[@888jackflash]

Dude! This is the SPOT! I just ordered a Go Pro 7 twenty minutes ago... with almost Zero idea of how to make it work with my bikes, (or how to make it work at ALL)... and you just opened the DOOR, Bro. Thanks!

[@HazeyAuto]

Here’s an idea for a follow up video from this: Editing. Software and hardware used, techniques, and all the other stuff that goes into editing and publishing a video on KZbin. Just like camera settings it’s subjective, but like many other viewers I really like how you put videos together.

[@jerryh2954]

2nd the editing idea. It would be very helpful

[@lapara14]

i just started messing around with moto videos myself, if you are looking into a really good free editing software, check out DaVinci Resolved. Found out about it a few weeks ago, tried, video looks amazing. lots of feature and will render to through 4K unlike some other programs that say they do but dont. If okay with paying, i noticed everyone tends to go for final cut pro for mac or premier

[@uBecRida]

thanks for this tip man. i have both hero 5 and hero 8. i'm going to try the settings you mentioned on my 8. I prefer using the hero8 for now because of the hypersmooth 2.0, it's way more stable and smooth especially here where I'm from where the roads are bumpy as hell! more power man! :)

[@Jeremiah-TwistedTrucker]

Thanks bro I needed this video. I bought my 8 black back in December and haven't been able to find that sweet spot. Going to try and do the settings now

[@JamesCAsphalt8]

I am so glad I found this video. It is the most informative video I have found. I just got a Gopro 10 and I have been wondering how to mount it and also how to get good sound. You have answered all my questions. Thank you very much!

[@digitalmotorhead5323]

Right on man, very useful info. I'm using a very similar setup and I agree hero 5 / purple panda combo seems to be a good mix. I use the Shoei GT Air 2 helmet and it actually has a lot of space around the mouth and it's very quiet. I didn't think about the space being a benefit till you mentioned that. Thanks!

[@shmo5150]

Been a sub since 2015 and have waited 5 years for a video like this. It was a long wait. But thank you

[@urvalify]

Not only technical on the motorcycles' side, but also being technical on the video front! Thankyou very much for this informative video. Always appreciating all your efforts 😉

[@Dirtywheels]

I got one stop solutions for all my confusions. Best way to mount a go-pro on helmet, a good idea about that dramatic effect (gained by playing with shutter speed and ND filter thing) and idea about settings for audio. Thank you so much brother, love from India!

[@Sanemancured]

By far the best information video that I have seen. Nice one.

[@xWKx]

Thank you MotoNosity, that's what I was looking for :)

[@mso008]

The best video on Go Pro set up for.helmets i've seen.

[@GoneWithTheWindGreece]

Thank you for this video dude !! You are awesome , i have the go pro 8 and i have problem with the wind noise , hopefully i will fix it , i try to get better and better !

[@pranay4915]

Watching your video I picked up a gopro hero 5 for extremely cheap as the store was clearing out the stock👍 Thanks man!

[@mikeharris7229]

Awesome video bud! Very informative. Much appreciated!

[@Lancellor]

Thank you so much for this video! I just got mine today for the Sedici Strada II and love it!!!

[@mipphillips]

Thanks for this great video. I'm looking for a set up and this really helped. Think I'll go for this set up. 👍

[@Richard-mz7qu]

Outstanding video! Great content info. Excellent ride video! I would like to see your editing process. Thanks for a great piece of work.

[@Clutchdumper]

just purchased a insta360 one x2 to get into 360 footage. followed your links and upgraded my hero 5 setup with the chin mounts, nd filters, and mic!

[@FRJohnny777]

I know this is an older video but so helpful. recently been playing with ND filters and have always wanted that "motion blur". Thanks for sharing the settings and tips!

[@zucledesma]

Cute. Nice setup. Thanks

[@hycrexxiaTP]

You're the best motovlogger, hands down. Cheers from Taiwan!

[@velvetandchester]

This is awesome! Has all the info I was curious about.

