ProudPops Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 Anyone heard of this? I met a guy at the store today on an 05 R6. He has the all black model, looks good. Anyway, while we're talking, he told me he has a rear view cam on order. You have to have the fender eliminator and the cam goes somewhere back there and it comes with a monitor that mounts on your dash. He said it's not meant to replace your mirrors but to give you the whole view of what's behind you.I did get his name, he runs by Shadow, but I wish I got his number so I could see how it works when he gets it. He said he gos into IP often and will look up Clutch to talk to him about his bike. I was out of Streamline cards, so I had nothing to give him. Farva, mental note, more cards for Pops.Pops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzukisportrider2004 Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 sounds simple to use but were do you find a weather proof screen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProudPops Posted September 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Not sure, but he said it's made specifically for bikes. I am so kicking myself in the ass for not getting his number so I can actually see it. Hopefully he'll look up Clutch @ IP and I can check it out, or he can. The other thing I was thinking about, wouldn't that be kind of busy? Maybe with my vision tracking my age, do I really want to take my eyes off of what is in front of me to focus on what no longer matters?Pops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snredrum Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 http://www.ronayers.com/accessories/motocam.cfmhere is one for you. I have seen a couple of photos of people who have it. It is pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yotaman88210 Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 do I really want to take my eyes off of what is in front of me to focus on what no longer matters?Pops The only thing this would really help with is lane changes. I know sometimes I turn my head real far to check the blind spot and that is taking my eyes of the road for a second or two. As long as it was justv a quick glance I think it would be a good addition. Just dont stare at the damn thing. **This is also good for lookin at the hot chic behind you at the traffic light. She will never know. This way youre not turning around ten different times. HaI wonder if there is anyway you can record with this also? Could be beneficial in an accident or to record come buddies while they are stunting behind you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrome Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 heard about them and everybody that i have talked to with one says that it is alright but you always have to asjust the contrast as the sun moves. that was there only complaint. sounds like a pain in the ass to me.

Kawboy Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Hey, I checked the above link and googled the company name on the camera, The MotoCam. Pretty cool sight. The guy is 27 and was rear ended on his bike. Came up with the idea and has several different products to offer. The other two opinions are worth considering, trying to see the screen with aging eyes, and checking out the hot chick behind you.KB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buells3rider Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 I think another thing to take into account here is how much vibration your bike produces. If I were to mount that screen anywhere on mine? I'd be willing to bet good money there's nowhere I could put that where it could actually be useable, no matter what custom mount I could fab up.
