Thermal image

Thought I’d throw up some cool pics of the bike running with a thermal camera on it.
I went out for about a 6 mile putt to warm it up. The bike was around 205 F on both sides. You can pick up one of these cameras fairly cheap like $280 i think (work paid for it)

Thats awesome. I almost sprung for one of those last year. Do you have the ability to add some sort of legend to the images or is it just qualitative?

If you mean like a temperature scale,I don’t think it does, although Ive used some other Flir cams that do.

Yeah sorry, that’s what I meant - a scale to interpret temps. In any case, that’s really cool to see the thermal gradients and where the hot spots are. Thanks for posting

I was warned at work....."Johnny, DO NOT TAKE PICTURES OR LOOK AT WOMEN with this thermal camera." Haha. True story.
