I use a combination of the included Hero mounts and misc RAM mounts on my bike to mount my cameras. I have bought every version of the Hero Camera since they have come out and the Hero2 is by far the best camera that they have come out with.

The Hero2 gives you the ability to use external microphones that I will be experimenting with soon. If you have questions, fell free to PM me.

Some of my videos...

I like the engine guard mount (GoPro seat mount). Mounting it there gives a good picture of the front tire & rim while capturing the ride and scenery. I wasn't down with sticking mounts to my helmet or the body of the bike.

I like that crash bar mount that some of you posted, here is one from atop my helmet riding the coast between Bodega Bay and Jenner:

And here are a few with it mounted among various parts of our 9 sec Challenger:

I honestly do not see all the hub bub about the new GP2 yet? These video's look like they were filmed by ESPN or Speed on my 55" led tv but when they go thru one of the online sites such as you tube they are so dumbed down that they loose most of the vividness anyway, carry on!

I am looking forward to the remote feature that can be added to the new GP2 and they say it is compatible with my GP hero 1080 so I will be hopefully getting one of these when they come out in February.

Sweet I like all the videos. GP2 seem to make sense to me being a first time buyer. The remote feature and being able to stream video its a easy prediction we are going to see many gopros one time use situations where camera get destroyed.

I'm interested in getting a GoPro 2. A couple questions for you GoPro users.
*How long does a battery charge last in the unit?
*Is the only way to recharge the unit by pluging it into a computer, or is there a unit to plug into a wall socket?

I'm planning a trip out West, but will not have a computer for recharging. I was just wondering what my options are if the battery needs to be recharged.
Thanks.

I picked up a wall charger on Amazon.com for $22.00 with two extra batteries.
The charger comes with wall / cigarette adapter cords.
Just amazon.com for GoPro Batterry

I just bought the GP Seat Mount, haven't had a chance to try it out.
I have used the chest mount, on the electraglide you get a lot of fairing and gauges... On the t-sport the chest mount was great.
The helmet mount I've tried on the right side below 30 degrees and it worked well and didn't fog up.
