Â As a tip, @Marcel, the farther back on the bike you fit it, the more speed sensation you will get on the video. If you fit it up front showing nothing of the bike the video will feel very slow. Try a rear panier or the side of the topcase, facing towards the front of the bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted yesterday at 21:57 Share Posted yesterday at 21:57 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.
