I think you'll agree that the latest permutation is the best so far. Mounted on top of the clutch master (pic), the jello effect is almost non existent. Very steady and smooth video. I'm obviously no cinematographer, but I think I can live with these results. The sound track is not added, it's the MP3 player.

- May 31, 2013, 19:58:09 PMYa heard that, huh...grinding off the hero knobs is an honorable thing to do..they are about 1/2 gone on the "W"...Just got back from a ridge run on apple blossom drive. I'm never going to get 100,000 on it if I don't ride it...

- May 31, 2013, 18:46:10 PMHey that was really good. Haven't we ridden this route before? Looks familiar.... Pretty soon we're going to know your neighborhood pretty well!
The left-bar perspective keeps making me think we're going left-of-center. But I think it's the best so far.
Was that the sound I heard of a right running board dragging a bit on a right turn?

By following directions I found that the saying "you can't miss it"in this case, actually was true...the road ends at her garage door. For a while, there, I was starting to think I was in the "outback"

Nice vid, nice place. With that background music, I kept expecting to see a big-eared little kid with a banjo.....

- May 31, 2013, 07:33:36 AMThe seat is the stock solo with a (made for a 2 piece nomad seat) Mustang cover. I cut the skirt of the stock seat and had it sewn on the cover, just at he rear seam. I added the fringe with some leather glue on the inside of the skirt. I did all this in '11, and ran it that way until I got the dual seat, which I modded a bit and had on all of last year, and this year, until Wednesday. The radio/mp3 player is from firefly designs on eBay..like $50. I added a 500 watt pmpo amp (probably about 15 watts per channel in reality) for another $30. I put the amp in the left side cover, in the tray on top of the tool box. I made sure I can still remove the windshield by having all the connections between the radio and the bike done with molex connectors. I will see how well this works out, and may go to something else, but I had the connectors scavenged from old computer power supplies. I decided to add the music box after deciding that listening to my own singing inside the helmet on those 10 hour rides, just wasn't doing it for me, anymore. That was one of the things I missed about my TourGLide...
