well I'm new here and there aren't a lot of vids posted.
I stuck the Go pro on the tank last week when I got the DB2 out for the first ride this year- it's not a Ducati, but it wouldn't be what it is without the engine!
I'm planning to make a few nice films with a good friend of mine over the next couple of months- so this was a test to see what the camera could do.
I'm really impressed with the sound- this was using the open camera back- next time I'll try the closed 'waterproof' back which is recomended for over 100mph.
But obviously the camera is getting a completely different sound than me, being closer to the engine/airbox- sounds like a road drill at idle and an F1 car at speed.
Not too much of that- always take it easy after 6 months sitting in the barn.
I'll post again when the Ducatis get online!
