your Guzzi videos

[eldointheweeds]

Have any of you make YouTube videos on your Guzzi? How many cameras did you have mounted at once? Have any links to your videos?

Nice! I'll check them out when I get off work. You have some awesome roads to ride.

Looks like you're using one camera. Is it chest mounted or on your helmet?

For my Spain and Turkey trips I used just my SENA helmet cams. For my latest trip through Chile and Argentina, I also had an Insta360 that I mount to either my handlebar or onto their proprietary selfie stick to get some of those nifty 360° shots—you’ve probably seen a few YouTube videos of that in action. And obviously you can easily pop the Insta360 off and carry it around or do the goofy selfie stick tourist thing (ugggh). I gently broke my Insta360’s mount due to a 35 mph gravel highside. Sent it into the company and they fixed it up.

I also have an Innovv K6 dual dash cam attached to my Guzzi V7. Acts as part safety/insurance, but I can just as easily begin to record.

I never got comfortable with regular dash cams. Tried a few times with my sidecar during my Mid Atlantic BDR trips, but between battery life, card storage space, and my attention span, buggering with them just isn’t intuitive enough for me to feel worth the time. Same goes with the camera drone that I had bought. My mindset is still stuck in “Let the other travelers worry about their footage. I’ll focus on the trip.”

Sorry,  missed that part of the question. I usually use only one action camera these days (GoPro 12), but in multiple positions depending on which bike I'm riding. Chest mount, handlebar, crash bar etc. And sometimes hand held. Variety is the spice... etc. Single point videos are boring. I also add static shots, video from off the bike, drone shots, whatever I can think of to 'tell a story'. You can never have too much footage or variety. I use a tiny fraction of the footage I shoot. Brutal editing is critical.

Haha. Nice one Lee. It's the same on my Quota (and the previous one).

I thought about starting with one camera and putting several quick release mounts on the bike so I could move the camera around easily to get varied shots.

I have a bunch you will have to sort through the other videos.  These days I am using an Insta360 X5 360 camera and a chin mount DJI Action 5 pro.

Here are a couple of videos I've tried making.  No talking, just riding and the sound of the V7 850 Special with stock exhaust.

Here's a short showing the Kisan headlight modulator, and the Skene P3 break lights I installed for better on the road conspiscuity.
