Testing the MD80 camera out on the DR-Z

Bought the daft thing ages ago but never actually got it to work. After taking it apart and unplugging things, then plugging them back in it seems to have started acting like a camera now.

Anyway, was just testing it today (along with the bike which I've just serviced and added hand guards, grips + new mirrors to) and put together a few clips just showing the quauility really - which is not the best but great for the money Thumbs Up

Clips are nowt special, if I knew the camera was working properly I would have went somewhere more interesting. Hope to get more use of it during the summer Smile

I like the mirrors, but are they any good?

They work quite well actually, takes getting used to though, you have to move your head instead of just glancing across, no vibration or anything though. They're actually bar end mirrors originally but it doesn't take much effort to mount them like I have.

Velcro tape ftw Thumbs Up

My nose is pressed against it though/along side it Laughing

Does the job tho, and barely any wind nose, just makes my breathing sound like that of an obese american some times.

Nice undertaking :p

Quality is good, i would of thought a 400 would be quicker though.

If it's that bit near the end then I undertook cos I needed to be in the right lane to go right at the roundabout but the bloke in front was going too slow (well he was doing the speed limit but still, 30 is too slow for that road imo).

Aye DRZ's are canny slow but the perfect bike for when you're restricted Thumbs Up
