Have a friend that used on on a long run with www.rftw.org.... He said, it was a learning curve but overall he LOVED the camera....

Note to self "turn off camera BEFORE you go into the public restroom"

I have one, non HD. Have used it on several snowmobile trips, never on the bike yet. Should have done that last week on our trip back from AZ.

Very happy with mine.

I have a Go Pro HD that I bought a month ago, I haven't had too many oportunities to use it, but I love it so far, still getting used to it, but it's pretty easy to use and the video is excellent.

Got it for father's day and love it, only cons is editing it's very difficult cause it doesn't have software to support it, I did add the tripod mount which mounts perfectly on my Ram mount which I use for my GPS and Cell phone.I drilled a hole in the case for power supply by using my old Motorolla Razor lighter power cord perfect match.I can record as long as I want to without recharging the battery and can watch from my lap top via HDMI.

I just bought one but my son now owns it, he is going to let me use it for trip to Sturgis. Its the HD one and it says and other owners confirmed to use a hi quality SD card. Kingston works the best and a 16G is about as large as you want to go.

Very nice editing Doc. Where did you have it mounted for the forward looking shots?

Thank you, the forward shots were shot using the suction cup mount to the top of the fairing.

I meant the forward shots that included your leg - the camera was mounted behind you somehow.
