i've had my gopro for about a year and have yet mounted it. bought it for the sport bike track but never had a chance to use it. I've never been a big fan of helmet mounted cameras. what would be the best sport for mounting for dual sport?
there is a handle bar mount, but then you run in to another dilemma, will you get impaled by it it. Problem with a bar mount is it is fixed to only a forward perspective. You miss a lot by having it fixed on a dirt bike, unlike a sport bike on the track. Try a chest mount for the dirt bike, but if you're a casual dual sport rider, then a bar mount might suffice.

Also never been to McCain.
That's horrible.....if you can make the drive to CC (and if you drive all the way to 4 corners) then driving to McC isn't much of a difference in drive time. It's about another 30mins from the Pine Valley cul-de-sac off the 8hwy.

Stay hydrated boys and girls and know how to do it the correct way. It makes a HUGE difference on your health and riding.

Did not read the article, but I will say and others are on the same page, having a top mounted camera is no good when branches are part of the trail. I think a chest mount is probably the safest and secondary, a front chin-bar mount (as in very front). With that said, I've been meaning to remove my top helmet mount for a while now.

Let me know when you want to go to Corral or McCain and we can see if you like our riding or not. There are by far more able riders out there than I, Bob mentioned a few of the buggers, but I/and a few others I ride with like a challenging flowing day. Now what, "challenging" means to me, you or anyone else won't be seen until we make a ride of it. You are on a tiny bike, so you should be able to blaze through stuff with much less pains than boys on the bigger bikes with a heavy butt in the seat. It's more about the heavy butt...MIND and not the bike. Heehaw.

Its OK Chad, also just join Cafe Husky and be legit man....you have an orange Husky 350 anyway (right?), mine is a white KTM-a-Berg.
Delong's crew installed a XC big tank onto his AMA Nat enduro champion FE350 and used WHT KTM shrouds with custon PG Husky graphics to fit the KTM shape shrounds.....its all in the family now. (there is no big tank with Husky(Berg) shape shroud mounts)
Ha ha, totally forget Chad is on an Orange and we just rode together last Sunday. I guess I ride with too many Husky people.

Blake you have a Husky, use the code. If you're not on C.H., get on it.
I am on CH, same screen name. I have a Shorai lithium battery already in the husky.
Well there you go. I have two of them, but killed one in a long term sitting bike. All my fault on its demise. The one in my Husky is still going strong after at least 4 years.

There are Shorai batteries as well. I have two. On the acid free batteries make sure to read their care i.e., charging. If you ride twice a month you're pretty golden, but if you have a bike that sits for a long time they need a little charging care or they will die. Depending on the brand, but they can't sit on a float tender forever like an acid battery. They do sell tenders specific for these batteries.
The right care they should outlast a lead acid, reportedly two fold.

Chad, Call them up and ask for the discount to be applied.

Yeah wish we could have linked back up with you guys. Guess we got carried away on other loops. Next time!
No problem, as long as everyone got in a good ride, then all is well.

The "Big Rock" monolith with the climbing pitons is technically the northern boundary. FY'allsInfo
I recognize that one trail you guys are on, you know the one, the one with the rocks, manzanita and cactus on it......
Brett almost jousted his tank with a Manzanita at the top where he wheelies - see pic

ya i thought of that later afyer i drank some coffee...
i was thinking corral canyon for some wierd reason ..
my brain is focused on the uphill route of ranger .... havnt done it yet..any takers?
were you going up that rock or down it when you biffed?
Up, the pic makes it seem more dramatic. I was on a torque machine loaner and I did not want to loop her going up, thus I dork throttle/clutched it lost momentum with the front on the top and rear off the dirt (on rock), and had to bail out. I lost my footing at the bottom and rolled away. It was all slow and easy. Not a difficult rock by any means, well except for me trying it that day. Heehaw.

350thump, I have no idea. Honestly, I've been riding McC for years and couldn't tell you a single trail name. I could however tell you where various large and small rocks are located.

apex of all blind corners, coming at you! Evidently there is strong enforcement north of the Powerline, so I will travel the spine north then drop west to the fence-line to return southerly.

Helmet mounted go-pro - bad idea?

P.S. I've had Go Pro bar mount on my track bike fly off due to the intense vibrations braking the mounting arm. If you mount on a bike (anywhere), or on the body I recommend you having a secondary tether in keep it with you in case of mount failure.
