Title: Dynolicious
Post by: rgury on August 07, 2008, 09:35:44 PM
I know this might be intended for a car, but still pretty cool.  13 bucks for anyone with an iPhone....  I wanna see if anyone could try this on a bike.  Check it out...

I can't take anyone with facial hair like that seriously. He should get a razorlicious!

The Dynolicious is very buggy right now. I hope they release a update soon.

Its not always that consistent.

Also since the Iphone screen is not pressure sensitive its impossible to use with gloves on unless you cut a finger hole out in which case I rather not ride like that. I think its best for a car and not well suited for a motorcycle.

I saw a similar app and was intrigued but it really wouldn't work well unless you kept it perfectly still during the run, which, short of mounting my iPhone to the bike, is difficult to do.

I've been toying with the idea of developing something similar as a permanent instrument on the bike (with touchscreen and controls for accessories like heated grips, music audio, etc) but after getting the iPhone, I've lost my motivation.

i tried chucking it in my jacket pocket and doing some runs, but that doesnt work... 0-60 time of 7 seconds LOL

it really needs a dedicated mount (needs to be vertical or horizontal to work optimally according to instructions) plus the whole need a hole in your glove to use the damn thing

Yea, not really the most appropriate for a motorcycle, but damn interesting none the less.  Might want to get that app for the S2000.  ;)

Back from the dead!

I just got an iphone a while back and installed this app. Has anyone tried it since this post?

Also how about this for a dedicated mount?
