Thank you! 👍

Thanks. I love it.

Thanks. Ride safe!

👍

That’s great 😁

Thank you 😊

Congrats. It’s a simple setup. Sport glide comes with a usb socket , just make sure you use the longer cable provided by quad lock. I use the wireless charger + vibration dampener

Thanks. I've seen quite a few of them here. From what I heard Sport Glide is one of the top selling bikes in the whole Europe.

What do you ride?

My wife loves it, but bear in mind this has the more comfortable sundowner seat. As a comparison, I test rode a street glide with stock seat, and my wife was not impressed. She said she preferred the sport glide.

Thanks. The seat is the Sundowner. Very comfortable. Can’t compare it with a saddlemen as I never had one of those.

@@TheBikeFather awesome thanks brother, God bless 🙌

Thanks. Inside the cheekpad worked really well for the last 2 helmets. and running the jack towards the chin guard, and hiding it there when not in use. However, I just got a flip up helmet so hiding the jack inside the chin guard is not an option anymore so most likely I'll use an external recorded this time, and place the mic somewhere that I can easily take it off when not in use.

Could be the quality of the mic. I'm currently using a Purple Panda which seems to be popular with motovloggers.

@@TheBikeFather thanks for the advice. I’m using a lavalier which is plugged into my DJI wireless mic in my pocket. Even with transmitter gain in the minus I’m getting too much noise / popping. To be fair I’ve clipped it in helmet next to my mouth at the front, I will try and reposition somewhere else up nearer the cheek / towards ear and give that a try. Thanks again for the advice, much appreciated

In front of the mouth, you might get some wind. The cheek pad itself can act as a wind protector. Also try to close the front helmet vent, just in case its opened, as that can cause extra noise. ultimately, you need to play with the gain on your recorder, and lower it enough to pick up your voice, whilst avoiding a bit of the wind. An external recorder usually gives the best audio because you can control the gain, compared to having the mic plugged in directly into something like a gopro, as you have no control over the gain. GoPro automatically adjusts the gain based on it's enviroment, making breath sounds louder, and picking lots of wind noise. I have a very old video somewhere on my channel where I tested the mic connected directly to gopro vs external recorder. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0x5neJ6CDoE.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-naLVaMxrXDA.html it's all a testing game. You need to test multiple mics, different external recorders, and different mic placements, and see what works the best for you.

@@TheBikeFather thanks for this, great advice

This is the one I got www.motea.uk/windshield-compatible-with-harley-davidson-sport-glide-18-23-craftride-m-windshield-dark-tinted-wz14-a487767-0

They are quite popular, probably not as much as in the US, but there are plenty around. Cost is a factor too, since Japanese bikes are a lot cheaper than Harleys

@TheBikeFather interesting. Harleys are by far the most common bike here, despite the price. "Harley guys" are a meme, and they have a reputation for looking down on Japanese cruisers, and generally thinking they are the biggest badasses to ever exist.
