    I like to use a handle bar mount attached to a bar end weight on one of my clipons. Clutch side allows you to turn the camera on without slowing down. I mount it upside down. It takes a couple of elbows to get clearance. It's a really cool angle, but the camera sees more vibration than when it's mounted to the tank.

    I'd add some safety wire or something to hold the GoPro on in case a bolt on the pivot comes loose even for normal riding. I lost one of my GoPros on a long ride. Since it was mounted on the back, I have no idea when it disappeared. Really sucks when it happens! Secure it well! Motorcycles rattle things loose!

    Thank you for the information. I was mainly concerned about hooking one up for those close calls. And possibly insurance claims God willing I never need to make 1. But you know they always say its the motorcycles fault He was going like a 100 miles an hour. So I was thinking GoPro my and just store that thousands of hours on a cloud in case I ever need it. Or if I pull something really cool witch has happened a few times and no one believes the story. :-)

    • @rocinantessgs7017
      @rocinantessgs7017 4 роки тому +1

      Have you looked into the 'dash cams' for motorcycles? There are a couple of versions available, most with front- and rear-facing cameras that capture video simultaneously, start when the bike starts and loops the footage so you don't have thousands of hours of unwanted/unnecessary footage. Not the same as an action camera, but might be more suited for your purpose. RSMF!

    Your methods may work for you but there's no way I'm going to trust an action camera attached to a motorcycle with a sticky mount or, especially, a suction cup mount. In fact, I don't even trust sticky mounts on my helmet so, in addition to using the 3M sticky mount, I rivet the mount base to the helmet. I've seen too many sticky mounts fail.

    Why would you assume that everyone has a piece of equipment that costs loads of money? Is gopro giving away cameras? Very bad way to start a video...
