Put thick foam over the mic, just like they do to reporters/etc.

Looks good, if you don't mind me asking how much did that run you for the camera and mount? Looks like a fun road too!

Give it up track-boy-wanna-be...

No reason to push it on the streets - having been to a track you should be the first to point that out. Nothing like a safe, spirited ride through some twisties.

It doesn't look like it in the video...........but I just got new Qualifiers a week ago (damn screws) and there isn't a chicken strip left on the rear tire.

Very cool foxy[sm=smiley20.gif]

Can you move the camera around to shoot at any any angle or position? You forget how much the suspension works up and down till you see it on video. +1 on the New Mexico scenery in the background....is that the Organ Mountains?

Anyways..cool stuff man

Yep. It's the Organ Mountains that grace the background in many of my photo's. The video was shot on the other side of the mountains. It's the road that you take to enter Aguirre Springs Hiking area.

I missed it.... where was your "oh s*it moment" ? Love the quality of the camera, Fox!
It's right at the end. You can see me coming up to a turn and the camera starts shaking violently. My rear was skipping a bit because I was on the brakes. I was coming up to the corner and noticed a hell of a lot of gravel. So I braked hard, keeping the bike straight, then went around the gravel.

I just used the same Canon A630 digital camera that I use to take pictures of my bike. I bought a aluminum camera bracket at best buy, drilled some holes in it, and mounted it to the swingarm where the spools are supposed to go.

Can you upload it to photobucket or something? I'd love to see it, however youtube is blocked at work.
