Bike Cam positions

Post by Spudda »

Been out today messing with my bike cam .... I'm not planning on using it everytime I go out but thought Id have a play

The mounts it came with weren't suitable so I purchased one of these little suckers

But then came the problem of where to mount it

First Video is where its mounted on the rev counter and the second video shows it mounted on the tank
The tank doesn't vibrate so much but I feel its too exposed

On the clocks is a bit wobbly (the footage, not the riding! ), I prefer it on the tank. Having said that, how intrusive is it with the cam on the tank?

I have mine on the tank. I know it looks intrusive there but I've not had any issues with it.
