++++++++++++++++++++++++++++This is a little video retrospective of some of the chopper motorcycles that I’ve owned over the years.
I grew up on the East Coast and that’s where my passion for high-powered chopper motorcycles began. Actually my first motorcycle was an old 1950 something Harley-Davison with a suicide shift.

It had the electrical EHC upgrade as well as chrome custom wheels and rotors. But, the real outstanding feature of this bike, was that it had under 400 original miles! Now, I know this is hard to believe, but I checked the mileage on service receipts, yes, the owner brought it in annually to have it serviced. Plus, I look first scraping on the frame under the engine. These bikes sit very low to the ground approximately I believe about 4 inches clearance, so the bottom of the frame always gets scraped up going in driveways putting the bike on a trailer etc.
From owning a number of big dogs and also American iron horse Texas chopper’s that also have very little ground clearance, I’ve gotten to know about how much scraping these choppers show with different mileage. Sure this is not an exact science, but just another indicator to use when trying to determine the real mileage. (more…)

Great 360° video camera. This camera has two lenses and shoots in full 360° mode. So, in post production you can decide what direction to view the video in order to track on certain action within the video.
In this video, I’m showing an example of just one of the effects that you can achieve with this camera. The manufacturer calls this bullet time. Basically you’re swinging the camera around your head while recording at 120 frames per second!
In post production, you can then slow the video down to create this slow-motion effect. There are number of speeds that you can slow the video down to. In this example I’ve slowed the video down to 1/8 of the original speed. (more…)
