How I made my rear camera mount and some footage.

[moose3971]

Nice looking camera/cb antenna mount, and great co-pilot, I have WILE

Great mount SC. Some of the cool stuff that comes up now and again in mc vlogs is great. I nearly dropped mine off the kickstand the other week too. Just saw it in the corner of my eye and managed to catch it before it went too far. Glad no damage was sustained to the burgman.

[theSMYRNAcowboy]

Yes I did. If it screwed up, I would have filled the hole with silicone and used a black magic marker. LOL

[suburbanryder]

Oh and I'm curious.... did you think about it a lot before making that hole in the box? I would have. Then I would have gone ahead and done it anyway. LOL

[suburbanryder]

I laughed at 4:37.

Pittimus suggested instead of mounting mine with a lot of padding I use as solid of a mount as possible. I got a lot of shake my first try. After seeing how good your shots look I want to do that too on rides.

[theSMYRNAcowboy]

Thanks buddy. I think the V570 would have done better. More FPS but for that app, it did good.

[theSMYRNAcowboy]

Your right.  I think I pulled my back a little bit but it's all good now. Now for the Krispy Kreme thing, I just couldn't resist. :P

[RC62]

Nice setup. Sorry to hear you let the bike go over but glad she's OK. :^) Your heart must have stopped for a few beats as you saw her going down to the ground.

btw... the krispy kreme comment was really funny.

The last time I had a "ride" like that was sitting in the back of my now husband's parents' stationwagon on the way up to Big Bear. Lots of switchbacks....Ummm, yeah, had to barf after that. Hee Hee Hee. Seriously though, that is COOL!!

[theSMYRNAcowboy]

Thanks sweetie.

How do you sych the video and audio?

[theSMYRNAcowboy]

I used WMM. Had a reference point and just muted one audio and un muted the other one. IE Stopped at the gas station and the other one as he was passing me.

[dbauernf]

Looks like the rear cam need a few more frames per second (fps) to be a bit smoother :)

[theSMYRNAcowboy]

It was and old camera. I'm sure the spare Kodak V570 would have done better. I would rather risk losing that one on the test run.

[azgothsick6sick]

wow cool...will be looking foeward to it..wooo hooo... :D

[8cuttlefish8]

Genius!

[theSMYRNAcowboy]

Thanks mate !

[azgothsick6sick]

wow..thats some really good footage SC..

keep it comin' :)

[theSMYRNAcowboy]

Got your PM. Going to be working on that vid this weekend.

[mojojodon]

3:19 yeah, good view cept when that buffalo bills flag gets in the way ;-)

[theSMYRNAcowboy]

ROFLMAO !

[REEDSBUD]

Very cool set-up there sir!! LMAO at the cop going to the "doughnut sale"!!

[theSMYRNAcowboy]

I just HAD to throw that in there.

[davidhowellca]

Interesting. I have a Sanyo CG10 that I'd like to use to get some similar footage. Might give this a go and see how it comes out.

[theSMYRNAcowboy]

If you do, let me know how it works out for you.

[britex3186]

Cool idea there SC!

[theSMYRNAcowboy]

Thank Buddy. Was going to test it at Deals Gap but Nooooooooo. :-( On the Gap, I may have used the spare V570 for that mount. I think it would have been better.

[theSMYRNAcowboy]

I would say a antenna would look sort of............ odd on a sport bike.

[Itsreload]

Id like to figure some way to use that setup. I may just end up getting a spare rear seat cowl and drilling it. So I can swap it out. An antenna on a sport bike would look weird.
