VLOG-21-Take a look inside Law Abiding Biker Podcast & Media. Another long work day from morning until late at night. We are working in the studio doing some Apple computer stuff. We were getting Lurch set up, as he is very mobile lately and needs to be connected.

See my mad chef skills as I make sandwich wraps for Lurch and my girls. Yah, they were pretty good.

We have a Patron supporter buy us a pizza before going live with the podcast. We make a run for the pizza and beer before we go on the air.

Best GoPro Motorcycle Bar Mount-Biker Gripper™ Handlebar Mount & GoPro Head

December 8, 2015 By Ryan Urlacher 6 Comments

We film professional tutorial & review videos for bikers around the world here at Law Abiding Biker™ Podcast & Media. For many projects we rely on GoPro action cameras mounted to our motorcycles. I know bikers/motorcyclists out there also like to mount GoPro cameras to their motorcycles to share trips with friends and family. For years I and other bikers have struggled with cheap junky GoPro motorcycle mounts all over the internet, Amazon, and eBay.

Yes, even the GoPro brand handlebar mount I am not a fan of. It is made of cheaper type plastic and has problems mounting to larger diameter bars. In time we have had several of these plastic GoPro brand mounts break at weak points and that is frustrating. Additionally, the GoPro brand bar mount system is clunky and it can often become a task getting it set up with the thumb screws.

Further, there is a rubber sleeve inside the bar mount in an attempt to keep it positioned on a bar. When you turn the mount to fix your GoPro to the position you want, it binds up and folds over. Because the plastic is weak it flexes, which can cause unwanted vibrations or camera movements. These are just a few of the struggles we have all had with the GoPro brand bar mount system.

So, out of frustration the journey began for me……….I knew that I needed to come up with or find the best solution for bikers to mount their beloved GoPro cameras to their motorcycles. Clearly all motorcycles have handlebars and many have more bars than that, such as engine guards, saddlebag guards, and luggage racks just to name a few. Many of these bars are different sizes and that certainly needed to be taken into account. Bikers can also be rough on things, so it has to be sturdy. It needed to be the strongest GoPro motorcycle mount in the world. Many were rigorously tested over much time and many failed.

Note: With a Harley-Davidson brand Boom Audio amp & speakers install you will need a Harley dealership to “flash” or “re-program” your Boom!™ Box Infotainment System to send the appropriate signals to the amp and speakers after install. DO THIS PRIOR to turning on the system after install of amp & speakers or you can damage it. The progrramming software is proprietary of course.

Harley Davidson and Harman Kardon just released Boom!™ Box software update version 1.19.1.1 in November, 2015. We have received many inquires from bikers asking if they should update to this version. It is always a good idea to wait and see if an update fixes more than it breaks and let me have some time to test things.

Note: This particular update if only for the Boom Box 6.5T Premium system and the CVO 6.5GT system. It is not for the standard 4.3 system.

I give the go ahead to update to this new Boom Box software update version, 1.19.1.1. I heavily tested the last big updates, version 1.19.0 & 1.19.1, back in July 2015. In this newest version, 1.19.1.1, only one new item/bug was actually fixed. That new item is labeled “incorrect next turn bar directions.” That refers to when you are in GPS mode on the Boom Box and it advises you of the next turn at the bottom of the screen. Many bikers were experiencing problems with this function.

Resources & videos:

Remember; The Harley Boom!™ Box still has many annoying bugs and problems, so don't expect this software update to suddenly fix everything.

If you don't know how to properly update your system software and maps then check out my Official Boom!™ Box Software Update Video.

This update claims to fix the following: (1.19.1.1)

Come behind the scenes with us a bit here at Law Abiding Biker Media. Join us in the garage/film studio as we crank out another video for all you Bikaholics.

We had a 2015 Harley Road Glide on the motorcycle lift for you all. We were filming a complete install of a Harley Davidson Boom Audio Stage 1 & 2 front speaker and amp kit.

We show you a bit about all the work that goes on behind our videos along with the cameras and lighting. We started years ago with nothing more than a cheap handheld camcorder and smart phones. Wow, have we progressed from those days.

With a ton of hard work and support from the community we have much more professional equipment now to film videos. And our filming and post productions skills have developed.

The Harley Davidson Boom Audio Stage 1 & 2 Amplifier & Speaker Kit Install Video will be out in the near future and you can check below for availability.

Biker Gripper Motorcycle Cell Phone Mount-How To Test It? Biker Moto VLOG-18

November 23, 2015 By Ryan Urlacher Leave a Comment

VLOG-Just wanted to do a quick Biker Moto VLOG & was out riding. Most of you know by now how awesome the Biker Gripper cell phone motorcycle mount is. We sell the Biker Gripper exclusively in the Law Abiding Biker Store and have a ton of 5 star reviews! It really is the sexiest, sleekest, and strongest cell phone motorcycle mounting solution on the market. And the universal handlebar mount version makes it cross over to anything with a 7/8″ to 1 1/4″ round bar. That includes street and dirt motorcycles, bicycles of all kinds, snowmobiles, and four wheelers just to name a few!

We recently received an email from a gentleman who was not completely familiar with Law Abiding Biker Podcast & Media to know that we would not sell Biker Grippers in our store if we did not completely trust them. He was concerned about its overall grip strength. Well, I can tell you that it has 18 lbs grip strength and has never failed us. The Biker Gripper even held in cell phones during motorcycle crashes that Law Abiding Biker personnel were involved in.

Our Custom Biker Gripper Cell Phone & GPS Mounts

Need a motorcycle cell phone or GPS mounting solution Bikaholics?
- That's right, Law Abiding Biker Media put our logo on these mounts & we personally use them on our motorcycles!
  - The sexiest, lightest, and strongest mounts available period.
  - Good prices and fast shipping from our store?
  - Check out our COMPLETE REVIEW

This gentleman did some sort of undisclosed test where claims he smacked the Biker Gripper over his thigh with a phone in it and he claims it came out. We are unsure how many times he did this, how hard, and with what device he mounted in the Biker Gripper. We asked him to send a video of his “test”, so we could see the circumstances. But, at the end of the day it doesn't matter as we freely admit that if you put enough unrealistic type forces a phone will come out. I think that the two crashes we have been and the massive amount of miles riding and testing prove that the Biker Gripper can hold on tight.

After explaining this information to the gentleman he decided to keep it and take in on his schduled motorcycle trip. Of course he must of loved the Biker Gripper, becasuse we never heard back. 🙂

Watch the video and ride along with me as I explain more of the story.
