Not sure where to post : On board vid with Dan Moto Exhaust
 
A Squid on a Chicken on Hwy 20 - YouTube ... Bad vibes on wind screen... any one else find a good place to mount a Go Pro vid cam, other than on your helmet?

That looks like a kick ass road! Awesome scenery,epic. Nice sounds the pipes sound great,well done.

Squid 09-11-2011 11:01 PM

Im trying... Still not happy with the mounting and the huge vibration issue on the windscreen. Jetting still isnt perfect but the day and scenery was.

Sounds great! Are these the cans they sell on Ebay?

Squid 09-12-2011 08:53 AM

yes sir they are.

Sounds good. I would like to hear them from behind the bike at full throttle.

What kind of camera are you using? Oh, I see in the first post. Go Pro.

It does sound a bit loud but good..... then again I am getting old.....lol

Also, and I hope you really don't take this the wrong way, but it does sound like you really don't rev the engine quite enough.....

Yes we all have our own riding style but it does sound like you rarely get above 5K....

Then again it could just be the audio.... but you might want to try shifting at around 7K or more while "sport riding" ( I usually shift between 7.5-9K depending on the situation while out having fun) and keep the revs above 5K (closer to 6K is even better) and you will get a lot more drive out of the corners..... ;)

Carry On....

I have one but it was straight road and not much change in RPM... Its hard to find good roads near on or near the Island. Will try it again this weekend, I have one guy who should be able to keep up.

People hear me a little ways off but most poeple smile or thumbs-up as I pass. I think its funny. As far as the rev range I was staying in the upper 5-8K. The camera didnt catch that, I was kind of dissapointed. Thanks for the advise though.

I mount mine on a Ram Mount. I still get some vibes. Check out this guys vids:
motochron's YouTube Channel -

He has some interesting views. Looks like he mounts it all over the place (rear bags, forks...) w/ excellent results.

So, do you like the pipes or are they too loud for ya?

finepooch 09-12-2011 06:38 PM

nice!!!

Thanks for the link. I have drawn up some one-offs for forks and or clutch cover mounts. That did give me some other ideas. As far as the noise goes... I work nights and I get paranoid with these small town law enforcment officers... I respect them but when there is little going on then they like to look hard. Basically what i am trying to say is durring the day I love em, but durring the quiet hours, I watch the revs.

Sounds good! Thanks for posting it.
RE: ... Its hard to find good roads near on or near the Island.
You are kidding right? In the 6 1/2 minutes of video it looks like you only had to back off twice. I'd kill for that. Around this area you would have gone though 20 traffic lights, 7 stop signs, been cut off 3-4 times...

Enjoy your rides. The bike sounds great and you've got great roads to let it fly.

Thanks for the post. What I meant is: That particular road is 75 miles away from where we started. Round trip we rode 347.6 miles. Even with a Sargent Seat, My but was far from good. IM originally from Southern Califorina where we have Azusa Canyon, Ortega Highway, Palomar Mtn, and Santiago Canyon... I guess I grew up where it was easy to find a good road, but now since the Navy tells me where I am going to be it makes it a little difficult. But I do undrestand where you are comming from. Riding in Pensacola, FL was painful.
