Ok so hopefully I dont join the failboat here and can get this vid to work.

Just some quick info on the vid. Im on a 2007 sv650n with just exhaust. I am a pretty slow rider, especially in the straights. I try not to piss everyone off so that we can still ride the canyons without getting harrased. So yes I was going somewhat quick but probably not compared to some people on here :). The song is by the Black Keys....

Enjoy...

Try now...

Also the camera is a little Hero Go Pro or whatever they are called. Any motorcycle place sells them, and for 179.99 its awesome! Edited real quickly in iMovie.

Is that what the video looks like RAW or is it a little grainy because it is up on photobucket? I have been thinking about one of those cams for a while now.

its only 3 mp so its a little grainy. Although I can tell photobucket did downsize the quality a little. I think for what they are, they are great little cameras.

It's definitely better than that raw. I filmed a leisurely run up Horsepower Hill on Sunday and I'll post it up when I get home this evening.

Sweet :) Are you used to not having the LCD on the back yet Dirk? Have you tried the helmet mount yet? Not to thread jack, but I see some pretty amazing crap o nmy commute and I would LOVE to document it all :)

Nice video... I've not looked at this cam. Does it shake at higher speed?

Just an FYI, I totalled my bike there a few weeks back on a deer at about 45mph:

No shaking really, its pretty steady. This was shot with the suction cup mounted on my tank.

I know I saw that man, trust me I was thinking about it all the way through!

I consider the LCD location a mild annoyance. Have not tried the helmet mount. I've been putting it on the tank. And I have already gotten stupid drivers recorded (as you know, it isn't hard).

Great Vid. I also like the song you chose.

I love it when you guys post up videos. Makes you kinda enjoy the ride without being there. Well....actually, it really just makes me wanna go ride.

Coolio! :)