[@itstheclarks]

Ty soo much for the information and simple ways to get good quality motovlogs.

[@benjibiker6053]

Great video dude, have always wondered what the best settings are to use for the Gopro!

[@showd300]

Your tips has helped me lot thanks lot

[@adriang9942]

They have a chin mount for my helmet woohoo! Really helpful video, didn't even know this existed 💪💪

[@enzocasorran3104]

Excellent video man, very helpful!

[@triumphlucas]

I've wanted to record my rides since I started riding and didn't know what to get so thank you, this helped a lot. I picked up a Hero 7 Black, ND Filters & a Chin Mount for my RF-1200. Can't wait to set it up!

[@thetwowheeledintrovert3367]

I’ve got a similar setup, same helmet different GoPro, how do you go with audio? My external mic picks up too much engine noise from the bike - stock pipe and pretty quiet.

[@colbyclark2479]

How do you like your Hero 7? Looking at one right now

[@triumphlucas]

@@colbyclark2479 It's been great. Never had any issues and the picture quality is amazing. I can't speak on the newer models, but I'd recommend the 7 for sure

[@jasonadams5187]

Thanks for the awesome video and great content can’t wait for the next video

[@gabe7093]

Just ordered a gopro helment mount from chin mounts because of you 3/6/24 thank you

[@yungpaco]

You helped alot.. I will do some in my next Videos :)

[@ryanm9281]

Been looking for a chin mount for my new Biltwell Lane Splitter - just picked one up from Chin Mounts, thanks for the recommendation, stoked to try it out!

[@wenxuan_fan]

Hey, thanks for the instructions! I was trying to learn how to do this and your video is the most helpful and comprehensive among all. I have one quick question regarding the ND filter for Hero8. Both PolarPro and Lenskins are using magnetic attachment for their Hero 8 filters which were reviewed to be not very secured. While those comments might be biased, it would be great and much appreciated if you could help suggest one to use.

[@DrewsR6]

Thank you for this video! Super helpful

[@collinmc90]

dope! Chin mounts had my MX-9 adventure helmet I was surprised as it doesn't have much room for a mount but they got it! should be cool. can't wait to get filming.

[@resinatedcaser2121]

Stopped the video @ 1:44 and went to order! Glad I found this video!

[@Waffle164]

Would be amazing if you offered the LUT as well. I recently picked up a used gopro hero 5 and I'm excited to put together a motorvlog set up based on this!

[@Nightdragon199]

Just watching this vid for a good mount and realize you drove right by my exit at 10:00! ha, guess i have to sub

[@CrusaderGeneral]

When recording audio, nothing worked for me until I got an external voice recorder with a limiter. Without a limiter you will have clipping at high speeds from your voice competing with the wind noise. Joining audio and video is not a problem with most video editors.

[@2028E]

LETS GOOO THESE SETTINGS ARE SO GOOD

[@user-lk2bg4vp7n]

Always wanted to know the settings of the helmet in your video. Thank you for share those with us! I'm planning to post some video about riding bikes in Busan, Korea ! And your video helping me a lot to set my helmet! Thanks! I'm so sad that I can't get your goods in Korea ;(

[@trevorlenover4002]

JUST USED YOUR CODE! thanks!

[@Mototzigane]

That ND filter is a game changer! I have a pretty similar set-up, but with standard stabilization turned on (thanks to Indian roads lol) And for some reason I get good enough motion blur around the edges despite being at 60fps so I didn't bother messing up with that. Just got this new setup, I'm working on my version of this video as we speak. Thanks for this tho! Much love.

[@HalfdeadRider]

60 fps is so much better imo.

[@yosefbenyah8732]

Thanks for the tips man

[@yeshwanthgollaprolu]

Really useful man... Thanks alot ❤️

[@thvtsydneylyf3th077]

thanks man that was worth it

[@alvinkinds]

Thanks for sharing your experience. Awesome information.

