hi andy ,

which camera do you have?

i have the ATC2000 and am wodering the same thing.. im contemplating using the hot glue gun to stick it under the 999 badge on the l/h/s but thinking it may get blown off??

im rather loathed to drill holes in a lovely side panel!!

[andyb]

Well i run track fairings so its not so bad..........allbeit i aquired ex haslam corse carbon kevlar ones so i am giving it serious thought............

i bought a kit from

www.4kam.co.uk

I have seen on ebay germany or usa systems which bolt to a std. 749/999 petrol cap, at the moment i can only find the style that bolt to the round caps as fitted to a 916 etc. If i find the advert i'll post a link.

I am looking at getting one of these....what is the quality like, worth the purchase?

Any chance of some footage from it at all?

hi bud,

i got it for use on my greenlaner and it really did the job well for an all in one unit.

the problem with it on a green laner was that i mounted it on the handlebars and it suffered from vibration and general upy downiness!!

m gonna stick it on the duke this weekend and see how it goes... subject to finding a bloody place to mount it!!,

if you go to youtube and type macey2kk you'l see some of my greenlanin vids,

the quality is alot better usually, but i had to really compress them for youtube.

happy viewing and dont laugh!

Why not just mount it to your helmet or something, that will cut out a LOT of the vibrations etc.

We might also get a running commentary while you ride

Hi, Andy...maybe you can get some ideas from this site

http://www.ram-mount.com/.

I've used their stuff successfully to mount my satnav, but haven't tried mounting a camera. One point to ponder is that the basis of this system is components are clamped to a hard rubber ball, which may reduce vibration. Anyway, however you choose to do it, good luck with the project!

Ive bought some of the suction mounts from dogcamsport.........so we'll see.
