@@TheFranticNomad thank you so much! Yes, my only regret was not being on a bigger bike for the mountains, but I managed! You should totally do it!

@@wendygustavel6918 thank you!

@@gmoynihan3029 thank you! So nice meeting and riding with you!

I did!! Thank you!!

Thank you! It is the Racing Sixties edition, so spot on!

Hello! Sorry for the delay, as I did not see your comments! I have a Garmin Zumo XT2 gps, which has options for different avoidances, including highways! I’ll be doing a video soon, where I talk about the gps and some of the mods I have done to make it work for me! Thanks for watching and the kind words!

Thank you!!

Thank you! I got the helmet from Cycle Gear, and had someone add the stripes! Any local automotive vinyl shop would likely do it for you!

Thank you!

Thank you! I think when all is said and done it’ll be about a week, and about 800 miles or so!

It ended up being about $100 total, which I felt was worth it! I’ve ordered a few things from them, and delivery is usually speedy!

Me too!

Thank you! Yeah I had enough of GoPro. It’s been so much better. Still figuring out the remote, but so far so good!

@@WanderOnTwoWheels glad to hear it. I’ll be doing the same with a second Osmo camera as well when I can and I’ll just try to sell the GoPro.

Thanks Bug! The hilarious thing is that I could not find the dang thing yesterday before my ride, so now I have to go through the bike and my 2 backpacks to try and find it! 😂🤣

I bought a TPSM kit for my tires, which has been great at helping me keep an eye on tire pressure, so you may have a key point! I am checking them pretty consistently. So far the Pirelli Angels they put on feel fine. I’m just hoping they have a similar durability to the prior City Grips! Haha, yeah lots of straight flat roads out there, but also better riding weather longer! Cheers!

I carry around a Fanttik portable air inflator. VERY easy way to check your pressure. Costco currently selling S100.

@@vespaenthusiaststimlisah. I do also have one of those portable rechargeable air fillers, and it so comes in handy!

Hi there! Great questions! I had Michelin City Grips on the bike when I bought it in May of 2022. They still looked and felt pretty good when I had them replaced in February with almost 11,000 miles on them! Unfortunately they did not have the City Grips, so I now have the Pirelli Angels on there. I’ll see how long they last. As for maintenance, it is hard to find places local to Rhode Island, so I have been trying to learn what I can. I can do oil and filter changes myself now, but actually found a place in New Hampshire that came to pick up the bike in February for its 10,000 mile service, which was pretty pricy. My goal for this year is to learn more maintenance, because it really is the only annoying thing about owning a Vespa. I hope that was helpful! Happy shopping, and have fun with whatever you decide to get!!

Thanks, and yes that was very helpful. I just don't see the need to use a car (unless the weather is bad) with only one person in it - me. I'm also considering the Honda Supercub because of the retro look. And the price, of course!

@@vanmandad yeah I only use my car when the weather is bad, or I have to do some shopping that can’t fit on my Vespa! The Super Cub looks pretty cool, too! And there seem to be more Honda dealers around.

@@WanderOnTwoWheels And the engine is more easily accessible for simple maintenance. I love Jay Leno's video on the Supercub 😆😂🤣

@@vanmandad haha, true that! I haven’t seen that video. I’ll have to find it. Thanks!

Hello! Thanks for stopping by!

I’m really liking it way more than the GoPro!

Yes! I think I either got them from Scooterwest or SIP. Let me see if I can find the email. I think they may have had some other ones.

The top case ones came from SIP and I did get a set of replacement body decals from Scooterwest, in case I ever damaged the body.

Thanks! I just filmed my ride with the Mic 2, and the next video will feature that combo!

Hello! I believe I was at 50fps and -10 for the gain~

@@WanderOnTwoWheels thx

@@J3_ZON you're welcome!

Thank you! I figured it was the best way to test out the gear AND get over my apprehension about speaking. And it helped a lot! Thank you! I’ll be doing the DGR in Boston again in May! Thanks so much for watching!

Thanks!! Yes! It came at the right time! I have been waffling about changing cameras, so it kinda forced me to do it. So glad I did. I really like the DJI so much better, along with the ease of use of the mics.

Hi there! I know someone who is a metal fabricator, so I went to meet with him and his dad a couple weeks ago with an idea of what I wanted, and this is what they came up with! I’ll be doing a video just on that piece and the gps soon, so you’ll have a better idea of what it looks like and how it attaches!

Haha! Not even! Glad I got this rambling out of the way. By the end I felt good, and ready to start making shorter, more targeted videos! Thank you for the chance to win the mic! It’s definitely a game changer!

Thanks so much! Sorry I missed your comment until now!

Yes!

That’s what I’m trying to figure out! If you read my description, I say the quality is terrible, and I ask for suggestions. If you have any, please share!

@@WanderOnTwoWheels hear you. It can be tricky i am Insta360 user was curious about the comparison with Go pro max

@@harshs6597 the other videos I’ve seen with this camera look amazing, so I know I must be doing something wrong! Ha!

@@WanderOnTwoWheels it looks like you uploaded the LRV (low res video) file , after it was upscaled to 4k.... instead of the regular full size file

@@kylepeterson thanks for the reply! You are likely correct! I just tried a new video, using only the Hero lens, and I think I uploaded a higher resolution file, because it looks better. Still not where I'd like to be, but I am learning!
