    Anyone ride a great road today? Video?

    Along the same vein as Trevor’s anyone go for a ride today? Pics? thread, maybe this will become a place where members post videos/clips of great rides. What follows is anything but a great video. I just got a bar mount for my phone and thought I’d see what kind of video I could get. It’s mostly unwatchable, but I have it below anyway. I think a GoPro with stabilization is in my future. (Hint to my wife for my upcoming 50th birthday) This is a fun little stretch of mountain pass about 15 miles from my house.

    Besides Jedz and his YT Channel, jedz moto, I don’t see too many members posting videos of your rides. I know some of you have Gopros, let’s see some great roads.

    Wow!

    That's on your phone? What kinda phone have you got?

    The GoPro is the way to go....Looks like $400:https://gopro.com/en/us/

    You'll have to brush up on your narrating skills and enthusiasm like Jedz!

    It's really challenging talking yourself up and letting everyone know your ramblings. I'm being generic in that sense because we all narrate in our minds but don't capture it on video.

    I remember talking to myself on rides and not being too bashful because I knew it was only me listening to myself. As long as I didn't answer myself, I wasn't crazy...lol!

    Here's to members being brave enough (or whatever term people want to use) to post their video rides...cheers!

              Yes, this is exactly what I wanted to see. Also, if anyone would care to share their filming setup: mount, camera, etc. I’m interested to see what folks are using.

                  Good videos guys!

                  This just goes to show, it is challenging to narrate your own video...on the fly (unscripted).

                  One good way to avoid the distorted sounds of filming is to do music over video...which is what bonanzadave did.

                  You just got to give it up for Jedz...credit/props for producing his own videos. He makes it look fun and easy which, it really isn't.

                            Wow, that was cool! I kept saying SHIFT BOB SHIFT! haha. You were definitely wringing it out.
                            Question, about how many miles would you ride at a typical track day weekend? I suppose it depends on the race track.
                            My Motorcycles:
                            22 Kawasaki Z900 RS (Candy Tone Blue)
                            22 BMW K1600GT (Probably been to a town near you)
                            82 1100e Drag Bike (needs race engine)
                            81 1100e Street Bike (with race engine)
                            79 1000e (all original)
                            82 850g (all original)
                            80 KZ 650F (needs restored)

                              @Rich82GS750TZ..a caution: Be careful using your phone. Iphones in particular have ruined their fancy cameras so get a special mount. I'd avoid using any decent phone on a motorcycle anyways.

                              Mounts for action cameras could fill a thread but I do notice that my Suzukis overall are really good per vibration/jello effect etc. And $ isn't everything when it comes to action cameras.... However a feature that begins recording with a single button (On-Begin Recording) and a beep you can hear when it does, is good to have.
