them seemed out of place and should probably go. I wouldn't use each of those sounds more than once or twice.

Nice job though. Do you use Adobe Premier?

Since I had already watched the movies, they look look and sound totally ******** with the sound effects. I think you should just ride and forget about the whole video thing.
