I’m intrigued what the round plain bearing/bush looking item is in your parts pile?
Thanks buddy! I think I actually prefer the tone of my Leo Vince but I love the rasp of the Racefit

It's the "muffler gasket". Mine was butchered from swapping exhausts all the time. You're supposed to fit a new one every time you remove the exhaust according to the service manual

That's good quality on the camera.

Have you got a link for where you got it from?

Looks good Cav.

Can I ask to basic questions please as I'm too last to read the spec sheet (blush)

Is it battery or mains powered?

What does it record to ? Cloud, Sd card?

Does it stream to a motion jpg or via a browser instead of using the app?

Looks good for the money if it does...

USB B port for power, comes with mains adapter but you could probably run it off a portable battery charger if necessary.

It has a MicroSD card slot, you can use a cloud or the setting I have enables you to receive short clips and then go to live view - you can then record from that. I will set up cloud storage at some point.

I don't know about a motion JPG or browser instead of the App - I assume you're thinking of having it setup to a PC?

Tbh Cav I want something cheap that I can plug in and forget about. If the worst happens and god forbid I'm broken into the camera has captured the event and that's probably the only time I would ever want to look at the footage.

Reliable, cheap, simple plug and play, bit of kit would be the perfect ticket.

That's what this is with the cloud storage. I'll look into it this evening probably.

I have a home security system. As long as a browser can see a video, then it can.

If you get time put the ip address into a browser?

Putting the IP into a browser does nothing, Cookie.. What's it supposed to do?



I've fitted the chain today and given the bike a final clean. I've got the brake fluid change left to do and nothing else !! Also cleared space for my mate's bike - I get to experience two bikes in my workshop for the first time :D

Usually it shows a pic or vid in the browser window, sounds like it's not doing that.

Thanks for trying.
