Rear view camera installed

[Bigger-Busa]

I installed a rear view color camera and screen. This was a simple 2 hour custom installation. I used a dremal tool to modify the tail section of the 2006 busa and used lots of clear silicone. The screen has tons of adjustments for contrast and brightness for sunny days or dark nights.
The manufacturer says to hook camera power wires to reverse lights but I hooked them to the original marker plate light wires. Now as soon as you turn key on the camera and screen come to life.

Where the original reflector was located I placed the camera. BJ's ware house has the entire review camera set up for $79. it is a VR3 Video Reality Video Labs VRBCS300WCOS

Camera will get water and road debris with this fat tire set up but I normally drive on dry days.

The camera is not connected to the screen, it is a wireless set up.

This is the tail before the install

First off, Why is there a goat in the pic with your bike??? Thats a little odd.

Second, the cam with that kit is nice but the wireless will start to make you mad in about a week. At speed when you hit a bump, the pic with fade in and out.


But I like the install.

I was going to ask the same thing about the goat.

I had the same rear view camera on my Katana, it would flicker at idle but once I started rolling it showed a pretty decent view. It worked very well (imo) on the highway, gives us your take on it after a few rides. I thought it was a good investment.

What I think is odd is the tire seems to be a little off center to the right

I like the camera setup though

I'm glad someone said something about the goat. I saw it and thought WTF! I couldn't figure was the goat trying to squeeze by or was it a stuff animal!...Woo!

I ride a reaview cam and 2 monitors on my ram. Its always dirty even in dry conditions. Do i see a freakin goat jumping over the bike???

 

[Big Red]

That sure is a heck of a lot cheaper than the ANT display/camera. Is the goat your little buddy?

 

[BigRod1300]

Thats a hell of a guard dog you got there! Glad to see you still have the Phat bike and the goat.

 

[bowwow]

I have the same one from Wal-Mart. For the price, you can't beat it. My camera is right under the reflector, and the monitor is on a double stem stand that I got from Jester.

Not to change the subject, but would this mod make it legal to ride with no mirrors?

Also, how well does the camera show at night?

I planned on buying one of these for my Avalanche sometime in the future. Now I might have to buy 2.

Good job Bigger-Busa!

(Notice goats body is eerily similar to the hayabusa body.. strange!)

I haven't ridden it yet with the camera installed as im here in CT and its freezing out. I figure it will be ok at night you realy only need to see the head lights anyway, they should be fine.

Not sure if legally you can remove mirrors but i have the smallest tiny mirrors now and they are not good for much.
