Default Go Pro question

I reach up and turn it on — the beeps are very audible even with my bike running— but again I am tech challenged lol— if you’re good with your phone it might be better — definitely practice before you use it for something you really want to capture—

Most times I have mine mounted on the fairing in front of winshield on left hand side with a RicRac mount and can reach up and hit record. Only issue is the occasional bug on the lens.

Other times I use a Gopro remote worn on my right arm like a watch, the remote is great if you mount it to helmet or out of reach

I think I need to check for bugs every stop. I get bugged all the time.

I put a Freewell lens filter on my GP9.

I put a Roll Cage on my Hero8 basically it’s just a silicone sleeve that goes over body of cam to protect it from scratches or whatever but it has a lens cover that easily snaps off. It will protect the lens and because it snaps off easily you can pull it off at a stop dunk the lens cover in water to clean it and snap it back
