I take it the cops had a lot of speed traps that day that would explain the lack of speed?

PhotoBucket converts to an fl movie, and the player isn't smooth. IMO, it plays better in YouTube:

walt,
what gear were you in when you passed the truck? it looked liked 1st the way she ripped to 130 + after going by. well done,. guess the s/c puts the r/3 in a class by herself. no wonder you can't get any street races.

Third, and you can see her "jump" when upshifted... she'll bury the speedo with ease.

Extreme weight reduction + supercharger/cams = way different bike.

Thanks for the ride

Considering I will probably never have your kind of set up with the super charger, it was great riding along. Being an old musician, I didn't recognize the tune playing in the background but it really seemed to fit the occasion.

How hard is it to put a title page on the video, add music and get it posted on Youtube?

I could use a little "Learnin".

The tune was "Boom Shack-A-Lac" by Apache Indian. Mixing a movie is pretty easy with MS MovieMaker (free), or the better (but expensive) programs; Adobe Premier and AppleFinalCut. You download the raw footage from your cam to your computer, and manipulate it with one of these programs. Editing, adding music, and titles is simple. The trick (learning curve) seems to come when you try to save your finished movie. If you save it as a WMV file, the video quality is degraded. Then if you upload that to a video website, it gets converted again, and further degraded. I have found that if you save your finished movie as an AVI file, the quality is first generation. But you need HUGE disk space, and will have to be careful when you try to upload it to a website, as the higher quality AVI file is much larger, so the movie must be smaller to fit the website limitations.

This was my first attempt, not uploaded in AVI. As a "novice", I'd appreciate tips from more experienced users too.

BTW, I really like the helmet cam system! See: http://www.r3owners.net/showthread.php?t=2956&highlight=pov

looks like Va or West Va. I'm certain I've ridden that road. I want to say it looks like Route 50 or 22. Maybe even route 55 before GW nat'l forrest.
