Nice bike. You cleaned it up nicely w/o trying to change what it is. Camera seems to work well. Can you turn the sound off or is sound default. Reason I ask is been thinking of a bike mount camera but the vids I've seen so far look good on a lot of cameras except for the distorted wind noise on most.

Not sure, i'm still playing with it. It does have a threaded thingy on the bottom for a mount. I'd like to take it for a spin too and that 50mph wind doesn't make for great video sounds.

Very nice....True old school motorbike porn.

Great job on the tail lamp,  I put the same one on my 07 this past week but it was not even close to as elegant a solution as yours was..  You gotta love the look of the amal carbs..

Thanks for sharing.
