Tank Slap - Motorcycle Forum

I didn't realise I have the camera to shut down after 2 minutes.

This is part of the run from Craven Arms to Newtown

The speedo is in kmph and the video has been speeded up, officer.

Rev limiter FTW

Good vid there mate, she don't have pick up the revs quickly..

Ha ha I was behind you on that stretch I remember it very clearly, the road we had just come down was a lot of fun.
I assume the vid for that bit was unusable

That vid is very stable, just need to be tweaked upward a tad lol.....

Picture is clear as anything, that's real good. Can you do the same for the 483 then I can learn the road !

Thanks both.

I'm still learning how to use the camera and to edit. I'll get the hang of it.

Frankie, that road is ace. I might do a rideout around that area as there are some ace little roads between Newtown, Quatt etc.

not holding back there are you ! I liked that road it was brilliant

That bit of road was great fun. What camera is it Kwacky and was it stuck on with a suckion mount only? Seems very stable and was a very good clear vid

It's a Muvi camera, mounted on the tank in front of the petrol cap using a suction mount.

The list price is about £150 but you can get them a lot cheaper than that.

Did it come with the suction mount or did you buy separately ? As I need a good suction mount and always good to have a recommendation.

I bought a complete kit as listed in the link. You get loads of various mounts including clips for clothing, Velcro, suction mounts and bar mounts. There's a remote control as well.

Nice clear vid. Is the Rev limit 11k?

Sounds good. I already have a camera but use my telfreiser mount for the sat nav so need a second mount point. I'll have a look at the ram mounts abd see if they do an outside one.

What rev limiter?

It's just over 11k I think. I need to remember it's much lower than the 600

Very different engine of course, but very smooth by the sounds.

The engine spins up really well. The 0-60 is under 3 seconds which is very impressive for a bike this size and shape.

That camera looks very nice Kwacky thought you was going to say Go Pro or Drift! I've only ever had a camera attached to my bike once (go pro) but didn't trust the suction cap! Looks like it's well protected by your fuel cap

Where did you have yours position Rossgo out of interest ?

It was not my go pro it was my mates and we just shared it between us really. It was positioned at the rear on the side just so you could see the rear seat. Used it a few times, it was a good position but just never knew if it would fall off and being at the rear it's likely that if it had fallen off I wouldn't of realised until stopping haha!!

I'm going to try mine on the back next track day so I can have a good look at my body position. I'm in no way comfortable using the suction mount and being just a track bike have no problems sticking on the adhesive mounts. I know they are good for 275 km!

did you have the waterproof case fitted, or without it?
