Not exactly raising me there ;)

Off the road it was 6 feet high in places! Check out my latest video if you want to see it.

Thanks for the info guys, the Xoami Yi one is a good shout for budget commuter and next after that is a contour roam then a GoPro session. Dont want to spend a massive amount but would sacrifice the fun factor over the commuting.

Yep that horrid crossing, its still horrid even with no booths. People lane change right before the 4 splits to 2 lanes and the left tunnel entrance always has red lights due to dangerous goods. (fuel tankers etc)

Thanks for the info guys, give me a couple of bits to research more into.

Innov c3. That is all

Craig321 · 26 Feb 2016 at 08:05

If you're using it for commuting every day, then Contour probably wins for convenience because of the big slider on top, which can be used with gloves, that switches it on & starts recording.

Think of battery life too, plus swappable batteries is a big plus. My Yi on a single battery lasts my entire to and from work commute, around 1 hour 20 in total. I bought 2 extra batteries with slight higher capacity which work great.

That's why there's a wink, just like in your post

Kreeeee · 26 Feb 2016 at 14:55

Good luck.

TallPaul_S · 26 Feb 2016 at 15:32

Well done mate, when can you take your MOD1?

tom_e · 26 Feb 2016 at 16:04

Got my leathers from Sports Bike shop this morning, jacket is a perfect snug fit. Trousers are too long the knee sliders are around mid shin, going to pop into town tomorrow as there's a kit shop that has someone who does alterations so I'm going to see if they can create something for my little legs.

TallPaul_S · 26 Feb 2016 at 16:07

Might be a stupid question, but you have sat with them on, on your bike haven't you?

The legs will rise up as your legs will be bent and your back bent, so they'll be ill fitting off the bike but when on the bike they'll fit better.

+1,

Thanks for the support btw, I called the guys who I did my CBT with. I can't prebook it yet, I'll have to call on Monday as that's when they'll know the dates.

CB650F is the bike, but if someone is doing DAS on that day. I'll have to ride a CB500... :mad:
