• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Some video from my ride to Spyderfest. Video from some of the riding around Spyderfest coming soon.

Your handlebars look like they are slightly turned to the right while your going straight down the road?
Is it just the camera angle?

Anyway nice Vblog.

Bob
 
Thanks.

Yeah, just an affect of the gopro lens I guess.
She's been laser aligned so she tracks straight down the road.
 
Watch out Bob/Finless. You may very well have a "video competitor". <smiles> Nice job on this video and thanks.

I know! He even has the Sena BT backpack like I do!

I am scared ;)

Kidding of course, the more the merrier.... It would be fun to see more people doing this!


So revjvegas, how did you mount your GoPro to your helmet? Looks a lot like where mine is (on the chin bar) but your camera angle is higher than mine even with the mods I made to the bracket..

Yup, have it on the chin.
Using the hook, or whatever that mount type is called, and a short extension to get it at the angle I need it at.
Couple pictures showing the setup.

I also have a mount on the dash using JT's Dash Mount, but didn't use it on this trip. Still working it all out. :D

This is how I did mine. I did not like the hook part and extension as for me it put the camera up more in my face. I wanted something more compact. So to get the camera angle up more I did some mods.

Also a tip. In the audio you can hear the pop (spaceman sounding voice) from your breath as you speak. To clean that up I moved my boom MIC below my lower lip. Sound was still good but I did not get the "spaceman" breath sound in my speaking.

Bob
 
Yeah, I'll have to see how much I can play with mic placement next time. I have the SRC system on the Schuberth so not exactly like the Sena. I think the Sena boom is a little bit longer giving you more flexibility on placement. We'll see; still a work in process.

I may also play around with some audio filters on the next clip and test those out to see how they work.

Thanks for the tips. :thumbup:

I'm curious, which high ris jacket are you wearing? I have been in the market for one for quite some time and still having a time choosing.[/FONT]

It's an Olympia. http://olympiamotosports.com/product/mens-airglide-4-jacket/
Have had it a couple years and still like it. I'm also a fan of what Tourmaster makes, but they didn't have any stock at the store we were shopping at.
