SWing'R

Toasted bacon & turkey club combo @ Arbys.

They sell mounts like that. I looked at one at Iron Pony, they list for around $80-$90.

Yeah and not a single emt on scene? Its like they don't even try to save em, guess this shit happens alot. Probably happens enough with the way they were drivin that there is no remorse and the feeling is "the bikers brought it on themselves".

Did anyone else notice the speed limit sign... 75, nice!

So not only did I install that diy camera mount this weekend but I also installed a "BackOFFXP" Tail Light Modulator. I got it from Custom Dynamics for $44.45 total with shipping/tax. I ordered it online last Sunday night, it arrived on Wednesday. Nice turnaround from order to arrival, and pleased with the product! I opted for the XP model which has two different selectable patterns only because I was not sure which pattern I would like best. I went with the "5 fast flashes followed by steady on". Intallation wasn't to bad, I only blew one fuse in the process! I shorted the ground to running light hot when I was testing the wires to see which one was the brake hot. Here is what it looks like... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KA_AUNaPffk

I'll play around with it abit more over the weekend. Thats how I had it in the first two short vids I took, but I kinda like seeing the speedo in the vid. Being able to take any video is better then none at all though!

It was a Harley, musta been goin to slow! In all seriousness though, RIP Lisa, and burn in hell Mr. dump truck driver

Ok. So yeah I guess I need a better camera , took a run up Rt 257 between Home Rd and the Zoo and shot video, granted the camera I currently have is not designed for this kind videoing, the vibrations were bad since this camera does not have any antivibration feature. I'm uploading the video to youtube at this moment, once its done I'll post it here. Gotta save up for a Hero! Here is the video, this is Rt 257 going South, starting at the boat dock just South of Home Rd... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFvcR4QrwsM

In that first spin around the neighborhood yeah I only got up to about 20. I just shot a quick one outside the development and was doing 58 when the batteries died in the camera. That video looked great, no vibration, and I had the camera angled down and you can see my speedo and the tach. I'm charging the batteries up now and hope to get a better sample video either tonight or sometime tomorrow.

With just that in mind I used a fender washer with a self-adhesive felt pad attached to it, drilled a hole thru the felt then used a wing nut under it so I snug up the camera on the bolt then tighten up the wingnut and washer from under it and it snugs up and holds her tight. I'll post a few closeups of the mount and camera mounted to it shortly. BTW, thanks to whichever mod moved this thread to the "How-To" forum for me!

I already went ahead and put it in the pics and vids section... http://www.ohio-riders.com/showthread.php?t=33961

So I made one the $5 pvc camera mounts based off this video on youtube... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRpYJtb1rog Recon has one like it too. Just finished it up and put it on this morning, mounted the camera and took a quick spin around the neighborhood... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MxdsA9puEA I think if I aim it down just slightly I'll be able to pick up the speedo readout, the way its aimed right now I can see the top of the numbers. I'll try reaiming it later today and take it out on a couple nearby twisties! I plan on pickin up a Hero camera sometime, for now my current digital camera is all I got, it doesn't do sound and will only go 6minutes with the size card I have in it. But for now its ok.

Hey mods, why can't I start a new thread in the "How To" forum?

An update to this story.... http://www.morningjournal.com/articles/2009/09/05/news/mj1564115.txt WEAR YOUR GEAR! Yeah I'm talkin to you cruiser guys, you know who you are! J/K, I'm talkin to everyone but its mostly cruisers that go with a helmet and gear!

Dude just watch your ass up there, not sure why but you guys are out numberin the big city in deaths this season! A girl I know up that way that used to ride with a friend of mine won't even get on a bike anymore because of this.

Not quite sure whats goin on up in my old neck of the woods but there have been sooooo many motorcycle deaths in the Lorain County area this year! Here is another. Rip rider, speedy recovery to your passenger! http://www.morningjournal.com/articles/2009/09/04/news/doc4aa0eb32e0f11081636932.txt To all the OR's up in NE Ohio, watch your ass and wear your gear!

I did not ride today . I fail.

Why do you think I bought that yellow hoodie! It was still cold with that pulled over my tech jacket. Well, I also have a thing for flourescents

Boyz got mad skilz

541 from Martinsburg to Coshocton is a blast. Lots of curves and elevation changes. One of my favorites.

Fees are just the price you pay for accepting paypal as payment, I as a seller would never expect the customer to cover the fees.

Nice. + rep for you!

Shame he was so young. http://www.morningjournal.com/articles/2009/09/04/news/mj1559267.txt

Hehhheee. You said tranny. If you were on the second tranny, who was on the first tranny?

Had fun tonight, lots of OR's out! Even wearin the new hoodie over my jacket it was still a little cold on the way back to the West side of town tonight! Of course it'd been warmer had I kept it under 80!
