SWEET CAMERA!! :-o :-o i wish i could just go out and spend that kind of money on a camera.

Well 89kaw things weren't always the way they are now and there was a time when I could barely afford gas in my bike let alone aftermarket parts but a good military career and decent job combined with a wife that buys a lot of crap which makes it ok for me to buy a lot of crap :)
The key is trade off value with the wife she buys some goofy girl crap for $20 and I buy a $100 part lol and she never seems to notice even though college educated has her BA in psychology cumme summe laude or maybe she is just using psychology on me and plans on spending a fortune on something I'm not sure :)
I'm 43 years old and fairly comfortable with everything paid off from cars to house and property so it makes it easier to buy crap but I was thrifty when I was younger so I could have everything paid off at this age. The wife picked the camera out and it looks like a dandy I should have that video with sound up tomorrow my question is how do I make it so you can see it and hear it?

LOL yeah that should be about it but turns out the battery is flat out dead on this recorder :( but the good news is that my wife took a nice short video on her ipad so if you shoot me your email I can send you the file unless there is a better way of putting it on this forum and that's the trouble I was speaking of I haven't ever posted a video clip so if you pm me your email I can send it in a file (wife figured that part out) but she's the smart one out of us :)
I don't think it's any louder than my forest approved long ugly silencer and I ordered new packing for this shorty that is supposed to be real good stuff (made in usa) it's made right here in the good old usa too so I'd rather buy made in usa than the foreign stuff when possible sometimes you just can't avoid foreign stuff it's not made here like our bikes lol.

Get the pillow it's much easier to work with and has trim spots so you can trim it without messing it up and I ordered the 19" so I will have plenty of material to pack it tight can't wait to repack the silencer with this stuff and I really don't think it's louder with the shorty and turns out the welder that did the silencer just put the old used packing back in it so the stuff is in bad shape and I reckon it will be even quieter with the new stuff.

you wont be able to send a large file through email . you can post the video through photobucket or youtube.
