By ferry, but I’m sailing from Bilbau to Rosslare. Will be staying around southern Ireland mostly.

Do you go by Bike or hairyplain? if bike what port do you go from? If Holyhead you will be One mile from me at some point when on the A55 to Holyhead..Call in for coffee, i will buy some real stuff. Lyn.

No one wants to see your moobs.

Forgot to mention Dan has been taken this bike for every service since new...think it's the third one....he's the type of guy that's affaird if something goes wrong under warranty...that the dealer will tell him...well that not covered cause you didn't do the schedule maintenance according to the owner manual..... Hey when are you gonna remove this 5 post per day bullshit....lol.....hope you know that means no tities pic for you...lol

I'll be heading across the border on Thursday.

I bought it back from my boss

That is exactly why I don't let dealers touch my bike, these days they are only interested in you buying a new bike or dropping $5k on upgrades.

Anyway this morning doing a rear tire on Dan's bike... Think that we could possibly have the worse dealership on the eastern shore...lol...about a month ago a weather strip started dangling down onto the speedometer...he took the bike in for pictures and for approval for warranty stuff..so indian would approve...and it was in for that , oil change , air filter...wyll I was taking the bike apart this morning figured I'd have a quick look over...this is what I found...drive belt completely out of wack rubbing on one side of the pulley...coolant not top off...suspension pin so dry the needle bearing is marking the saft pin...I'm not even sure now the air filter was replaced...lol....boy do they need a marcel has a general manager...I just might have to come out of retirement if they paid me enough...lol. Oh yes for the weather strip...they replaced the speedometer itself...lol...wich was perfectly fine...the weather is attached to the facesia...and they just ripped off the dangling peice...lol. Anyway got nothing against immigrants...but in my mind , you need somone who can actually speak either English or French to be any type of manager...I swear you can't even make out what the hell they are saying half of the time...you swear you walk into a Punjabi motorcycle dealer it's that bad...lol....general manager, service manager, parts manager.... Again Im not blaming the guys in shop..I've worked in dealership and know how they push the guys to the limit and to rush things out of the door and guys probably receive bonuses and stuff... Last picture is the part that should have been replaced... So the moral of the story if you're capable of doing your own maintenance....do it yourself....dealership are for warranty work..that about it... So Dan paid 500 bucks to get the oil change..lol. Oh ! And I was finally able to test out Dan's 112....honestly I can't tell the difference...but his is completely stock..other than slip ons...

You link isn't working on my end.... Its all I could find to get delivered fast...im sure there is better ones out there...what sold me on this one...is its operated via wi-fi on my phone...can start recording and stop through my phone....anyway it's not like Ill be able to post videos from sturgis...no need to tell you half of the women are running around Top-less....lol.

You can specify the quality that it is available in on your YouTube channel.

I have another mount and will try that Pedro...not sure exactly what's going on...when I look at video before loading it to YouTube...you see half of the front wheel and part of the wind jammer...and it looks more like your moving...that rider was doing 100 or 60 miles and hour..and after I passed, I was cruising at 80 miles h.....looks like Im not doing more that 50kph..lol. And the quality disappears...definitely not high def...after its on YouTube...probably because Im not on the YouTube premium chanel ?

We have always jumped between the main 3 but I hear they're all pretty crap now with very long waits. Haven't ever had to use them.

I have been looking at oil. The Castrol 5w40 I have always used on the GS has changed last year or something like that. It might or might not have helped the bike get a little bit of oil consumption. So, over the next few days it'll have Liqui Moly 5w40 Street Race put in, it's a highly detergent oil. Then in September I'll be going to Ireland to visit a few friends. Sometime in October or November or December I shall go to Morocco so probably need to change before that. That oil change will probably see Ravenol 5w40 put in, Ester based. We'll see how that goes, I'm hoping for some improvement. Worst case scenario is it stays the same.

It's a Ducati, so probably back to the workshop.

You need a chase mount.

Back to the workshop, or back to you?

She's back

Wot, no Moose

Does it have image stabilisation? If not then the place with the least vibration the better otherwise it's unwatchable. A lot of action cams have built in software to take out the vibration but you can also do it with processing software afterward. The image stabilisation on the likes of GoPro and Insta is very good.

Consider putting the camera back on the bike, like on top of a pannier or sideways to the topbox. The farther back you get it, the more speed sensation you get.

For the wind noise, just put a little bit of tape over the microphone.
