@Pittimus84 1inch diameter PVC piping and a metal ornamental door hanger.. and ducktape. lots of duck tape. that road is so bumpy, i honestly thing the results would have been better on a smoother road. unfortunatly smooth twisty roads don't exist in the state of vermont. the door hanger thing, attached at 45 degrees to brace the piping with the camera at the top. attached to the rear grab handle that SVs have. the door hanger was semi-under the rear passenger seat resting on a ridge.
@HAIONSTRESS Yeah, I was going to use a telescoping handle from a carwash extending brush, but I mounted it with the gopro on the end, and just the weight of that so far out caused a ton of flexing in the rode, and the bike was on the rear stand on the back porch, that was just from me letting go it if after taping it on to see how it looked, so I scrapped that idea until I get better equipment
@Pittimus84 you need that second support mounted at an acute angle. the second support will keep it from moving around so much. i use legit 3M duct tape and it didnt leave any residue or anything on my paint or grab handle, but i made sure to put the soft side of some extra velcro adhesive i had at the bottom of the PVC pipe so it wouldnt scratch the paint. i think we need lighter cameras!
@DarkNinja75 its my second set. next pair i buy is going to probably be an over the sleeve from teknic or alpinestar something like that. the smx airs feel so nice though, especially when its hot.
@dprider02 the camera mount.. 1inch diameter PVC style pipe attached to the passenger grab rail, decorative metal door hinge attached at a 45 degree angle, the hinge pressed against this ridge in the plastic surround under the rear seat. i secured it, then put the seat back on and it held it well. without the second support the mount would just flail around. it still did a bit but that road is so bumpy not much i could do.
Well if were lookin at it that way ive been riding for about 9 years before i actually got my first sports bike.I cant wait to get my ContourHD and start making videos again.I just need a decent voice recorder that i can plug a mic into and im set to go after that.
@sparda1123 thanks, i feel for you man i want u to get out there too! think about it this way, i didn't get my first bike until i was 25.. so you've already got like six years on me or so.
@ToastToGo thats nuttin, thats just the road closest to ride to after work. i have to get some more vids of the other roads soon! the picnic table, yeah its a weird place.. if I sit there for about an hour I will see at least two bikes almost crash on that turn, its funny and scary hehe.
@Wilks89 hey Wilkster. yeah man, i don't get the urge to really make them anymore because i havnt been able to budget a gopro or contour camera yet. Last night i watched a vlog from member seppes, in HD, riding around laguna seca.. gets passed by miguel duhamel, and its just cool.
camera quake...........

I like this video, because the rider did not load the video with unnecessary music, and we can hear the V-Twin sound.

what did you use for your pole camea? I'm looking at doing a pole camera but using the professional mounting stuff and it's expensive
