New Vlogger Hoping to Start... Well i don't know when

[Darkzy43]

Hey Im Darkzy Or you can call me Kelv - Either way

I'm From Ashford, Kent, England, UK
At the moment i'm a self-employed IT Technician. I've been interested in cars/bikes all my life .. Got my first bike and rode it till it broke (aprilia rs50) repaired it myself and repeated that process ..
I'm currently working on a project bike and doing my full test.

I Ride a 1998 Aprillia RS50 but am working on a 1996 Suzuki GS500 for when i pass my test.
I haven't started VLogging yet but i wanted to start because i watched a couple of vlog vid's (rebelyell91, extreme601, deebaser93) and just thought it was something i would enjoy doing.

I Don't have a camera yet for vlogging due to lack of vehicle to vlog on. but i'm probably going to get the VIO POV HD or the Contour+ ... I haven't decided yet...

That's me in a nutshell and before i go here is a link to my Youtube channel (empty)

Looking forward to seeing your vids.
I've only just uploaded my first vid which is off bike because I'm more or less in the same position as you lol

Hope to speak to you soon and enjoy the winter riding lol

Hi Kelv and welcome!

A few of us on here use a GoPro HD and voice recorder combination.

GET THE DRIFT! It looks better on a helmet than a contour does.

[Darkzy43]

Shame it doesn't last long ... Im on my 4th rebuild (Can post pic of engine on kitchen table ifu want) .... I just needed a geared 50cc ... i'd be bored to the verge of suicide sitting doing nothing...

Aha! i'm pretty much in the same situation lol, post the picture if you can lol. On my channel i have alot of videos of my Rs keep breaking so if you ever get bored and need a laugh, check them out! lol.

I haven't had any direct sunlight issues with my drift, but if your heart is set on two of the best cameras in the market then all can't be bad. I look forward to watching another vlogger shortly, be sure to put a link to your first vlog on here once you have started out.

 

[Darkzy43]

Will do ... i was just thinking why start out with bad quality cam's when people are on 1080p vid's now ...

Nice to know people value their looks when riding.

Welcome to the forum buddy, & thanks for the sub. Let us all know when your first video is up and i'm sure we'll all go check it out.

 

[gpzDave]

Why has it needed to be rebuilt 4 times?

I was just referring to the fact he said the drift was ugly, if he thinks that's an issue the it looks better on a helmet than a contour.

 

[Chessecake94]

BTW out of the two cameras your set on, get the POV if possible. Personally I think the contour is prone to problems and for some reason are getting used less and less now.
