Видео

Thanks so much Tim for putting together this video. Many of our users doing motovlogging they have being setting the input gain at -5db inside a closed helmet. I would recommend disconnecting from our app when streaming to the camera too. Let me know if that helps improving the audio. Ride safe, have fun! Michele - Instamic CEO

If theres a gain level on the mic somewhere, turn it down to minus 5 or 6, it'll clear up the crackle of the audio.

I’m a fan of the camera. Tweak the db level and your be near perfect

Tim, your video experiment here was a victoty in improved videography! Keep up the great work!🏍️👍😎🤭⭐⭐⭐ Doug

I like the clean look on the helmet's outer shell. Test it in different positions. It may or may not work better away from your mouth. Don't know the specific instructions. As far as work goes, get that done first and we all will be waiting for the next video whenever that happens.

Sounds fine, soon as you make the call you're happy using it, stitch a patch over the bottom magnet to keep it there. Probably won't lose it on the road but when you put your helmet down or on bike sissy bar etc...

Why do you have less views and likes when you make such great content. Keep going man👍

Great video Tim. You've done good again! Doug ❤️🏍️👍

Thank you, this will help me SO MUCH, I can't wait to get my bike back so I cam try these techniques out! Will you do a video on breaking in a curve?

Can you explain the accessories you have. (Not so much the camera items for filming but all the others.) Like the u shaped mirror, amd the tire guage, cup holder,and the bag i see on gas tank. What they are, how they connect to the bike, and if you have a link so you could get commission if we bought it. I know I want to get the tire guage thing and I need a bag to put my gun, and basics like gum, insurance and registration.. to name a few. Just not sure what to get

I think its a personal choice. When I ride behind my hubby I wear knee short, sneakers and a T shirt, but when I start riding my bike by myself, I will wear Jeans, boots and , T shirt (or when it gets cooler a jacket and chaps ( which i need to buy before that time.) But I think as I get more comfortable riding I might go back to knee shorts. But we see. As for a bike or gettinv a new one it is according to how much I drive this one. Hubby says i I ride a lot he will buy me a Harley next year. It wont be a new one but there are a lot of new Harleys out there for sale. I might just ride my 750 til the wheels fall off. I mean its in excellent shape. It had 977 miles on it when I bought it. I am still breakkng it in at new stage.. if I add a little chrome to it. It look even better. So i may just keep it ...

I think you might not have a sis in law..... cause of you do you be running for your life after this joke🤣

LOL you know it does sound a little like a honda when your stating off 🤣 Just dream about your Shadow you might feel the wind in your hair.... 😂

Great video! Thank you so much! I totally agree with you,, be always aware of who and what is around you. I also agree with the not flipping someone off is just putting me in a worse positions.. Don't drink and dtive there is little between you and the road...

Breaking?

This is great. I do feel just like you every day I ride. I am practicing even tho i have been riding for years. I have been around long enough to witness how driving has changed drastically 😢

Braking

Great advice Tim. Never taking any ride for granted. Trust no one! Love the fact you are able to upload more these days.

When braking from real cruising speeds (let’s say 70) try to leave the clutch engaged as long as possible. This will make bike much more stable on the trajectory. Don’t be afraid of stalling the engine-it won’t happen as long as wheels are spinning. Leave the whole clutch/downshifting business to the late stages of the process. Focus on progressive braking. Ideally the whole thing goes like this: Roll off the throttle (important:), then start with rear brakes. Fraction of second later start to progressively applying front brake. As the front suspension loads up go easy on the rear to prevent wheel lock and sliding. As we still have our clutch engaged the torque from the engine keeps the rear wheel from getting locked. As the speed have dropped to about 20 mph you may pull the clutch and start downshifting.

Right on point brother

Scary as bike to pull up on, cruising 100kph/65mph and a cattle truck pulls out infront of you. They're slow as so the distance you see is all you have to pull up... Can cheat on drum brake bikes, set rear to not lock up.

Great tips man

People say no, but I feel the 03 Ace & Aero are bigger then my Spirit 750

A number of years ago i almost went down on my old shadow, cruising up to a light here in town, light turned yellow, i grabbed almost a full fist of front brake, was some gravel pebbles on the road, was in the spring so it could of been left over from winter, front tire kicked, and i managed to release the brake and came to a stop before i ate pavement. BIG time learning curve... Great video and lots of good info!!

