alright guys what is up is your least favorite motovlogger here brian636 and for the first time
ever i'm gonna be talking about just that motovlogging so i know this is not really
a crazy video or anything like that but i feel like i've got enough questions over the years
on what i really do to record my voice while i'm riding at whatever speeds um a couple people
like the way it sounds it sounds clearer than what they're trying to do so i figured what a
better time to do it than when i'm transferring pretty much all the things i utilize to do that
from one helmet to a new one as you know a couple of weeks ago almost a month now i went down so i
always like to change out a helmet after a crash as you should because the frame is damaged inside
and i've been running with these bell race stars for a long long time now and i absolutely love
them having a lightweight helmet when you throw this much gear on it already helps in the long run
your neck will thank you believe me so i'm basically going to be running us through how
to install this stuff what it is links to a lot of it and uh we're going to outfit this new helmet to
go make a motovlog hopefully here tomorrow and if i could ask please uh go ahead and hit that
like button for me down there and if you're new here please do subscribe really do appreciate
all you guys let's get into setting up this helmet okay i got the camera set up on the tripod there
hopefully the echo isn't too bad i know i'm in my kitchen it's literally like 10 degrees out so
i wanted to bring this to you guys because i'm hopefully going to go and make a motovlog
soon so this is the old helmet i'm going to be leaving a couple of these old parts on it that i'm
not going to use and uh basically break down what we're going to need to set up a modal vlog setup
most riders will mount a gopro on their helmet and it'll record their riding and everything
like that but you're not going to really hear what they're saying inside their helmet unless you have
a microphone within it so for a gopro hero i think five six seven eight and uh i believe even nine
i'm not a thousand percent sure nine might have a different one like an internal um microphone
adapter but for the five six seven and eight um this is the microphone adapter that you need it's
a little bit bulky it's a little bit cumbersome but it goes into the charging port there on your
gopro hero and you basically mount it on the side of your helmet like that and that's basically what
you need just to hook up a microphone to your gopro so in addition to this microphone adapter
you're of course going to need a microphone this is a 3.5 millimeter giant squid microphone it's
way longer than what you ever would need for in a helmet it's made for a lapel mic so you
know like something that you put on your t-shirt like that and uh you can hear yourself talk or you
record a phone conversation or whatever um this is it i'll go ahead and link that down in the
description for you 3.5 millimeter giant squid microphone i guess i'll start off with installing
that first so first things first we're going to go ahead and remove the cheek pads on the
new bell race star helmet put those to the side we're not going to need those for a little while
into the inside of the helmet and you see these right here they're like styrofoam
little plugs go ahead and take those out these are for your music or for your
microphone or whatever you're installing just gives you that extra little room
i'm gonna go ahead and start installing the microphone for the gopro in the helmet we'll
just slide that up front there um we're always gonna run the microphone for the gopro at least
on the right side where our cable exits on the left side so your clutch side
now that we got the little auxiliary cord coming out of the left side of your helmet we'll go ahead
and grab our microphone adapter plug that in give us a little bit of a rough idea of where
it's going to actually mount up here or you could use your old helmet if you're doing a swap
and i like to use this 3m double-sided velcro tape um it's reusable it can go on and off there
like a million times and just go ahead and cut a pretty small piece i don't know about this big
bing bada boom come on here and just stick it on make sure you're pressing on there real good
click that into place and boom our microphone and microphone adapter are on now next up is of
course our gopro because you need that to be able to record and how i like to hold on my gopro is
uh these these are called chin mounts you can get them at chinmouths.com go ahead and use my
code brian636 i think it gives you like 20 off or something like that too and they work really well
i've been using them for a long time now and uh yeah they come with double sided stick tape and
you just go ahead and press it onto the chin each of these is formulated for a specific helmet so
this angle and stuff like that is designed for this bell race star to be right here which is
really cool so once we got that removed you're going to go in here and make sure it's
it's either clean or if it's a new one you don't gotta worry as much about it but
go ahead center it up right to where you want it i like to run it right around there
and then press really hard for like i don't know a minute or two make sure it's got a good
seal to that helmet starting to look more and more like a motovlogging helmet now
we'll come in here of course throw the gopro on the case i like to just run the stock case i don't
like anything crazy just a stock case with this little side piece off of course for the microphone
and uh a little j hooker in 90. just like that gopro is on plug in our gopro make sure you got
that fitment good now if you've ever seen me at a ride or anything like that i always like to have
a misguided sticker on the back we sell these over on our website and packs i think they're
like five bucks um if you guys are interested i'll leave that down in the description just like this
now we look like we know what we're doing now the last little thing i need is uh is my lexan i
love riding with this it's great it lets me accept phone calls listen to music um it has a microphone
of itself as well as earbuds so we're going to go ahead and install that and uh yeah that should sum
it up so let's go ahead and throw this thing on there so just like everything else of course i
like to have it on the left side basically just because it's not the throttle side and the gopro
you kind of have to run it on the left side and you'll just take it pull out the outside liner
slide this in now we're going to tighten this up with a little allen wrench here not really hard
the last thing we're installing is the headset um earpiece on either side with the mic super easy
throw this in all right guys so we have the lexan on we have the microphone adapter and our gopro on
our brand new race star now we can go ahead take off the protective lens and boom we got a brand
new motovlog setup here um if you guys enjoyed the video any useful information anything like
