Session 5 of a nice sunny day at cadwell park in the inters group. Shot on Sony AS200v. Edited on Garmin Virb Edit. 1080p 60 FPS. Both sessions mounted with a rear view as unfortunately couldn't find a flat upright space on the nose of my R6. A great day, few red flags including our 1st session when someone had an off on the sighting lap. Big thanks to MSV for a smooth running day. Hopefully il...

NC30 Dyno run, pre restoration
มุมมอง 2159 ปีที่แล้ว
Thought I would get a quick run on the dyno to see how its running. Never been on a dyno before so was all new to me. The plan now is to strip the bike over winter and replace many parts, then put it back on the dyno and aim for 60 bhp. Final bhp figure was 53.4bhp I think. Enjoy!

First ride on my VFR 400 Nc30 using SVC 200 action cam
มุมมอง 1.1K10 ปีที่แล้ว
This is my first ride using the SVC 200 action cam. Typical UK weather. I have stuck on a Rycote wind jammer as the wind noise is shockingly bad (still quite bad with the windjammer on). Next step will be to put an external mic into my lid to help reduce wind noise even further and hopefully start motovloging. ill also do an amateur review of my Honda VFR Nc30 too. Hope anyone that finds this v...

Did you wipe your ass when you got home and call it a shit
Fix your speedo!
Thanks for your comment. Though this video is 4 years old now and I sold the bike years ago, I thought I may as well comment back to you just to say although the original Speedo wasn't working in this video, another Speedo was fitted to the handlebars and was working. Another Speedo has to be used on that bike when the bike is fitted with supermoto wheels as mine was. This is because the original Speedo pickup cannot be used which is why you can see it not working. Hope this helps and all the best Sam
Is this stock exhaust?
This is the stock exhaust Cole, though from memory i'd say it was de baffled. At the very start of the video you can just about catch a glimpse of the exhaust. Hope this helps.
wath mpg or l/100 km do you get on normal comuting?
crazy portuguese can't really remember to be honest, sorry. Sold my XR quite a while ago now. At a guess I'd say between 40-50mpg if I was just going at a normal pace. They should be good on fuel as they are only a 400. I don't remember ever complaining about the mpg and if it was bad I'm sure I would remember ha! Hope this helps buddy
Is this svc200 and external mic?
Hi. Id like to know about the mic setup please Ive ordered a cheap ebay mic and 2.5 adaptor Both jacks have 4 poles (in the pics at least) I havent received yet Do i need a powered mic?
Hi mate, I did the exact same. Ordered a 3.5mm mic I believe, then ordered a 2.5 - 3.5mm adapter. All cost about £4 off eBay, thought I'd give it a go to see if it worked and it did! Seemed to work really well as you've seen in my other vids so for the money well worth while. I've since sold the SVC200 cam, will one day go for the Sony as they have image stabilization etc, but for the money the SVC was a great camera! Hope this helps. Sam.
Cheers. I have my mic and im just waiting for the cam to arrive from china. 👌
Yeah takes a while to arrive but mine came with a load of spares which was very handy! I'm sure you'll be happy with the quality for the money you paid
my xr400 will come up in 1st 2nd 3rd and 4th with out the clutch sounds like you have the wrong sprockets on there
I'm not sure what sprockets you have on, but mine were standard and there is no way it would power wheelie in 3rd and 4th. I'm 100% certain that on standard gearing you won't get the front wheel up in 3rd and 4th without using the clutch. I know mine could power wheelie easily in 1st and in 2nd if I did it right. Link a vid of you doing it though if you like :)
the only gear i whellie in is 3rd and i just lean back and power on and it comes up.
mate :) nice bike, i just road legalised my xr400 here in new zealand, im just wondering what sprockets you are running? is it the standard 15/45?
NzJohny Hi mate! I've checked out some of your vids before :). I'm running standard gearing as far as i'm aware, so my bike doesn't even like to do 60mph :\ lol. Currently waiting on some spacers so I can put my SM wheels back on :P.
0.41 into your journey and you get a knobhead worthy of a headshake. That might even beat my record.
Paul Groves lol I just knew when I was approaching the round that he wasn't going to wait. Thanks for the quick comment too :).
***** No worries my friend. I was thinking of getting that camera actually, been using the Muvi HD for a while but it its a bit high profile and doesn't have an internal mic. Have you tested this with the mic at all?
Paul Groves Ignore that, I just found your horse poo video :-)
lol no worries mate. Yeah pretty decent quality considering the external mic cost me about £2.50 on eBay haha. I think there are better cameras now though.
For that price though? I've found it for £80. Haven't seen a good res camera with a mic input cheaper than that.
Any footage with the waterproof case on?
Hi bacon. I think this may have been using the waterproof case. I would recommend avoiding using the camera without an external mic if you are doing speeds of 30mph + just due to the wind noise. What's the reason you would like the waterproof case on? Cheers Sam
Hi, how do i use external mic and case at the same time? It rains 24/7 in UK :/
I just bought a 2.5mm to 3.5mm jack, then bought a 3.5mm microphone (both cost no more than £2 each) and then plugged it into the camera and go 👍. I haven't modified my waterproof case to video and record using the mic at the same time, but if you could drill a small hole in the back of the case I'm sure you could poke the microphone wire through.
That is what i was thinking as well. Thanks for the info :)
No problem mate, happy to help :). I'm also from the UK by the way, where abouts are you from?
Haha enjoy mate 👍
Keeping me company whilst I'm sick At home :)
Awesome!
Haha cheers mate. It's better on the other video because I took out a lot of the wind noise by using £2 microphone lol 👍
Yeah I saw that. It's really clear! Upload more!! :)
Lol cheers mate, I should be uploading another tomorrow on my XR 400 😁
Yeagh Sam; I'm working on my sound today. Please try my 'Country Lanes' video for more about horse muck! I think in towns, it SHOULD be cleaned up. Oh and by the way, dog owners DON'T always clear up their mess; this area is filthy with it! Cheers!
Hi Sam- good piece (despite the weather) but I am using a Sony 30 and I think the electronic steady makes a BIG difference. Although I'm still working on the terrible mount and no external mic facility! Cheers
Cheers mate. I was considering buying the sony a30 but nearly double the price so I guess you get what you pay for 👍. I thought they did have an external mic option? Check out my other vid where I added an external mic that cost £1.50! Makes a massive difference in terms of eliminating the wind noise!
+Sam Foster Sam, I am waiting for my SVC arriving in the post. Buying on the strength of people like Techmoan's reviews. anyway one reviewer says he uses an old phone earbud and mic with the earbud cut off, says it works great? might give that a try. Dave UK
Hi Dave. Yeah it is a good camera for the money, but really needs a mic to stop the awful wind noise and weird ringing noise you get when it can't pick up sound. I bought a 2.5 - 3.5mm mic adapter and a 3.5mm mic off ebay (total cost was like £3 lol) and it works perfectly (as demonstrated in my "honda XR 400 review"). I would just buy that setup rather than cutting stuff but each to their own I guess and if it works for next to no money, winnning! :)