My Blue Shadow

I've got the winter gear ready to go... Coldest ride was 400 miles in 24°

Tim, great video here. Nice work on the 360°camera as well! 🏍️👍😎Doug

Tim, thanks for the product test of the air moto tire pump! It is a "must have" tool in your bags on your motorcycle at all times!👍🏍️😎😇 Doug

I am 65 and still riding. I have a Honda Shadow 750 Aero and a Harley Ultra Glide limited as well. I am not stopping anytime soon. Thanks for sharing your riding experience and knowledge. Your videos are much appreciated.

Thank you for the video. To old to ride? I may have to go to 3 wheels but hopefully it is a lot of years away.

That is awesome! Thank you. I am having a hard time putting my left leg down. I am more confident in my strength of my right leg. So I tend to throw my right leg down first. Trying to work on changing that behavior... Thank you for the video

Thanks for the video. Great info! Talking about the friction zone on where the bike starts moving. Do you have a preference where that release point is? On my bike it is almost at the very end of where you release the clutch so it seems like I am releasing the clutch forever before the bike actually starts moving. I think I be more comfortable if the bike started moving when I get about 3/4th of the way out with the clutch. What are your thoughts on that?

After looking around and sitting on a lot of bikes, I have come to realize that my "dream" bike is not a brand, but rather its a "style" a "look" a "feel"...challenge is finding a bike that fits those for me in one bike lol like the Dyna I had, it had the style and look I wanted, but not the feel, my shadow has the style, and look that the Dyna did, but has the feel I like but not the comfort I want for longer trips without changing the look by adding comfort modifications. My choices are now narrowed down to 99-2003 Yamaha road stars, 99-2005 Suzuki intruder/boulevard 1500, and 99-2005 Kawasaki Vulcan nomads or the Harley Dyna switchbacks

Tim, I think riders up north plan that one last HOO-RAH "ride" of the season-to close that years riding season. Then sit in their garages longingly looking at their "2 wheeled iron pump" whining for "opening day" of the next riding season!🏍️👍🫥🤭😵‍💫 Doug🐻🤓

Definetly getting it out as often as i can in the winter... we'll see what winter brings here in Canada... Might dig into my carbs to see if their still clean.. usual maintnance lmao the horns are TERRIBLE!!!

I love the video. I just installed a set of heated grips on my bike this morning. With the first cold front of the season coming through tonight, it will help extend my riding time.

I'll ride as long as possible. I'll be 70 in 10yrs hopefully still riding.

How do you love something that doesn't love you back and I have been riding for years and never heard my motorcycle till me that it loves me. My love is for my family! It's a motorcycle, Stay Righteous!

I bought a 2000 shadow today. Can't wait to start riding it.

I mentioned before I bought my Shadow right off the showroom after nearly 30 years out of the saddle. The season is rapidly come to a close here in Alaska but right now it's any day I can get out I do. I'm going to keep at it right up until the snow flies though. No plans for this year but putting together a camping kit over the long winter here north of the wall.

God willing I'll be riding into my 80's. Love the message and comments proving it's possible. Ride safe bud!

You asked if you left anything out. On the Aero I noticed there is a pedal on the right which I presume is the rear brakes.

I am looking to buy a Honda Shadow and I checked out a 2004 Aero tonight. What are your thoughts on that one? Anything I should look for before I buy it. I had a Honda Shadow 600 25 years ago and that's the last time I rode. How does the Aero compare to the spirit, Ace and any others?

You can tell I am a newbie. I did not know they had "riding" jeans. I have a few questions. Do they fit like regular jeans like loose fit levi's.? I am not much on tight jeans on a motorcyclee... Just to be honest, butt sweat is not fun. All that might be nerves and as I ride more that will be less 🤣 ....

340 days a year here in VA. Yes, yes I'm bragging. I'll ride for those who can't.

Thx for the shout out!!!

What about a video of what parts you change out for non factory parts? And any special perk parts you have on it (like i saw the one that measures tire pressure)
