On November 13th my motorcycle insurance expires and the Big Bike goes into the carport for a long nap. Meanwhile, I have engine bars and a carry rack coming from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.renntec.co.uk\/acatalog\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">Renntec<\/a> Motorcycle Accessories and I am still trying to figure out the luggage system. My goal is to have a working system in place by spring so I can start to test it all out with local trips before leaving town.<\/p>\n<p>I am trying to wait until the last possible minute to buy a video camera to mount on the bike. Technology is advancing so that anything I buy now will be outdated by spring. I will have to take the plunge at some point, just so I can practice with the machine before actually mounting it on the Yamaha FJ1200. I am sure there will also be mounting and vibration problems, but I hope to get everything worked out before next summer.<\/p>\n<p>Cell phone companies are now interested in assisting me with streaming video off the bike, for a fee of course. The streaming would be limited to areas with cell phone coverage, so the mountains and more remote areas would be off the grid. I would still like to stream to a satellite, but the concept will take more development.<\/p>\n<p>With the dark days and fewer distractions, I am sure the book will advance exponentially and I will keep you all posted on the progress of the project.<\/p>\n<!-- google_ad_section_end --><h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/livemorelightly.com\/Tech\/wp-content\/gallery\/yamahafj\/DSC_0001_01.png\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Location, Vancouver, Canada\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"shutterset_c165f392437dd6cff0a9053847461ae6\" data-image-id=\"62\" data-src=\"https:\/\/livemorelightly.com\/Tech\/wp-content\/gallery\/yamahafj\/DSC_0001_01.png\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/livemorelightly.com\/Tech\/wp-content\/gallery\/yamahafj\/thumbs\/thumbs_DSC_0001_01.png\" data-title=\"DSC_0001_01\" data-description=\"Location, Vancouver, Canada\">\n\t\t\t<img title=\"DSC_0001_01\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"DSC_0001_01\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-image-id=\"62\"\n\t\t\t\tsrc=\"\"\/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/livemorelightly.com\/Tech\/wp-content\/gallery\/yamahafj\/DSC_0002_01.png\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\" \"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"shutterset_c165f392437dd6cff0a9053847461ae6\" data-image-id=\"63\" data-src=\"https:\/\/livemorelightly.com\/Tech\/wp-content\/gallery\/yamahafj\/DSC_0002_01.png\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/livemorelightly.com\/Tech\/wp-content\/gallery\/yamahafj\/thumbs\/thumbs_DSC_0002_01.png\" data-title=\"DSC_0002_01\" data-description=\" \">\n\t\t\t<img title=\"DSC_0002_01\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"DSC_0002_01\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-image-id=\"63\"\n\t\t\t\tsrc=\"\"\/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"translate_block\" style=\"display: none;\">\n<hr class=\"translate_hr\" \/>\n<a class=\"translate_translate\" id=\"translate_button_post-310\" lang=\"en\" xml:lang=\"en\" href=\"javascript:show_translate_popup('en', 'post', 310);\">[Translate]<\/a><img src=\"https:\/\/livemorelightly.com\/Tech\/wp-content\/plugins\/google-ajax-translation\/transparent.gif\" id=\"translate_loading_post-310\" class=\"translate_loading\" style=\"display: none;\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<!-- google_ad_section_start --><p>Vancouver has settled into the &#8220;rainy with cloudy periods&#8221; weather pattern that will sustain until the spring.
