great! thanks for stopping by!

Awesome!! Don't forget to strap the front fork down after you get it up on the chock!

Good hearing from you! @indieridge does make a good looking boot, but almost more importantly, they are engineered to protect you!

Will do! I plan on doing a full initial review of these @indieridge ventilated boots, to see if they actually do keep my feet cooler on these hot summer days....stay tuned!

They are!

@@WhatsUpBob yeah✌️

I like the styling and comfort so far...the real test will be to see if my feet actually feel cooler on these hot summer days....stay tuned for an upcoming review!

I don't have a X4 to test, but InstaMic CEO @michelebaggio of @instamic has told me the InstaMic is designed to work with the X3 and X4. If you have any questions or concerns about it I urge you to reach out and message Michele on his Facebook or InstaMic page.

The Insta360 techs had me try 2.0.11.1, but I still wasn't able to connect either my AirPods, nor my InstaMic. All is good though running 1.3.8.1 for now though, until Insta360 gets their act together (hopefully)

I just put a video out a couple of weeks ago, to show how to downgrade Insta360 firmware, if you're interested in doing so.

@@WhatsUpBob thanks!! I’ll check it out

@@WhatsUpBob watched your other video. Went to their site and the RS isn’t able to go to that version. I spoke to customer support who reached out to their engineers and the RS does not have a firmware version comparable with Instamic pro, Sena, or anything other than AirPods sadly. Thinking I may end up selling my whole kit and getting an X4 :( Wired purple panda mix works fantastic but having the wire swinging around and making the camera not waterproof is a pain

Fingers crossed, but 2 years using these, and still working great! Thanks for watching!

I'm not sure...my bikes had 19". I think you would just need to do trial and error to see what works for you (I would suggest NOT getting off the bike after each try until you're sure the chock is in the right setting, lest it become unstable and the bike tip over!)

@@WhatsUpBob Thank you. Ride safe!

Great! Hope it works out for you! (If you do order one, make sure it's from a place you can return it if you don't like it) Regarding the handlebars, those are similar to the stock 'beach bars' that came on the FatBoy (mine was a 2002), except mine were plus sized (can't remember the diameter)... If you watch "T2", those are similar shaped bars Arnold has on his FatBoy.. I really miss having that bike and those bars...for me, I felt I had more control, more maneuverability with those (they were almost like bicycle shaped bars)

While it doesn't show on the video, I basically went into another room and closed the door, and it still sounded like I was right next to the Insta360 One R. I'm curious what version of software your Insta360 One RS is running...I recently put out an updated video (check it out on my channel) and I'm not able to connect to my One Rs latest firmware (2.0.8.1)...might be different though on a RS?

The CEO over there in Europe still hasn't responded to my question as to why no sound. He advised to change the dbl to 10, still no go. I think it's like you said, the firmware. I just gotta learn how to reload that to an rallies version and try the test again.

Here's the video I was referencing (sometimes YT block links in the comments). ua-cam.com/video/M480Qm0vQ98/v-deo.html

@@truthofgod6213 I have a One R (not RS), so I don't know what the older firmware versions are for your RS, but I did this video on how to go back to an older firmware version on a One R....after loading 1.3.8.1 version on my One R, I was able to connect my AirPods and InstaMic to my One R. ua-cam.com/video/GuDkJ73VS1M/v-deo.htmlsi=V5Tmye16h8rRu7qT It's not a fault of the InstaMic...it's the Insta360 firmware...I had Insta360 support confirm that they now realize they have an issue, and are supposdely working on a solution. I think you should reach out to them with your issue, as I did.

@@WhatsUpBob No faults being issued by me, would be nice if it all worked as advertised out of the box though. Seems crazy any other way. If I owned a company, I would want my products to sync with everything out there, so the customer base would be very happy. It's just my mindset on if the customers aren't happy, then sales are going to bomb. Yes, I saw you vid, and understand you have the "r". I did a search like you said, even though I searched for the "RS", the "r" firmware still showed up. So I guess there is only one firmware for the "RS"? It's 2.0.11.4, so I'm going to try the 1.3.8.1 and see what happens.

To answer my own question, yes it does work with the X2 according to their website. I followed your link and finally purchased it! I got the Mic, wind socket and hand held adapter. I can't wait for it to arrive 😀Cheers!

Great to hear from you Ali ! Yep! I’m still alive and kicking, and plan on doing some occasional videos…I frankly got burned out doing videos…it became a chore and not fun anymore, plus it seemed like I just didn’t have the time. I found I still like doing these type of self help videos, and reviews, so hope to continue to do some more of those. Hope all is going well for you…thought of you the other as our next door neighbors are currently on a trip to Montreal and then on to Nova Scotia!

