Default Rear view camera

does any one have any pix of a rear view camera on their bike. i saw 1 on a busa last time i went to a local bike night and it looked nice .4" screen on a tank and u dont have to look back to offten. so im looking for pix on honda owners to see if it looks as i hope it does.

and is it hard to mount that and is it worth doing or not , looking for opinions guys

Nuff said....

And they wont cost you 500 dollars...

All the time and energry spent to wire and cut and mount ..u could get a new lid or a new jacket and still be able to turn around and see where your going
Afterall itis still the best rear view camera..

Size:  23.4 KB yea but you can record rear vision video and when you are riding tucked, upright or hang'n off the side,the angle of the vid stays the same (no more adjusting mirrors!)besides that, its trick! check mine out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCptjzzceFI

Do the police in your state give you any grief about having an lcd screen in the mirror? Do you have a quick shut off toggle or something? Would you be interested in making another set of mirrors for me? I would want mirrors that also had blinkers. Also what cameras do you use? Can the dvr record both cameras at the same time? Sorry for the 20 questions game… but just interested… by the way nice bike.

you should install a front-view camera, with a screen attached to the inside of your visor :P

i would have done a larger screen on the tank or dash but ive seen that many times, i wanted something unique.when i thought of the mirror idea i had to do it and these were the biggest monitors i could fit in a mirror. did ya notice when the video is off it still works like a regular mirror, i think thats the trickest part!! my video link above shows how it was done.i do have a switch for the video, i live in philly and have it on all the time and have'nt been pulled over for it! (at least not yet. ha-ha) the dvr can only rec one cam at a time, if you watch the above video link,i made a custom dash for audio/video jacks and a switchto toggle between fr/rr cams
