My partner’s Harley doesn’t dwarf my scooter as much as I thought it would. The garage is a work in progress and we have too many bicycles. I just got my quad lock today, so tomorrow I’ll probably pull off the ram mount.

How much extra did you have to pay to unlock ClutchFree.exe

I love that color combo! Wasn't there an electric motorcycle that came with a manual transmission?

Whoa, another Zero in the CA house!Nitrox posted:Wasn't there an electric motorcycle that came with a manual transmission? The only other early electric bike (along with Zero) that I can remember was the Alta Redshift, and I don't think it had a multi-speed transmission. It's moot what you can call a transmission on these, on a Zero that's two sprockets and a belt, but I think the Alta had a fixed reduction gear. My local dealer had one but I never rode it.

There’s a french company that makes an electric trials bike with a clutch too. No gearbox tho.

I had to go look up what whisky throttle is

There's always some kind of form of traction control it keeps you from flinging this thing into the sun. Simply because you can get 100% of torque from the dead stop, which in itself is suicidal

I keep forgetting tech on bikes has gotten that far already. When I took my CBT recently the owner has a massive BMW adventure bike which had basically every bell and whistle that a car does these days.

That sounds like it could be quite scary on something with the torque of an electric motor It's amazingly easy to control and not kill yourself. As mentioned, there are ride modes with less than full power, but even in Sport with full power, you have traction control, lean-sensitive stability control, and ABS. You can give it full throttle from a stop and it just takes off, no drama, no wheelies, etc. Same thing coming through a turn or even with poor traction. It's seamless and works great. You can still turn that stuff off if you have a death wish though. Also the throttle mapping is tame at low speeds, it's super manageable and scooter like just putting around at parking lot speeds. Above 15-20mph is when things get really spicy.

I remember at the Zero demo event I went to, they kept telling everyone "Do not blip. Do not rev." over and over.

Gave the LiveWire and the BMW a wash: Fat Bob is at the dealer getting some work done (fork replacement under warranty, other bits and bobs).

Heh, the farmer generally keeps it in his shed or occasionally leaves it halfway up the hill in pic 4. It's red and big.

No self-respecting garage can survive without a dishwasher and a washing machine, note taken

I have garage envy, I've been unable to find one to rent as a mini workshop around here. Spots in shared garages are plentiful but can't be used for maintenance. I probably need to rent a barn from a farmer or something but they probably won't react well to an Auslander just asking around.

When we moved here a month ago, the new place had machines already. The machines here already aren't great, but our old ones are. I'll get em subbed in at some point when I have time.

I'm shortly downgrading from 4x6 metres to nothing, and hopefully maybe back up to 3x3.5 metres in spring. The one I'm in now has a cracked floor and leaks like a sieve though, so even a smaller one might be better given it'll be new. Also I can't get over how good the Livewire looks, it's just a ridiculously well-proportioned bike.

I went from a 3 car garage to a 2.75 car garage to a 1 car garage and the struggle is real. The only positive is it made me clean all sorts of dumb poo poo out that I had just moved from house to house in boxes that I never opened.

Whelp, this is a drat disaster. I thought that having the open case was necessary, but nooooope. Nothing but windnoise and bullshit. Here it is anyway, 26 minutes of constant wind noise. Oh well, I'll try better next time. https://youtu.be/ZLGQjli9wrE

I have a video that's about the same on my hard drive. I was trying to do a separate mic, but apparently the adapter I had didn't work so I had wind noise audio and occasionally me talking to myself at stoplights.

Unless it's chin-mounted, helmet cameras always have kind of a weird angle. I like to see my hands in my camera in addition to the road. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jII87t11onE My camera records audio from the mic inside my helmet unless I'm on the phone (wire tap laws?). It sounds pretty decent. If you're stuck with an external mic you can look into some "dead cat" wind noise reducing fuzzy stuff to glue on around the mic.

Yeah, I had to mount it on the side using a safety strap in addition to the sticky mount because my helmet is shaped kinda funky. My camera also came with a waterproof plastic enclosure, I'm gonna try with that one the next time I'm able to get out. Unfortunately I don't think it supports an external mic, I can't get any confirmation on that.

I threw out 4 trunk loads of stuff to the tip so far, along with a few large black bins worth the council collected. This is all because we couldn't be arsed to bin things at the old place and had the movers pack literally everything. I have more shite to bin (e.g. those suitcases depicted).

I have a GoPro chin mount from here: https://chinmounts.com/ Previously also just used Sugru. And, at least for GoPros, you can get a foam case that cuts down on wind noise.

I use this on my RF-1200, but the mounts that dema posted would probably be better. I just ordered one for my RF1200 and one for my Simpson auto racing helmet. With that mount and a wider angle on my GoPro I get a shot like this: It's like two inches below my eyes, so it's as close to my POV as possible. And the camera only comes up high enough on my helmet for me to see it's there, and maybe see the red light blinking.
