    My rig for the Gap in under 2 weeks from now.

    And if you guys keep complaining about how its "not quite" riding season yet, you are all off your rockers. This is on Pilot Powers with about 50 miles of riding on them.

    All I could see was armco everywhere! Be careful Dude that shit hurts.

    Your riding looked fine it was just the other stuff that was scary. I must be getting old, not to mention the track riding is a bit spoiling.

    you need to either zoom out, or mount the camera further back so you can get more of the road in the shot, and still get the speedo.

    Yeah, and driveways/turn offs, side streets. Not to pick on you, but I think you were going a little fast for the conditions. At one point you got startled by a truck backing out. That could have ended your ride right there. It's hard to imagine til you get hit, but shit happens so damn quick, and your speeds limited your options severely.

    have fun, Ride safe

    The quality looked great. I agree that zooming out a tad might give a better viewing angle etc.

    Watch out for those cagers, like the one in the truck.

    Quality is really good, but as others have said, get the camera up more and the speedo out. You don't want to be one of those people that gets busted for speeding from a vid they posted on the intarweb...

    What are you using for a camera/mount? The picture is clear and not a lot of wind noise.

    And take off your keychain. It keeps flapping around.

    My speedo is severely inaccurate due to the gearing....

    And thats as far zoomed back as the camera goes, I think. I dunno, maybe its been zoomed in all this time?