[@Yank33PL4N3T]

Great video man! I stumbled onto this looking for the best GoPro jetski helmet mounts for recording and nobody else came close to being this thorough. Do you think the side mount w/extension to the chin set would be the best set up for that type of video on the water as well? Thanks and best regards!

[@quak2106]

Another option for ND filter is a company called Camera Butter. They stick on and off with a reusable sticky section. I use them for the gopro on my quadcopter. They hold up great to abuse as well.

[@VinCode17]

With the go pro 8 i put it in a media mod and avoided using that adapter for the mic. It's little nullify but beats having something else on the side of my helmet. It's a cleaner look.

[@AlexBuzina]

Really good guide man, thnx!

[@East_TX_LCR]

Sweet, they even had my bilt techno 3.0, I was about to give up and get a side one.

[@MRSMI13Y90]

Thank you this was my question on ur previous video now fully answered as a video.

[@afriendzy4]

Thank you so much you helped me out a lot 🙏🏽

[@r12rtpilot]

Excellent and informative...I'm watching closely and it appears I could do the chin mount on a Shoi Modular helmet, yes/. What is your take on mounting this and mic on a modular helmet? I am currently using a Sena 10C Evo, and it works fine, but the battery drain is very high...

[@dannyfubar3099]

Nice setup, thanks for sharing. Unfortunately that will not work on my Scorpion EXO.

[@1969Punjabi]

Thank you for sharing a great vlog. Can you please tell me how long your stock battery lasts on the Hero 5? If one is doing a long ride, what is the best solution for batteries. Thanks

[@WIGSLY]

Great video been struggling with popping noises in my audio forever just rewired everything hoping the new setup plus a couple things I picked up here help. I’m running two mics and a splitter so maybe that’s it

[@rensduurland4153]

What do you need to do in the settings for wind noise if you don’t want to set the microphone up (only the GoPro with the ND filter) ?? Love the video keep up the good work ❤️🔥💪

[@Taddpole1998]

Thanks for the suggestion, got a new helmet and didn't want to place it on the top again.

[@julie_society]

BEST VIDEO FOR GO PRO SET UP! HANDS DOWN! Very detailed and can he get a round of applause for the links in the description. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@xcivproductions8200]

Concerning the nd filters, the magnets for the 8 are really good with speed, not so much when you knock it by accident with your hand... broke one today at a light 🙄

[@stevebean7747]

Great video!!! Didn't see the link or description for the 3m adhesive double sided tape. Which one do you use?

[@zain670]

Make more vids like these. Helped alot brooooo

[@davidbusey931]

Great video! Couple questions. I don't ride a sport bike so the motion blur "makes me look wicked fast" factor doesn't appeal to me. For a more easy paced, touring setup, what would you suggest for settings? Also, I have a Hero 5 as well. How the heck do you get the little water resistant door off the side where the mic adapter needs to plug in?

[@SkepticleOrc]

Thanks my guy.

[@davidseard1321]

You’re awesome and been watching your channel for a long time. Just something to consider. If someone has a hero 7 or older then this setup works. But I found that for hero 8 all you need is a mount, panda mic and GoPro media mod, done. Easiest and best setup. Just a suggestion. Thanks for what you do.

[@carolinebishop3295]

i just got an 8 and need to order the panda mic and media mod. going to use my friend's gopro mount for the helmet!

[@Sticky_Slick]

Hey man, great video! Has there been any update to the GoPro Hero 8 ND Filter that might be more functional than a small magnet? Or do you know of any other motovlogs that can verify how the Polar Pro’s hold up at high speeds?

[@paulbridge6063]

Enjoyed the video, good solid info, what do you think , now the GoPro 9 has come out, you still sticking with the 5?

[@JHa77am]

I use a wrist mount on the chin. Have done for years, love it. Also love the 24fps

[@DamWGaming]

How does it work exactly? What does it strap to?

[@Karim2clean]

I used these exact settings at night time with no ND filter and everything that was dark looked great! But anything emitting lithe (such as headlights, tail lights, street lights, my dashboard) were super super bright and overly exposed. How would I be able to fix that? Should I use auto shutter with no ND filter at night time, or what would you recommend?

