Chin Mount

I finally figured out how to tighten the chin mount to the helmet without the adjustment straps slipping. I just folded the strap over on itself so that it is twice as thick, and now the clamp holds it securely without any slipping. Woohoo!

A Visit to the Motorcycle Store

We went to RideNow Austin to pick up a part that we had ordered. It was a good ride and fun to do a little shopping at the motorcycling shop!

New Camera Angles

I mounted the camera to the handlebars and also used my chest mount for some new camera angles. I like these a lot!

Morning Ride

“Ready to Go” Cedar Park, 2022

Trying to beat the heat by going for a morning ride. But it was already in the 90s! 😫 Still fun, though.

A Bit of Maintenance and Camera Testing

“POV Test” Cedar Park, 2022

This evening I did a bit of maintenance on Kiki: check oil, check coolant level, and check battery water level. I also removed some wiring I had added to rig up a Garmin GPS unit that I no longer use.

Then I went for a few laps around my neighborhood testing out different GoPro settings, and I have found that on my GoPro Hero9, Wide with High stabilization seems to be best. This is for the chin-mounted camera position. I want to add a handlebar cam that points back at me, and I have a mount set up for either GoPro or iPhone. I just need to test it out. Maybe later this weekend. 😀
