    went for a little pootle today over the track and tested the new mount for the camera. Video on youtube (check my sig) Still needs a bit of work cause its a bit jumpy but I like the angle better.

    Can the mount go a little higher? Good though, just suss out the wobbly bit and it'll be good. The only thing is though if you intend to film other bikers with it they'll be constantly going in and out of shot but if you're intend the view to be of the road, scenery and such it'll be great.

    A nice view. Not as much sky as I would have expected. You could make money from that vibration though.

    its not the road surface. its the rubber mounting on the fairings/camera. One little bump and the camera shakes for 20 seconds. In the process of fixing it though.

    If I wanted to record other riders (except kwakas) I would have it pointing backwards!!!.. TBH is is much less distracting on the side of the bike too. On top of the bike it keeps catching my eye when I am cornering. Where it is now I forget about it.

    In an effort to be the odd one out and actually post a ride in the ride thread here we go.

    Plan is to leave Ashhurst at 7am sat morning to head to wellys for this...

    http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...d.php?t=102931

    motomarts suspension day. BBQ and plenty of people to chat with.

    Hang round there for a little bit and then I am going to head over to tithi bay for lunch. All welcome as Ruthie and Gareth love seeing the bikes show up and cook a pretty decent feed. (not all from motomart cause that could just get a bit silly).

    Then weather dependant will decide on a route home. looking at being back in town about 4pm.

    whos in?
