070426 Schuberth C2 Motorcycle Vlogging Helmet Modifications


This is my favorite helmet for motorcycle vlogs. I employ a Kodak v570 or v705 exclusively for motorcycle vlogging. I had this video up on youtube under my 88hawaii account. Since I get asked about my camera and helmet often, I decided to repost this video.

    Great job as always.

    I’d like to know more about the glasses in the helmet as well, did you modify that? It’s a pain in the rear to take glasses off, put helmet on, and then put glasses on… then of course once you’re wherever you’re going, the same process in reverse. lol

    awesome setup!

    that is an awesome idea with the tape / tab button! great setup man.

    When I saw your set up in person, I was amazed at how clever it was…I’m glad you reposted, it’s fun to see that “Rob school of design stuff ” =)

    sunnyjason – yeah, those are home-made glasses.

  7. Spencerian says:

    DashTube1 – yeah, you have to tip the camera so that it’s level and you don’t get too much ground or too much sky.

    havedogwillscooter – the glasses is home made. I made it out of a bicycle spoke and cannibalized prescription glasses.

    Thanks for posting the vid, Rob, I’m going to attempt o modify mine next week.

    I have been thinking about how my new helmet would fit the camera. Some people always assume I am staring at the ground. It’s the camera angle! I will probably be playing around with this the most. Gave me some Ideas.

    nice mod dude.

  13. Spencerian says:

    itsreload – yeah, when I was riding the Suzuki DRZ400, I was upright, so it looked like my head was pointing down. I guess it depends on the bike position you have. My helmet is mostly for sportbikes with the leaning forward position.

  14. Spencerian says:

    Checkout the youtube groups called v570. You can access the group from my page, and in the top middle, you can see a link that says GROUPS. There are others that have posted their helmet modification videos up.

  15. Spencerian says:

    6evuk9 – mounting the camera on the bike usually gets a lot of shakiness, especially on bumpy roads. The neck dampens a lot of loading.

  16. CrustyBiker says:

    I did that mod with my old helmet, but i had it so you push the camera all the way down, I drilled a big hole in the chinbar and covered with see through perspex…. but eventually I thought it has weakened the strength and binned the helmet.

    I need to pay more attention. While watching the video I kept telling myself I know I’ve seen this one before even though its new. Then I looked at the file date. It’s been a long day.

    Once again, you have proven why your videos are so popular! Seriously, we need you in NASA or working on alternative energy sources! Such innovation!!

  19. kalashinakov says:

    that shit is dangerous mate!! cutting the helmet is not a good idea

  20. AtlasRider says:

    The tape thing is very clever!

  21. Spencerian says:

    AtlasRider – you should try it out. It helps start the videos.

    schuberths are really nice lids, although not that popular in the UK, i use a S1Pro, am on my second now, only gripe i have is that commset ear speakers don’t attach easily to the lining like with other lids, soooo quiet though, i use a bullet cam myself but great vid and arrangement, i’ve seen some vids like this where the vlogger can barely see over the camera, your setup lokks really good :)

    genius… absolute genius..

  24. MrBKBiker says:

    What is the setup you have for glasses? I wear glasses and have to take off to get full face helmet on and real pain to put glasses back on in the helmet.

    Store water high above the ground in a container. Put it above a series of generators and as the water falls it will generate power. Pool the fallen water, make a series of small tubes rising back to the container and the water will rise back into the container through capillary action and then fall all over again. Problem solved.
