DIY 360° video of your motorcycle rides

Best camera for getting 360° video of your motorcycle rides

360° video of your motorcycle rides – – This is a short demonstration video of using my Insta360 One x video camera on my 2017 Big Dog k9 clone. Because the camera films everything in 360°, you really don’t have to worry about aiming it at any specific point or in any direction.

When using the manufacturers app for editing the video you can decide what angles and what scenes or special effects are applied to the video. Once the video is edited, you can export it as a regular ‘flat’ video. With a normal video camera you could never get all these different directional shots. Actually, in order to do that, you would have to, let’s say shoot facing forward, then stop and remount the camera so it’s facing backward, then stop again, and change the camera to point out to the right side, etc.. With this camera, because everything is captured, you can decide what shots you want to include in the final video and also make some incredible special effects. Read more »

Big Dog k9 Motorcycle

This is a 2017 Big Dog k9 motorcycle.

Many motorcycle enthusiast consider the Big Dog K9 motorcycle to be the best factory built chopper ever made. The K-9 was the top-of-the-line, the flagship motorcycle for Big Dog.

In my personal opinion I believe the Big Dog K-9 and the American Ironhorse Texas Chopper are both tied for the distinction of best factory built chopper motorcycle. Big Dog Motorcycles shutdown making motorcycles in 2011 and a couple years later went bankrupt. Just a few years ago, the company came back, though on a much scaled-down operation. Up until 2011, the K-9 motorcycle came with the S&S 117 ci engine. Since the company has been back in operation the K9 motorcycle now comes with the S&S 124 ci engine.

The S&S 124 cubic inch V124 engine  has 10.8:1 compression • 4-1/8″ bore X 4-5/8″ stroke, electric compression release, S&S Super G carburetor and two year warranty

Chopper Motorcycles

chopper motorcycles

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.
