Oh heck yea, that mount will keep that camera moving. The best mic I found so far is PurplePanda mic. The question is if it is universal. I found a great deal on price for a GoPro Hero 7. I’m still looking, but when I find something good I put the links here. Thanks for the camera mount Jerry!

Well were not under a complete lockdown, were under partial for 15 days. Mail should still run and gass stations have to stay open, stores have to stay open. Everything else is closed. Im hoping and keeping fingers crossed she will still come in but it may not for the moment. But we have to have a pass to leave.

GA shelter-in-place allows

Might be a better option for you. If it is a "Hawk like bike I may have just the sweetest Speedo meter for you and the fuel gauge part works as a volt gauge, adds RPM on dail area etc and multi options on back light. (Post office shipping currently super slow if it is sent to L.A. yet if it goes to JFK it is rather fast, all randomly sent to each entry point of the USA tho) |

The DF250RTG might weigh less than the X22R, but the X22R is more aerodynamic. Weight plays more of a role up to highway speeds, and Aero plays a bigger role past that point (usually right around 55-65mph). Also keep in mind Jerry has re-gear that bike, de-cat the exhaust, and install a 30mm smooth bore carb to reach that speed,
That said, I have no doubt that with the right gearing a DF250RTG could likely peak close to 75mph. It will probably be tapped out to get there. The CSC SG250 hits 68mph out of the box, so it's possible.

The DF250RTG is not a digital speedometer type bike. It is a plain bobber. Also it has a reserve on the petcock so when you run out of fuel in the on position you switch to reserve. Nice and simple.

That is awsome, i didnt think it would have a reserve.... Noice love the seat on the bike, really fits better than the stock seat. i will be changing mine.
Yes, I think I'll leave the speedo alone. I have a portable gps I'll be using to track my miles so I will be able to know when to fuel up. Also gives me the ability to use a gps when needed. Last edited by KyzoSoupz; 04-06-2020 at 11:45 AM. |

That's great. Be sure to start a thread on your bike.
