For many motorcycle riders, the chopper epitomizes individuality, sleek styling and naturally a true muscle machine. Choppers traditionally are not made for hairpin turns or acceleration off the line.

Choppers are made for in town-riding and cruising the highways usually no more than a couple of hundred miles from their garage. Now, with choppers being relatively just a couple of percent of the entire motorcycle population, their appearance on the highway, local motorcycle event or just the local biker bar always creates a lot of attention and admiration.

Insta360 One X Chopper Motorcycles Ride

Insta360 One X Chopper Motorcycles Ride

Is the Insta360 One X the best 360° video camera for your motorcycle rides? Well, in my humble opinion at the current time it definitely is!


This camera is very small fits in your shirt pocket and yet takes stunning 5.7 K video! The best advantage of using a camera like this for your motorcycle rides is the fact that it is like having a camera person riding along with you. You really don’t have to worry about pointing the camera at any particular subject or direction because at 360° camera like this films everything. In the software that the company provides you can then edit the video to show the views that you feel are most interesting.

When watching this video, at times you’ll see that it seems like the camera is floating over my helmet. In reality, the camera is attached with a GoPro type attachment to the helmet. Read more »

San Diego Custom Motorcycle Builder

San Diego Custom Motorcycle Builder

This is an interview with Steve a retired guy who wanted to build custom motorcycles when he retired . . . and he has!

It’s one thing to have a passion to ride motorcycles. You take it up a notch when you handle your basic maintenance and repairs. It is really hitting it out of the ballpark when you can build your own custom motorcycle! I think this video interview shows Steve’s passion for his hobby of building bikes. Yes, when most people retire from their daily job, are thinking about bird watching or tending to a garden, Steve is living his retirement dream with iron, big motors, gas and a great satisfaction in riding his retirement creations!

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.
