I can't afford a GoPro, my cam doesn't do audio and I can't ride for shit. It would be the most pathetic moto vid ever....


"make the beast with two backsing idiot chopped the throttle mid-turn again"

"Jesus, Helen Keller could'a picked a better line"

[popcorn]

"brake, brake, brake, brake!!!"

[popcorn]

"HaHaaaa!! Speedracer here just got passed by a schoolbus!"




Or something like that.

I tried twice last Fall and the damn thing didn't work.

Now it's Winter and no riding until Spring and warmer weather.

I'll try again then.

Indeed.

Speaking of laughing at oneself, I should post up the picture of me embracing "Mustache March." ;D

You can test it without going for a "race ride."

Just because it might work in my cage doesn't mean it's for sure going to work once it's mounted and screaming down the road on a bike !

I've been tossing around the idea of a GoPro, but I seriously doubt anybody, myself included, wants to see the glory of Kansas roads on a sportibke.

Man, I need to move... :-\

[roll] If it works in the driveway, it works on the road. It ha been proven many times.

It's pretty simple, push the on button and go.

I drove thru once or twice. Its a long drive...But I can go to Kansas by driving up and down I-5 too, and its a lot closer.
Anyway the video with the Jumps is really cool.

Ha, that was almost what I said when my wife was driving through a red light in downtown PDX last week, except it was more like:

"stop, stop, stop, STOP!!!"

Normally she is a really good driver, but she was looking at the stop light a block ahead, and wasn't going to stop for the one right in front of us . . . We were going about 30 MPH, so I was starting to panic a bit there as we got really close, and weren't slowing down at all.

JM,

You posted up some nice photos as I seem to remember of some really nice roads and places.

If you videoed that ride that would be very nice !

My Mom used to be talking to my Dad when he was driving and he would stop at green lights and almost get us killed when I was a kid.

She would never stop talking and it drove my Dad nuts when driving in city traffic.

I've never uploaded to it, so I don't know for sure, but you could try Vimeo. I've been impressed enough with the video quality and speed watching things there, but I know nothing about their policies regarding music.

Thanks for the tip.  It seems to have worked OK.

How's this for an old, out of shape, fat man on an MH900e?  It starts off kinda slow down on a four lane, but it picks up pretty quick.

That's a very good POINT !

Someone else brought that up at one time. That if you got pulled over, that the video if it showed your gauges would be the noose to hang your butt !

Plus in general , it's just not as much fun if you DON'T show your speed when you're doing 130 mph around the tight sweeper . [evil]

Notice the previous video shows the tachometer, but not the speedometer just below it.  I guess "Da Man" could write up the double yellow passes, but since most of the cages actually move over I don't know that even that would stick?!?
