I bought a Max and just spent 20 mins researching... this is the best video out there right now on how to mount it on a motorcycle. Thank you! Definitely interested in a follow up re: editing and post production

[@AndrewHartsock]

Happy to help!

[@AndrewHartsock]

Here’s a video on my editing process 👍🏼kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKi6qaSgi5iHhrc

[@porkscratchings5428]

Great review, I’m going to get one for my son as he rides a bike and would love this. I was going to get him a reconditioned Insta 360 as cheaper than new but he told me to hold back as he wanted to look at the Max and said the price is coming down which it has looking at the GoPro site. He loved the Hero I got him last year but that got stolen. The main reason for the Insta was that everyone was saying it hides the selfie stick etc but now that you’ve shown on the vid how to hide the stick with the Max is great. 👍

[@deborahtchester686]

Thank you for the breakdown !!!! Especially the screw switch because I had no idea that was causing the blur, this is a game changer !!! Also beautiful home !!! Blessings ! ✨❤️

Thank you... I've been looking for a pole and clamp. I used 3 of your links! Ride Safe...

[@SandyToesDetecting]

Thanks for this, I know late in day but ordered a max camera, will look at your editing tutorial as thats what I really need to understand.

[@MotoritaFZ10]

Hi Andrew, enjoyed your video & checking out your setup/video footage. I am always looking for new ideas to try with GoPro motorcycle mounts…the MAX 360 is the best!

[@xZx31x]

Thx for the video! Everything I was looking for

[@patrickjarvis8413]

Nice tutorial! Great ideas. Thank you!

[@prettymucheverything1033]

Been thinking of ways to use it on my dirt bike (for more casual and specific video shoots). This seems to give some good ideas even if the terrain will be different. May have to reinforce it more

[@not_original5425]

Thanks for this, super helpful.

[@h2sectaylor]

SUPER helpful. Thank you!

Ohhh,never mind! 😅 thx for this video 🥰 i decided to buy one for me too

[@frenkybigone5641]

Thanks for your tips!

[@jeffhdpd782]

i have been looking at getting one of these. it would be great if you could do a video with the camera not only in the front but in the back and side to see what it looks like from those angles. that would be really helpful

[@TwoFourCharlie007]

Great ideas! Thanks

[@virginiatrailcameravideos]

I've seen videos of some folks saying the selfie stick extended makes it too heavy to be held by the usual double ball and mount clamp and it will break. They say to use another clamp (a double-clamp basically) rather than rely on the screw to hold it. Have you had any issues or concerns with the ball/mount clamp with the screws? Thank you.

[@smokeystarr]

Great video. I bought the mounts etc. Got great results. I would also like to know more about the camera settings you use. Shutter speed, ISO, resolution, frame rate. Insta makes ND filters for their 360 but it looks like GoPro does not, so getting good moto settings for the max 360 is a little different from my Hero 12.

[@bryanmuir2146]

Sound came through great, thanks. What are you using for mike?

[@ELKIRAM]

Great info dude the angle of shot to erase the stick was the cherry on the pie!

[@Jockstrap716]

Yes! Please show me how to do the editing and thanks for you most appreciated help!!!😊

[@cheetahking9114]

Should it still be held in that direction while snowboarding? Thanks for taking the time out to help us.

[@grizzly1548]

Thank you for the video.

[@MYK148]

hi thank you for sharing this idea, may i know you 360 video setting of this ? and what resolution did u use either 3k 60fps or the 5k?

[@mcsaini7536]

Amazing video

[@AndrewHartsock]

Thanks 🙏🏼

[@VHYYZ2023]

I really love how your gopro max works with your motorcycle. Have you ever tried it with suction cup on your car ?

[@bikesbullies9985]

bro you have to get the tst front blinker running light kit! GAME CHANGER On the Z900

[@bullpencycles]

How well is the sound from the Max when your riding, or do you need to run a second camera to catch your speaking? Or only voice over.

[@jelajahdesa88]

terimakasih informasinya sangat membantu

[@fueledbymusic3]

Damn. I'm ordering a mount clamp for my bicycle! I been holding the 360 cam and stick which gets extremely tiring

[@GoGoober]

Love it! Fellow Z900 here with a 360 cam. Never thought of using that 2nd angle! Do you also use that strap on the passenger seat to reduce vibration?

[@AndrewHartsock]

Hey dude I think I've seen you with Motojitsu before? And for the strap, I tuck the thickest part in-between my plate and the bike just to make sure everything is snug and all stays in place. I'm sure it helps with vibrations a little bit tho.

[@GoGoober]

@@AndrewHartsock Yes you're right! I've done about 5 sessions with him so far and one on track. Thanks for the tip on the strap I'll prob be using this method, love how our Z900s have the frame so exposed for the Claw mounts🤙

[@DanielWainscott]

great video

[@ianrambo5555]

Nice info. Do you know what causes loud noises while videoing in 360 mode

[@nataliehampton825]

Can I get some more info re editing etc, also do you mind me asking why you went Go Pro Max rather than insta 360 when it comes with necessary assorted like you have bought additionally

[@ArchetypeofMan]

What are you using for audio while you're on the bike? This was a super helpful video. Thanks man

[@AndrewHartsock]

I have a GoPro mounted on my chin with a standard audio setup through my helmet

[@ArchetypeofMan]

@@AndrewHartsock I'm new to all this. I have the Sena Spyder on helmet, would that work?

[@AndrewHartsock]

No I don’t believe so. Not familiar with that unit but I think that’s just for communication. I have a GoPro hero 5 mounted on my chin, the GoPro adapter for a mic hookup, and a mic running though my helmet and placed towards the front, in between the padding and shell. There’s a bunch of videos out there but I don’t personally have one on my channel.

