(BCF) Bank Holiday Tankcam

[Korn]

Bored shitless today and still sore from paintballing so I decided to strap the viddy cam to the storm and go for a little cruise. Attaching the camera to this thing is a right pain in the arse, but it worked out alright in the end.

Here's some good bits: 10 minute clip, 52 megs.

Got a problem with using both wheels?!

Wicked vids, but be careful.

A bloke near me crashed after taping himself doing "bad" things. The police picked the camera up at the crash site and he got done on that evidence. Think he was from Hemel.

Keep them coming.

My solution is to attach the tank bag then sort of fold the sides of it over making a gulley in the middle into which I stick the camera. Then bungee the camera onto the tank bag and cargo net the tank bag onto the tank - just in case.

I was a bit worried about pulling wheelies with it on but it stood up fine, only problem is I can't get the bike high enough to balance without my chest squashing into the camera.

it has a wind reduction feature which works quite well (although makes no concernable differents to my wind )

also have a pen like mic for it which we could stick in your helmet

Korn, your bike sounds fooking loud! A bit of a difference to an NSR

Scotty going "wooooooooooooooooo" may not be such a great idea! Maybe it's actually him we can hear coming the length of the A5 rather than his bike.


Can you wedge the camera in front of the clocks perhaps, or is that a very silly idea?

Though I was considering making a bracket for the camera that attached to a bolt on the body work for funny angles like by the wheel etc

Hmmmmm, it's pretty tiny isn't it? You could use a fairing bolt (one of the ones with a 90 degree angle in it), to attatch it to wherever you attatch your tax disc (or the one you haven't got )
