Good video editing. What cam you have, and what program do you use to edit? I wanna get a camera and editing program so I can start making videos.

[zone07]

I use a Kodak V570 (not a helmet cam). Any editing software may be used.

[nativebrother]

That's the thing. I don't know about any video editing programs. And how much will I have to pay for an editing program, or can I download some?

[zone07]

I'm sure you'll get a ton of hits if you do a search for them; some popular ones are, Adobe Premier, Sony Vegas Video, Cyberlink Power Director, Windows has Movie Maker and Mac has iMovie as part of their systems. There's probably free software out there as well.

Are u doing the review while riding?If so how did you get so little wind noise and what kind of camera are you using?

[zone07]

yeah, i'm running my mouth while riding. I placed tape over the microphone. I use a Kodak V570

A video on YouTube of someone driving a motorcycle the speed limit and using proper methods? I'm impressed, but must admit I've been conditioned to expect a high speed chase or at least some reckless and illegal driving. To not see it is refreshing. Kudos!

the monologue is rather boring. You could try to describe the pros and cons of your own bike, and tell how many mpg you get, how fast does it accelerate, how much does it weigh. is it good on corners, what is it like in the rain, with two people, how much is the insurance, do you ride all year round, how often do you service it, and lubricate the chain, what kind of tyres do you use, how have you set the suspension?etc. stuff like that, instead of rambling on...

@imatthews37 I wouldnt call it a beginner bike either. its not slow by any means. I think a beginer bike would be a rebel or sometihng smaller. I know my first bike was a yz 80.. I learned a long time ago. but I wouldnt toss a complete newb on a katan.. lol. talk about bad idea.

I've had one of these for several months - found nothing disappointing about it. Good for 2-up too, as the seat is dead good for riding with the misses. Dunno why this is called a "learning bike" all the time - including in this tape.  Of course it's not a balls-out street racer, but does everything else have to be considered a "learner" ?

NAA... you werent rambling, I liked the bike chat. Thanks for the ride Zone. Stay safe out there.

Great vids man, and what a nice Kenworth behind you at 2:16 I love those big shits too. :) In Central Europe, you can't see a damn American truck. A lot of Scania, Mercedes and Volvo...

[oneshot461]

great vid, one of the better vids out there, keep 'em coming mate

[nativebrother]

Yeah, I haven't really searched for a video editor yet. I gotta buy a good camera, I'll research your V570 though.
