it amazes me how the stick becomes invisible, other road users must wonder what the big stick attached to the bikes for though
It is quite clever, when the camera stitches the 2 lenses footage together, it just deletes the bit with the stick in it!
After my last outing on the triumph ending abruptly with a call out to the AA, I needed to get some new tyres for the 765. This was my first ride on the new rubber:
My first video in April last year was Braemar to Blair,on my Triumph (since then i have made almost 70 ) due mostly to the great weather we had last year) now i've stuck the same route up but on my Harley, i wanted to use "Silver Machine" by Hawkwind but youtube took my first attempt down so i found another band doing their version which as it turns out is pretty good
A little taster for the folk that are getting up early on the Tuesday morning on this years Scotland trip, this is "The road to the isles"(A830) that @Rocker asked me about for the rest of the group that don't fancy an early start (we will be ready to leave at 7am sharp!) we will meet you at JJs café first left as you turn onto the A830 just outside Fort William 9.30-10am
Some of the Facebook groups I'm on asked me to leave the engine noise in on my vids as I'd overlay music on one to hide the awful wind noise it had, so I did, and here it is!
Another motovlogger I follow has started a treasure hunt which is quite a lot of fun. I was able to find the "treasure" first at its last location so got to move it on and hide it again for others to find. No idea if the hunt is of interest to folk on here, but I did it on my Street Triple 765R and I had another play with the almost magical Insta360 One X camera which gives some incredible 3rd person views of the bike when riding. Here is the video if of interest, I had a lot of fun making it!
Earlier on in the year I took a trip on my 765R down to the Historic Dockyard at Portsmouth Harbour to visit the Mary Rose. It is an incredible ship, really quite eery to be able to walk around her. Only 35 of the 500 crew survived the sinking!
I literally got pulled over straight after crossing the Severn Bridge one visit for having a dirty numberplate (it was raining and I'd ridden around 200 miles in the grot at this point)
That paint is lovely mate, I considered the R-Nine T myself for a while, but it was a bit more dosh than I really wanted to be spending at the time!
Yeah, they’re not cheap, although I have to say that the fit & finish is top notch. Thanks re the colour - it really is something else in the metal.