That is great!! The CEO Michele is a great guy, and is always more than happy to provide any assistance if needed. I’ll send him a message and let him know you ordered one!

@WhatsUpBob oh very nice! I hope they enjoy their visit.

Thanks!!,

@@WhatsUpBob You are welcome sir

always fun pulling my hair out, trying to figure out a company's inability to provide clear instructions haha

Thanks! I did the video more for myself for future reference, but hope it helps some other folks as well !

First off, thanks for the reply and questions! (I'll be 69 next month, so I've found I'm never too hold to teach this old dog a new trick, or start up a new hobby!) haha So, firmware on the Insta360s...I'll betcha that's your issue with the X3 and AcePro..while their version numbers will be different than mine on the One R, I would suggest loading an earlier version (1 or previous) firmwares for the X3 and AcePro. (i'll have a video out shortly on how to do it for the One R, which may or may not be similar to the X3 and AcePro) While we're talking about your connection issues, please Message the InstaMic CEO Michele Baggio on the InstaMic Facebook page...he will be more than happy to listen to your issue and help with a solution. Michele is a great guy that I've worked with for at least 3-4 years. Now, on to my HJC modular helmet... I find the sound to be clearer with the windsock on..being modular, this helmet does not have a chin seal, so quite a bit of wind comes up from underneath, hence the preference for the windsock. To minimize the 'tickling the lips' issue, I use the 3M tape mount about 2 to 3 inches to the right of center, just below the visor...it tickles my cheek a bit, but I really don't notice it much there I have to admit. Hope some of this helps. BTW, if you have any questions about Vlogging or editing in post, reach out to me...I'd be more than happy to help if I can! Bob

I'll send a message to the InstaMic CEO and see what he thinks....

@@WhatsUpBob Oh okay sir...Eagerly waiting for the replay

​@@AjaySingh-228so bad news for now... Per Instamic CEO, "It doesn't as far as I know.. DJI is building its own ecosystem of video and audio. They are pushing hard in selling their Mic 2. I guess they won't release any Bluetooth Audio Standard profile to support other microphones."

@@WhatsUpBob oh okay thank you for your information bro.. Have a nice day 🙂✌️

Awesome!! I will say in retirement, I'm busy enough I sometimes have trouble finding time to get out new content... But when I do, I try to make it my best effort...

Thanks very much! The eagle has some definite significance to my sister, and the 2 sons she has lost to cancer..

Good for you!! So the primary oil (at least on this Sportster) is separate from the main engine oil... Sometimes you'll hear of a 3 hole change on a Big Twin Harley... That refers to Engine, Primary and Transmission.

Cool! I hope my series helps some. The restoration of my late nephews bike was a learning experience for me.. I had never tackled more than an oil change on a bike before that. Lots of research and UA-cam videos before I put the 1st wrench on the bike... I wanted to minimize any damage I might do to it, by not making dumb guesses or assumptions. Keep me up to date on your project, and feel free to reach out if you have a question.. Bob

That's what she said lol 😉

You're welcome! Hope it helps! Be sure to strap down that front fork to the chock once you get the bike on it..

Thank you!! Looking fwd to the next 50!

Thanks guys! We have had a very blest journey so far, and are looking forward to the ride for the next 50!!

Thank you so much!! Looking forward to the next 50!!

@@WhatsUpBob ❤️

Thanks! It's been a good journey!

It was just plug and play on my bike. Note though that on older bikes, with the possibility of hyperflash, it may be necessary to install the ballast resistors.

Excellent tips Julie ! I especially like tip 1, using the knife tape...I'm getting ready to install vinyl stripes on my Corvette, and was planning on using the knifeless tape (it never occurred to me to try it on the windscreen). Thanks! Bob

It's like one of those taboo things Harley (or anyone actually) will never discuss. It's an issue that has been around forever...just look up a picture of the old Harley windscreens from the 40s and 50s, as they are huge, trying to prevent the head bobbing issue.

They say "a genius is one step away from insanity"....in my case, that would be a baby step HAHA. Be sure to strap down your bike as soon as you have it on the chock, to be extra safe. Thanks!

Sorry for the delayed response Julie...I just responded to your later comment. So I heated and stretched to the edge, then used my xacto blade to flush cut....I MUCH MUCH prefer your method of the knifeless tape! You're a genius!

The dry grass, I've never had an issue with....however I've had some slippery experiences when on a damp day rounding a corner.. Thanks for watching and the comment!

An update...the replacement visor HJC sent me got scratched up on the inside again, and I was super careful to only use water and a clean microfiber cloth. They definitely have an engineering problem with the anti-fog they're putting on the inside of the visor.
