so i was trying out pair if sunglasses with a built in video camera we got sent to us at work to demo. http://www.amazon.com/Predator-Outdoor-Products-Xtreme-Sunglasses/dp/B0030CQQTY  decided to wear them for the ride after work tonight. the video is really chopped up to fit it on youtube. and the microphone on them pics up wind noise pretty bad, even in my tahoe with all the windows up.(they are ment more to be used when on foot) the quality is a little better before it gets loaded onto youtube, but hey it works. anyway, i stumbled across some of the sand packed roads that lead all over this state and decided to have some more fun! im HOPING to try them out at a trackday at jennings on monday. just have to figure out how to get them to sit at a little better angle in my helmet. | ||

Great video Tim, that's a cool gadget. It's a little disconcerting when you're looking around though. How about taping a piece of sponge over the mike? | ||

I think it is odd that your instrument cluster would continually jump up in front of your view. There is something amiss there!   | ||

that's pretty cool. maybe they can figure out some way to buffer the sound and do a wideangle lens. | ||

A little square of tape over the microphone will reduce the wind noise by a bit. At least it did in my case. | ||

i cant even tell where the microphone is on this thing, so i put tape over every hole i could find lol. obviously it didnt help much. i would put music over it, but then you couldnt hear the bike spooling up on the sand roads. thats half the fun! I think it is odd that your instrument cluster would continually jump up in front of your view. There is something amiss there! i know right!? i thik i need to take it in while its still under warrenty and get it figured out. my 1125r does that alot also. then you have to look around that big fairing. guess i should quit bein layz and take them both in!

100+ on sand....weee ha. cant do that up here, the dirt and mud and curves and corners will not let you get away with that kind of pass, 72 is my best; 53 is the happy zone. | ||

no doubt that it looked like you were having fun. i know i like to get a cr some day. | ||

ive been doing a bit of off roading on the 1125r today too... although it was sliding the ass end through a corner on the throttle at jennings and ran a bit wide pushin 100mph. got it reigned in enough to stand it up as i slid off the track and jumped some whoopdies! lol. no harm no foul, back on the gas and launch it back on the track anf hammer down! |
