[Ruckos87]

Noooooo!! What happened mate?
That's the worst kind of footage... or is it kneeage?

Elbow. Actually I was supprised how bad it was, I drove to the hospital.
To much gas lost the back end, and must have cut the throttle. I'll have a look at the footage in a couple of days

Got 3m black satin wrap in the shed, might have a play.
Yep was lucky with bike and myself.
Thanks again on the bar, will bring you a replacement next weekend

[stevem]

Your going better than me Lee. My engine let go yesterday so I'm out for FX.

Quick one re wrapping Lee. Stay with the good shit. Having wrapped my second set of fairings now the difference between a good vinyl wrap and a notso good (read cheap) are light years apart.
The 3m is so much more workable, washable and durable than any of the cheaper ones i've used.

And don't be tempted to use a blade except to cut the vinyl off the roll. The knifeless tape is the shiz once you get the hang of it.Really easy to get a good butt seam by using 2 strips of knifeless tape on each join.

Gets fucked, really Steve! That's no good at all.
Hope it's as miner as can be mate. If you need a hand, just ask mate.

Yep 3m all the way. A few people have said to stay away from the cheap shit.

Seen the knife less tape, never tried it, but if you say it's good, I will give it a go.

Thanks for the inside tips

Noooo!! This sucks man...
What's the plan for re-build or has it got to replace?

[Turbo]

Your talking to him

Nice! Can you do a 'How To' after you've learned from all the mistakes?

[stevem]

It's a replacement Owen, a couple of decent holes in the cases. All good.

I could do with a replacement Owen! Hahaha...
So will it just be new cases or is there more that'll need to be swapped out?

Shit not good to hear! Did you at least get a decent go on the new suspension before it let go?

[Leezx10r]

Think I can do that for you all

Just as screen shot video, but tell me what you guys think.
I think I got on the gas a bit early lost the back and over corrected ???? I pretty sure I diddent chop the throttle but not 100% sure it happened pretty quick
I over took a guy on the back straight prior so entered the corner a little narrower than my usual line. Not sure weather that was part of the issue?

Looks like you got on the gas too much too soon on the small part of the tyre and chopped it else it would have low sided

What tyres were you running, Luke? It looks like just a bit too much gas on a not-so-grippy tyre. It's not 'oh clearly that was wrong', so probably just one of those things. Assuming the tyre was good....

Hmm I must have chopped it, that's one thing I thought id taught myself not to do definitely on the gas to early

Tyers are Metzeler slicks only 5 sessions (south circut) old. Heaps left in them.
I'll put it down to a little inexperience., over eager on the gas, need to stand the bike up quicker. Live and learning guess.

Do you have the video with audio?
That might help to hear what the revs were doing...
It does look like your right arm comes up after it begins to let go tho.
I wouldn't be too hard on yourself about chopping the throttle tho, it's a survival reaction after all!

[Ruckos87]

Will do once I'm back at work home pc is shithouse.

Instead of starting a new thread, I thought I'd revive an old one.

What's the deal with camera mounts?

I've heard conflicting versions & the SU site is shit to navigate for clarification.

Will it pass if you mount a GoPro or similar externally (front number plate) and, can you use a suction cup mount?

Cheers

[Carl-52]

No suction cup mounts. has to be an adhesive or clamping mount and it has to be secondary tethered to some thing decent... (zip ties work as a teather to a hole in something)

[Carl-52]

if you do both of those you will be fine... It has to be mounted before scrutineering so they can see its mounted properly.

[Dunno]

Thanks for the info Carl.

I'm off to buy more adhesive mounts.
