excellent ..... not a bad result got some info on the mount you are using.... eg... what sort of sticky tape etc....

bike sounds good not too much wind noise

WTF man, you must be psychic or just THAT good!!

I actually used electrical tape and taped it to my horn

It was more of just a test to see what the video/audio quality would be. It works good enough for me so I'll fab up a fork mount this weekend.

Thanks
Pete

Pretty good for something done on the cheap. Well done brother. Has me second guessing my recent decision to buy a GoPro. Now go shoot some more video for us.

hey i know what most rz owners are like... they dont generally skimp on purchases for the bike ..... but other things can be as dodgy as you like...

Looks ok when sitting still but gets pretty grainy when moving. Probably only like 15 framesa second or less. I have a hero2 hd motorsports edition with 16gb class 10 card for sale. Lol shameless plug from a non Rz owner. No comparison in quality.

Looks good Pete!

Less sure I need a link to Jason's vids... assume he bought the waterproof version tho

Yep, thanks guys, definitely not GoPro quality but for the amount of times I will be using sometning like this, its works ok for me.

Kinda wierd, the vid looks waaaaay better on both my phone and PC. Maybe something gets lost in the translation from phone to PC and PC to youtube on the upload. There were a few choices of download quality to my PC and on the upload to youtube. Maybe I should have chosen a higher quality then the "recommended" settings.

Happy belated BDay Silver, ya old bastad'!!!!

Thanks
Pete

)

Thanks

Cool video!! Looks like a pretty good phone cam...I gotta experiment with some different mounts myself.. Keep ep comin, winters too damn long up here. Soon enough all I'll be able to do is watch videos of RZs