[@JeffWheel]

Thank you for your tips🤟

[@williamtravis9283]

enjoyed the video!

[@KeepinItSurreal]

Hey man great video. I'm looking at the liquid carbon atlas 3.0 due to the sale going on. I have a question about the shockwave, should I skip it and just use my packtalk bold? Specially to go along with this GoPro setup. What do you think? Shockwave or packtalk? And is the shockwave system compatible at all with the packtalk? Cheers

[@Dacious9s]

Have you ever attempted to connect audio via sena/packtalk? Also what about audio recorder around the pipe for more raw sound clips of the bike?

[@crayzbiker]

Thanks for the info! Although, I hate will this two sided tape we have to use, especially on a $800+ helmet. You would like we could have bluetooth microphones to reduce all the wire and tape.

[@roywalls5595]

Thanks telling about camera mount for motorcycle helmet!

[@manojthapa9456]

Love the content.

[@98Kentuckian]

Might throw my setup together again and make a video for old times sake

[@avishekm19]

Hey, I think if you wrap your mt-09 as the same color of your helmet it might turn out great. Only a suggestion, since we haven't had Mt-09 content for a while. Love your videos, easily one of my favorite youtube channels. Haven't missed a single video of yours!

[@kyebyrno8004]

I recently just got his whole setup for my GT Air 2, one VERY important point: be sure you have the right type of microphone for your GoPro. It must have a 3.5mm / 3 pole plug (not a 4 pole plug that resembles an earphones plug). There are microphones that are 4 pole, but those only work on phones (that have a 3.5mm mini stereo jack) not a GoPro. The simplest way to know which is which is to count the number of black insulating bands on the plug: a 4 pole plug has three, a 3 pole plug has two. Be sure your GoPro mic has two black bands. Im using the GoPro Hero 5 so i needed to use the extra audio jack connecter that connects to the microphone jack.

[@Light.Paintings_CL]

Hi, very usefull (as usual). A small question, how do I combine my mike from Cardo system with the mike from Gopro? Thanks

[@allgasnobrakes919]

Great video .. will the mount work with a ruroc dx1 snow helmet?

[@rocketsoda9188]

Hey Moto, been following you since the sv650 days! Any chance you can share your LUT? Got a hero 8 for recording my track days, would love to have a similar look to your footage!

[@captainklr6508]

great brief! Thanks

[@redeemedadventures]

Good tips. If I don’t have the filter … should I still generally use those settings, or are they specific to when you have a filter?

[@HalfdeadRider]

I have mine very similar but with the gopro mount and small straight extender, I also sanded the extender and tips of the part with the rubber on so I can angle it back a little more, so close and clean on the front. I also use Sugru to stick it down strong, then mask it and paint it to make it a bit cleaner looking. My mic adaptor is in a similar place too, but I've started using external audio again as either the gopro mic adaptor connector or gopro connector might be damaged. Audio is great until I accelerate or go above 50 mph and it just crackles and ruins the footage, I refuse to pay £50 for another adaptor, such a rip off, still gutted I can't use it all the time though. My stereo mic works great sitting on top of the cheek pad, no tickling of my mouth or nose lol, it is a bigger mic though, one of those Sony ones, had it almost four years and still works great. I have got others including the PP that I've tried over the past couple years or so, but for me the Sony is better.

[@ronalddeel7802]

Great video. Attempting to start V-logging this summer. I've filmed a couple short rides on my cruiser but want to add a microphone and an audio mod for my GoPro 8. I also wear a half shell helmet, I think I can purchase a external mic that wraps around it. Cuious, what editing program is everyone using. I use a basic Hp labtop. And when using the program called Quik, is the only one I can find for my Android phone and computer. Also, it aggrivates me alot when I cannot add custom music to my edit on the quik program but gives you an option. Any advice would be appreciated.
