xDefinitely the slowest in the group, couldn't keep up with even the 750s on the straights riding flat out but I could break as hard or harder than many.

Some comments were "that's an odd one but you're really taking it round well", "it's handling really good in the corners" and "I was behind you for a while, it sounds amazing" :D

Unfortunately all my videos except one from one of the first laps were deleted.

So this is from a warmup lap, while still learning the track, so reaaaallyyyyyyy slow:

You mean the dash cam? It's a dash cam system I got in China, 1080p front, 720p back although they had with dual 1080p. It's fitted under the front fairing, above the front guard, you can see the front guard moving in the film. The microscopic cameras are then connected to a central recording unit which is in bubble wrap in a plastic bag under the seat. It's routed to the battery and to the accessory plug under the front left fairing so that it switches on and off with the ignition.

One of the options for it (a tenner extra i believe it was) was a GPS unit to get coordinates recorded as well as speed etc. I opted out of that one.

Sounds fantastic (bike & dash cam).
Where does the dash cam mic fit? There's hardly any wind noise.
Do you have a link to it on ebay/etc.?
