You can see on the next acceleration after the 11:20 minute mark that the tips you guys gave me in this post: http://www.600cc.org/forum/f87/shifting-issues-23956/ have really made a difference.

Nice video man! Looks like great country!
I think I'm going to use christmas as an excuse and finally get a gopro and start recording

Put a sock on the Contour and get rid of the annoying wind noise.

Thank you. I also have the waterproof case which should help as well, although I don't imagine I'll use it for long rides in the sun.

My friend I was riding with said, "You should make sure it doesn't see the speedometer?"

"Why?"

"Evidence."

Thanks!

The video is helping me to be a better rider. For example, from here I'm noticing I'm making steering corrections in a turn (albeit slight ones). However, this means 1) I'm not choosing the right line in the turn to start with and 2) I'm giving up predictable handling (traction) in exchange for what are sometimes completely unnecessary changes.

I LOVE this bike.

ATGATT!

The wind noise on those camera's really do suck! But Nice vid man... :thumbup:

Another video

Moved the mount to the fairing with a suction cup mount (strong suction cup, clean surface). I did some pre-testing before hitting the road and by then was confident it would stay.

New Video -

Went for a leisurely after-work ride. This is a long video (26 minutes), so unless you are really bored or not having riding weather, you might want to skip around. Other than a very nice day, there's not much to see unless you are like me and just like to watch ride videos. Available in 720P.
