Thanks Paul. The early videos I posted up were all uncut, straight from the memory card - but I am enjoying teaching myself to edit and get a bit more creative. Takes quite a lot of time though when you don't really know what you're doing! 😂 Your one hour plus rides are great though, I enjoy watching them!

@@stevew9810 I do not like to tell people what software to use, but I can suggest programs I have already used. Maybe I should put that in the description...

@@PaulsMotoZen I'm using Cyberlink PowerDiretor at the moment. I was using Microsoft ClipChamp initially when I first started editing. PowerDirector does a pretty good job with image stabilisation of the Sena footage (as the camera has no built in stabilisation), and it seems to work well for what I've been doing with edits etc so far - but I'm always open to suggestions/recommendations!

Thanks Kev. I'm happy enough with the evo footage and audio. Just a few "teething" niggles to sort out and I think the combination of the DJI and the Sena will be a pretty decent set up for a hobbyist. I think possibly you're right about the camera rubbing. I actually noticed that when I was editing and thought maybe that was causing it. I moved the camera down the helmet a bit from where I initially put it - so that you could see more of the bike in the Sena footage, and maybe that's caused it to be too close to my shoulder now? I think I'm going to have to experiment more with the placement of the Sena on the helmet and find the best place with the least issues. All part of the fun I guess 🙂 Incidentally, on my ride to work this morning, I put a little piece of insulation tape across the jog wheel on the Sena. No beeps whatsoever for the whole 40 min commute!

Thanks Paul. It's all just a bit of fun anyway, so yeah, I guess you're right. Just do what you like doing and share it. Some may like it. Plenty won't. But that's just the way of the world! Incidentally, I need to find some time to sit back and watch your latest video too!

Thanks Kev, one downside to the larger files is I don't know if my laptop has enough processing power and RAM to cope with them, but I guess I'd need to try to see. That is definitely a plus side to 1080p for sure! I'm hoping to do some more experiments with the editing and resolutions etc and am sure I'll work out which is best/most manageable for me in the end. Part of the fun of it for me is the editing and seeing what results are achievable with only minimal knowledge. I've seen a video on replacing the 10C battery and yes it does look relatively simple, so that's an option too. That said, I do need a new crash helmet and a lot of stores over here in the UK offer a sizeable discount if you buy an intercom at the same time as the helmet - so IF I am going to replace the 10c, that would certainly be the time to do it!🤔 And we all love shiny new stuff, right? 😉😂

@@stevew9810 yes we all certainly love the shiny new stuff....looking forward to catching your 'new' vlogs....🏍

Thanks mate 🙂 Just be prepared for the Vintage Nostalgia Festival this year. I think I'm going to try and film a lot more and make a little compilation video to post up here. 😁

The Interceptor is a beauty for sure, but wouldn't it be boring to stare at the tank for 16 minutes?

I definitely didn't have the urge to try and keep up! 🤣🤣

Thanks Paul. Your videos are good quality considering the GoPro you use is considered "old tech" now. My 10c is also "old" too I guess, given that it's been on the market many years now. I bought my Sena second-hand from ebay, partly because I wanted an intercom and partly because I quite liked the idea of filming my rides- but I didn't know how much I'd use it as a camera so didn't want to spend a lot of money on something I'd rarely use. Turns out I use it quite a lot, often just in "tagging" mode so it runs on a three minute loop, more as a "dashcam" when I'm commuting or riding a route I often ride, but I do enjoy filming a complete ride every so often too. I may upgrade it at some point to give me better quality than 1080p, but am unsure whether to stick with the all-in-one and go for a Sena10c Evo, or 50c, or go the GoPro route. The beauty of the Sena is that it can record the audio really well without any extra accessories, including the conversation between riders. Or maybe I'll splash out and get a 360 camera instead, to add extra angles to the footage?

@@stevew9810 I do not know why I do not talk much on camera. I can talk like crazy to hundreds of people, but not so much while riding. I guess while riding I am just enjoying the moment. I have even thought of doing a voice over or music to my videos. Who knows, one day I will figure something out...

@@PaulsMotoZen Not too much music though, I love the soundtrack of your bike on your videos 😃

@@stevew9810 Thanks.

More like between 5 and 10mph but yes, not particularly fast. What speed would you recommend, to remain safe and avoid causing or being involved in a collision?

Hi and thanks for watching! The pillion foot pegs haven't been changed from the standard Royal Enfield location. I know a lot of people do move them though, but it's not something we've needed to do as my wife doesn't find them uncomfortable - it was just her back that was aching on longer rides.

Hi Paul, many thanks for the subscription. It won't take you log to watch the videos I've uploaded so far as there's not very many!😂 I'm working on a kind of fitting and review video at the moment for a rack/backrest I bought for my Interceptor 650 - so it'll be the first one that I actually talk on. This is in part thanks to 2 wheeled willie telling me to just go for it and put my face in front of the camera - thought I'd try adding my voice first and see how that goes! I've subbed to your channel too - looks like you're in a lovely part of the world for riding!

@@stevew9810 You may not have many videos, but that is not what attracted me to your site. First, I look for motorcycle content that I would like. I try and avoid the stunt riders that put the public in danger. Things like riding wheelies, excessive speeding, and anything else which puts the public in harms way. I also tend to skip the channels that have just crashing, and people giving their opinions of what others did wrong, while never mentioning the wrongs they do. Okay, I am ranting again... I also happen to follow 600+ motovloggers youtube.com/@PaulsMotoZen/channels , so feel free to subscriber to any, or all of them. One way to get more subscribers is to post more on other channels that are motorcycle related, and just being active in the motovlogging communities. As for gaining subscribers, I had ten or less the first fifteen years my channel was around. I did graphics, and some short videos, but it was not until last year I started making graphics, intros, and outtros's for motovloggers that my channel started to get noticed. So, recap is that my channel is 16 years or so, and I gained 200 subscribers in one year. It is not a race to see how fast you can get subscribers. Just get out and ride, record whatever, and edit to your liking. Then share the videos you want to see. I am still rambling... Take care Steve, ride safe.

Thanks for the advice Paul. It's all a bit new to me (the editing side of things at least). The most I've done regarding editing in the past is to just clip and join videos, but I've started playing around a bit now, so may try and get a bit more creative with my videos. I uploaded a review vid for the first time yesterday and it's had more views in the first 24 hours than any of my others, so we'll see how that goes as I get better with the editing etc.

This is in the UK.

Yes, Salisbury 🙂

Definitely! I'm not usually one for group rides, but this one was relatively sedate and the only real "hooligan" was our ride marshall 😂

@@stevew9810 haha yes always the way!

I bought them from a local bike shop that had them on offer for around £100 cheaper than normal, but you can buy them from Hitchcocks or from Royal Enfield direct too. accessories.hitchcocksmotorcycles.com/accessory-shop/Silencers-Only/42342
