Mounting a GoPro on the CB1100. Some ideas.

[url=http://nypost.com/2014/10/13/gopro-sinks-on-report-helmet-cam-worsened-skiers-injury/]michael schumacher (F1 driver) got serious brain injuries in a skiing accident and a gopro was strongly implicated (2014)
the helmet broke where the camera was mounted
in the time since it's been determined anything mounted on a helmet of any type can cause a torque to the helmet or additional damage
most track day orgs now ban any helmet-mounted cam

Didn't know that. I know a lot of guys who still do this on the street -- definetely something to share with them.

Didn't know that. I know a lot of guys who still do this on the street -- definetely something to share with them. i heard about the gopro safety think at my last track day but did not know about michael s until i read this thread and looked it up

but yes intuitively one would think anything mounted to the helmet is not such a good plan

pretty sure a snell rated lid would not crack or puncture from a gopro but the notion of the camera preventing the helmet sliding or creating snapping or torquing of the neck does not appeal to me

its also a distraction but then again have you heard of the two guys playing pokemon go who fell off a cliff looking for a pokemon...

yes it happened and where else but california

big signs and fence and they still fell nearly a hundred feet

wonder if they found their pokemon btw they are going to be fine

some folks do not need to get out of the house they should stay home to play their video games

some folks do not need to get out of the house they should stay home to play their video games One of the Pokémon locations (hiding place or whatever you call them) somehow ended up being located in our Police Headquarters downtown -- they had to issue a news briefing to tell people to stop trying to come in to a functioning police department and try to wander around looking for Pokémon. I swear this game makes people turn their brains off.

I swear this game makes people turn their brains off. its really a bad deal

they have put the locations in areas that create hazards and inconvenience people

it will only be a matter of time until legal challenges arise on the question of using a true location which is private property as a feature of a game that is a commercial enterprise

this truly stretches and will ultimately define the idea of personal property rights

if a home or business is used to generate use of the game that can in some way be construed as creating a right to royalties

however i and a millenial i asked about this both believe it will ultimately be too much trouble for the couch potatoes to get up and put gas in the car and tackle traffic when they can just as easily stay home and play video games

burnout will occur within a few weeks maybe sooner if folks keep turning up dead as with one location or continue falling off cliffs
