Although I've never used one I hear good things about Hog Collar from Hogtag.

General camera vehicle tip: The lower the camera is mounted, the more the sensation of speed is achieved. A slight "zoom" helps too.

I use a RAM ToughClaw (you can get one with a lock, too) to temporarily mount GPS or GoPro on the Harley.

I just recently carved a mount out of Delrin plastic block and mounted it to my right front fork just below the aux lights on my FLHTK. I used some super heavy duty releasable tie wraps (suckers are a good 1/2" wide x 1/8" thick!). Haven't had a chance to try it out yet, though.

That is incorrect. At least on my 2017 Limited with Yaffe's. I have had more than one person ask about my camera in the the road Trip section I post pictures on. I do video and extract still shots using GoPro Hero 5 Black. It has great video stabalization at all speeds. I have however been using it more on the chin of my modular helmet. That gives you the equal of an eye view and looks much better.

I backed one of my windshield screws out of my windshield and replaced it with a GoPro windshield mount...I have the Hero GoPro 7. Amazing clear video. Substantially better than my INNOVV K2 system.

I bought the small GoPro clamp and I mount it on my TP rack or engine guard bar


And it rotates

I did not have luck with any mount except for on my helmet. Too much vibration.

BUT, this is likely related to me using an older GoPro Hero. I think mine is a 4. I’ve heard the newer ones are better at stabilizing the video.
