Default $ 3.00 Camera mount for your Harley

I made a mount out of a "T" piece ofPVC pipe three hose clams a screw and a bolt. I put a video on here the other day and got some e-mailasking how I did it. This new video has some footage of what it looks like on my scoot. I got a 2 gb memory stick for theso I can record for 2 hours. The quality is not crystal but still work for me. This is footage from some mountains behind Camp Zama, Japan.

I mounted a camera on mine last summer, but at higher rmps the vibration causes havoc on the camera and it shuts down, never played with it much again after that, nice footage

Here's my camera mount ...



But seriously ... that was a good idea. How did you get the little screw for the camera onto the PVC pipe?

I built a way better one today but still only $10 to make. I will get some pics of it on here soon.

I got the screw on by simply drilling a hole throgh the center of the cap, you have to space it correctly with washers to ensure the camera is in the correct position when it is all the way tight.
