OK, so i have a helmet mount lipstick cam, but the footage was a little boring 'cause you don't lean your head with the bike, plus the mike got only wind noise over 10mph, even with tape over it.
So i bought a nicer Sony MiniDv camcorder (got it used for $80, retail $499) and mounted it to the tank bag and went for a Sunday ride but it shook way to much, though the shaking makes it look like you are doing 100mph while my tach says otherwise.
Anywho what that looks like is posted here on U-tube: (nothing fancy just riding around, the wood scene's are in a park so i have to keep the rpm's way low to keep the ParkPolice off my back)
(took it down 'cause it sucked but put up a better one, see next post)
So you can see why i just bought this:
http://www.newenoughhp.com/accessor...ntis_motorcycle_gas_tank_mounting_system.html
"PowerStands Mantis Gas Tank Mounting System
The Mantis will work with video and still cameras, GPS, and radar detectors
Securely fastens via gas cap bolts, still allows you full access to your gas cap
Adjustable anti-vibration suction cup provides additional support and stability
Full range of adjustments: Height, Forward, Backward, Angle Tilting, etc…
Position your gadgets ABOVE or BELOW the windscreen
Includes camera mounting bolt, and hook and loop pads"
Soon as it gets here I'll get some new footage and we'll see the difference.
