Can anyone tell me what mounts you are using to mount one on your bike and where. I have access to one when I want to use it and need to buy a mount/mounts. FZ1n owner.


Thanks

Got a aluminium handlebar mount on mines looking through the screen. Ialso have the chest strap and im tempted to try that and see how that goes.. should be less vibration mounted on yourself rather than the bike.
Brooker81. Not been brave enough to try the stick on mounts yet.. whats the verdict? What speeds etc

proper sticky just clean helmet/surface properly before mounting ive been over a tonne with mine on no probs at all just check after every ride still stuck well but i'm happy that its not going anywhere. videos are clear and little shake but lots of wind noise but use gopro studio to remove that.

Got myself the RAM handlebar mount, tried it out yesterday on the easter egg run and it was very good. Cheers.

Helmet mount works well but is a bit noisy - especially at motorway speeds. RAM mount on bars also works well but you're always looking through the screen.


For something completely different try strapping to your pillion footpeg facing rearwards  :b

I've got a sticky mount on the top on my helmet and use one of the handlebar clamps that works best on the mushroom on the left - otherwise you get too much vibration.

But I haven't used it in six months and the battery is dead (piece of crap), I really need to sell it, but I'm a lazy git!
