Anybody have a suggestion for mounting a small camera? Helmet cam is not in the budget at this time, Something that clamped on the edge of the windshield was what I was thinking of. This was all I have found so far. Not sure I it'll work on the bike.

Take a look on ebay as there are several types there. No matter what you buy you're going to have to modify it somewhat to fit the vision!! Good luck.

I just purchased a Gopro camera and the mount is similar to the one you have in the attached web link, I used the suction cup on the upper fairing cover plate and it worked fine. Although I tied a tether line back to the handle bars in case the cup failed.

Thanks. Good idea on the tether. Camera isn't very expensive, but I'd hate to have create a hazard it it came off.

The GoPro has become pretty much the standard for the small, mounted cameras in the sports industry. I have found that the wide-angle lens, video quality, and mounting options are superior to anything else out there. I have the HD version, and it rocks. My 2 cents.
