I bought the GoPro at the Carson City Costco a couple weeks ago. I'm using the helemt mount, as you can see in the attached "test" video. I had the water proof seal out and volume on HI which results in a lot of wind noise. I'm going to try it next with seal back in place with volume left on HI and see how it goes.
Yikes...........lots of noise at a buck forty, eh?  ;D Two busas doing Diamond Valley. Oh............FYI..........if you intend to upload to youtube, keep you video sessions less that 10 minutes. It takes approx one hour to upload a 6 to 8 minute session to youtube, be patient.

Wind noise shouldn't really be a concern as you can edit it out (or just down) in post.
Thanks to Sidi|Motion Pro|Vortex|Carters|Shoei for the support in 2019

JP I feel like such a jerk. You bought the camera that everyone wants and you crash. Is that bad karma? No just bad luck.

And the wife approves?  Cool video.  Anticipating more.
It's about taking in the most corners to your destination, not about the shortest, quickest route.

Come on buddy!! Why do you feel like a jerk??? No reasons for that!! Things happen for a reason and I kinda have some guesses of what the reasons for this "incident" where... but anyways, looking at the bright side, now I know a lot more about my r6 than before... hehehe when you come to my house you will understand why!!  ;D I'm gonna start calling my R6 "Phoenix" now...  8)

Yeah baby I know the feeling.  When my aprilia had her low side. It all changed. Now it looks so cool. I never would have done it if I hadn't crashed it. I guess that's what we need to open up our creative side.

Riding on the street is a lot like living with your parents.

Hey GreenMachine! You want more foolishness from an old man, eh? Well, I hit a buck sixty five right after passing the  car! For us high speed freaks, the frontage road just south of Bowers Mansion has been freshly paved and is sooooooo smooth and inviting! Hehe.......I've known the kid (NHP on his new trooper BMW 1200) since he was in grade school with my son, but he still gets all puffed up and PO'd at me when I tell him don't even try to catch me.................your radar ain't fast enough!!  ;D
