Thanks for the comment... It's part of the North Antrim coastal road here in Northern Ireland. This section on the 1st clip of the bike is passing by Dunluce Castle. Just outside Portrush
Wow, I enjoyed that little ride, you can't beat the sound of a Moto Guzzi v twin when it's allowed to express itself. What microphone do you use and where do you position it to get the great results you have in this video?
It did come out well. I use a ZOOM H1n recorder for this kind of better sound. I placed it inside a few bobble hats and then inside one of the pockets in a backpack. The Zoom has great Gain control so I didn't blow out the sound when revving out through the gears. I really need to figure out a better mic setup for when I am out on my trips as the FAF of trying to get sound to sync with video is a PITA. So I just rely on the camera's Media mod and the built-in Gain control, but sadly it isn't enough and wind gets the better of the recording after about 40mph.
Nice vids on both this and the how to Upmap - very informative. The bike sounds mint. I see you've upgraded your map from the EU OEM N Zard to this EU Zard FR ..... can you tell me why as I am currently looking to install SS decat headers with the same Storm end can and am unsure as to which Upmap map to go for. Thanks
@@chrismurphy4724 Thanks for stopping by and watching them...comments no matter how small mean a lot. 👍🏻 I tried the newer map just because I had it. And the Ass dyno said it felt a bit more grunt, it still felt just as smooth as the lower map. I decided to leave the more powerful map in place. I belive the top map gives 73WHP. And I can definitely feel it. The bike is punchier
If I remove the cat and boom box and stay with the stock rear factory canister, am I wasting time adn money by going with the booster plug and not straight to the download upgrades? thanks in advance and keep up the good work!
@@psalwasser I have read comments on FB groups of people that think they had success with the booster plug. But personally I didn't think it worked on my decat setup. I know Upmap have 4x different maps to accommodate various exhaust configurations. Personally I think it has made a great change in the character and power delivery of my bikes setup. I can feel the extra 7Whp they say I should get. Along with a superior snappy throttle response and added torque. BTW I owned a booster plug 1st, but sold it an bought an UpMap
Not at all. If you watch my other vids you'll see we get around. I always ride with a custom set of ear moulds and I use Shoei helmet which are regarded as very quiet. But me personally, I enjoy the sound 🔊 of a V-twin. 🔊😊.. And yes this is Dunluce Castle just outside Portrush 👍🏼
@@paulnorton497 I love the sound of the V85 now. It's not obnoxious, even when sitting at a steady motorway speed I can barely hear it through my music and wind noise etc.. But I do like to hear my bikes. The decat is from MassMoto (ordered direct from them in Italy, Giancarlo pushed it through faster for me so I had it before the TT last year. Video series on that here also) The Upmap I ordered from guareshi Moto. K&N filter off amazon. EVAP removal kit from Smart moto. Storm muffler off ebay store. NOTE * The sound you hear in the video is the mic sitting 10" away from the muffler in my backpack.. That's not what you have to listen too all day on rides.. You can hear it. But not as loud as the video 😁
@@buckymoto1784 Thanks for that info bucky. You have used the Storm end can, which I like, BUT the T800+ doesnt seem to cover that when I read its update blurb? Being a humpty myself...what do I do in that case? You seem to have nailed it and I don't want to cock it up when I come to fit it all!! Really appreciate your input 👍.

Thanks Bucky!😊
Beautiful road and gorgeous sound.

Good golly that sounds proper good, love it
I'm glad you like it. There didn't seem to be a good clear recording of what a full exhaust system sounds like on YT. So I made my own 👍🏼

Portrush? beautiful scenery and sound of the can rocks. Is it too loud for touring?

Hi again Bucky, sweet sound did you buy in the UK? Where from please?

@@buckymoto1784 Thank you for the reply! If you're in Scotland and think you hear your bike...it'll be me 😉

'Numpty' not 'Humpty'...spell check 😁
@@paulnorton497 I tried to tag you in a community post. I'm not sure if it worked, so look at my posts. I linked a picture of the map I use 👍🏻
How does the engine feel with those mods? Does it gain any power or torque?
In this tune, it definitely has more torque and wheel power. Upmap says you get 73WHP and I can believe it. The bike is also sharper throttle response
Ich will dirsen Sound, Bitte um Info wo ich bestellen kann....Danke
@@rizzutipasquale it is MassMoto decat system, Storm Muffler with baffle removed. Guareshi Moto Upmap T800 custom mapping.. K&N free flow filter.