[@FLGulfDiver]

Is there a way to mount the selfie stick if your wind screen prevents you from putting in on the handle bars?

[@pascalseybecke9205]

Can you do a video about How you record your audio ? My GoPro needs a huge aux adapter :/ it’s super uncomfortable to set it up Thanks 😊

[@reesie2995]

Hi, great video. However when I have my selfie stick attached to the tail of the bike like shown in the first option, the selfie stick always collapses after like 5min on the road. I currently fixed the issue by wrapping some tape around the joints. Does anyone else have this problem?

[@charliniano]

Hi .... Very good videos and didactics. I have problems installing the gopro player application, it asks me to update the NET Framework in some version, do you have any idea what the problem would be? Thanks a lot

[@jeffjohnson7828]

What camara do u recommend for a bagger? All i want to do is like a dash cam setup incase i get in a accident.

[@killertactics418]

How did you take the decal off the tank of the bike? I can’t get the decal off efficiently from my ninja 650

[@kingshango6828]

How would you set up on a 2020 R1? As in getting the view in front n behind while riding?

[@jeelsutaria2141]

Hey this is a great video! I just bought a z900 too haha. I wanted to ask how is your audio so clear? Do you have a separate mic in the helmet or the camera out front can pick up your voice from inside the helmet?

[@rxbejar]

my guess is he is plugged into the gopro on the chinmount...prob a gopro 10. You can hardwire mic to the media mod

[@noevirgen15]

what type of microphone do you use ?

[@charliniano]

Hello,, your videos are very good and didactic....... this time I wanted to ask you if you can vary the duration of the videos when they are recorded as they are automatically generated..... and that they will be less than 8 minutes .......? Thank you very much in advance,,,,,,

[@chadfiegehen9849]

Hey man great video did you happen to do the computer processing video?

[@danielyao1740]

Hello Andrew Hartsock. My name is Daniel I really like your tutorial I have subscribed to your channel. Im trying to figure out where you get the double clamp hooked to your motorcycle . And the long selfie stick for the go pro max ? I can’t seem to find the exact version of clamp through REI nor Best Buy nor Amazon. Not even Temu. Would you be so kind to provide me the link for both the selfie stick for go pro max and the special double clamp thats mounted to the motorcycle . ( in my case I’m trying to get it hooked to my road bike ) . Please thanks

[@AryanWirawan]

How you setup the mic/audio while riding?

[@thinkingimpaired5663]

Does your gopro have a feature in which you can produce a 360 view in which the viewer can pan 360 while watching your video. So an example is if the gopro is mounted up front of your bike and I can just move my cell phone left , right , up and down view 360 degrees VR around you without even using a VR goggles.

[@KangArgun]

360 degree greetings ✌

[@AndrewHartsock]

🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@StevenSchoolAlchemy]

Nice!

[@samcopeman7157]

You wouldn’t happen to have a link for the clamp you use would you? Really helpful video, have a Ducati monster 620s and am thinking of buying a GoPro max for it, but figured I’d do some research before hand to see how easy it is to use, think this video and your one going over the editing might’ve sold me on it, really helpful, cheers

Never mind, just seen it in the description, bloody legend mate, taking my bike round New Zealand in a couple months so gonna come in really helpful

[@NguoimientayArizona]

Hi is the go pro max does prevent wind noise by it self ja

[@bobhampt]

Great video. Thank you for posting. My only question is, how are you turning the camera on and off? Are you using a remote, or your phoee?

[@AndrewHartsock]

Nope. Just click it on/off when stopped

[@bobhampt]

@@AndrewHartsock I didn’t know if you used a remote or something other than a phone. I fine my iPhone has spotty connection with my max.

[@AVWATCHMEN.BALLGAMEtime]

I just got my max today with all kinds of attachments. I have a pretty decent size youtub3 channel as well plus I ride a harley. Can I connect a microphone to the go pro?

[@AndrewHartsock]

I haven’t figured out a way to connect a mic to the Max specifically but I’m sure there is a way somehow

I like it who's used their gopro max with flat mode sett, not curve/fish eye mode

[@KentRoads]

Can't add external mic to it :l

[@Moz42]

Good vid. I have a GoOro Max360. The camera is OK, video quality is not as good as my Sony action cams. The batteries, however, are garbage, considering the price. I've had this for 12 months, and 2 batteries have died in that time. Ride well. Cheers

[@barrontrump3943]

what is the name of the song you used for the intro? i want to use for my stuff

[@FLG8r]

Supposedly GoPro is developing the Hero Max 2; fans were disappointed when it wasn't released along with the GoPro Hero 12 late last year; still use Hero Max to capture 360 footage while driving, cycling, and mountain biking. Same rules still apply to conceal the extension arm.

[@spvimagery3527]

How about the audio quality of the max straight from the camera? Or did you use external mic? Thanks in advance.

[@AndrewHartsock]

Audio quality is good. Obviously lots of wind noise but easy to hear my exhaust still

[@MsRacingRooster]

Where did you you get the elastic strap you have around the tail to give the pole extra stability? And hold it in place better

How did you capture the audio on this vid? It was great.

The audio while I’m riding is coming from the GoPro that is mounted on my chin. Just a regular GoPro motovlog setup. The other audio like in the beginning was recorded on my iPhone

Great video, Just wanted to say you could probably drop your mic volume 25% or so, and the breathing noises/ mouth sounds would disappear. Thanks!

[@GoodBalak]

How's the audio quality when you ride? Does it pick up the bike sound well, or do you need a separate mic for it?

[@AndrewHartsock]

You’ll get a lot of wind noise for sure but you can definitely hear the bike still, and I have the stock exhaust too... If you want super crisp audio of the bike I would suggest using a separate mic tho
