Hey all I put a post on here a few days ago about how I made a $3.00 mount out of PVC pipe. This Christmas I was borded and was able to make a much better mount out of metal parts in the pluming section of the hardware store. This one cost $6.00, it works and looks better, If you cant see the pic on here e-mail me and I will send it to you. Peace!

Cheaper than a Ram Mounts. I bet you can put it on Ebay for $12 and you'll have LOTS of business.

 

Guess I'm missing something, but what is the purpose of mounting a camera on your bars?

 

Most digital cameras can shoot video also, I can record for 2 hours.

 

Taking pictures. On the road, in the wind pictures. Sure beats holding one in your hand while riding.

 

Probably a hundred reasons. Maybe that would make a good subject for a thread.

I got one. In the wintertime when you can't ride, you can sit in the warm comfort of your home and watch old movies of your favorite rides.

 

Looks GREAT!

I'm getting ready to figure out the same thing for my brand-new video camera that I just got for xmas.

I can't wait to take videos of my rides! I'm trying to figure out my mounting options; considering handlebars and also considering engine guard (for a different angle to fool with).

Looks like I'm heading to the hardware store.

If you end up selling a kit or will put a parts-list together, let me know.

After I shoot the pictures/Videos I use the windows movie maker that comes with most all computers now days. I like editing and rewatching the videos. I spend hours messing with it. I am lucky enough to have the program on my work computer so I mess with it a lot on the governments dime! cant beat that. I put a tread out but there are so many they are easy to miss. If you wonder what the mount is for watch this.

Hey Poor Boy,

You'd better mount that sucker behind your windshield with all those bugs in Florida.
I know here in Texas, some of these bugs would be pretty hard on that lens.
Just a thought nayway. Good luck to ya.
