yeah that's coming soon.. the hero 2 looks awesome..

having said that, I have a Drift HD170 Stealth with the helmet mount, a handlebar mount (I have it on the mirror stalk) and a suction cup mount. A buddy has the GoPro Hero and he loves it too... this was before the 2 came out...

Sorry guys...I'm cheap. Don't feel like spending $$$ on a mount.

I've found a way to mount my camera for under $4 dollars.










I purchase this clamp for like $3.80 freeshipping from China. Then found out clamp will not work. Instead I mod...then use a longer M4 X 0.7 30mm screw. Place some electrical tape on tank for some protection. Just try it out today & very solid. Does not vibrate...very stable video. Will post video on youtube soon. So anyone wants a $5 dollar set up...this is good option. Nothing against go pro...but I'm cheap...

Talking

Rear mount is centered and just before rear airfoil on back of helmet.This way I'll be able to open either back door to remove cameras.

I have no air resistance straight ahead and very little when glancing to side.I am wondering if that will change with two mounted?Weight isn't noticable either.

Caught the HD Hero on sale last Christmas and will probably upgrade when the Hero 2 goes on sale.I've looked at all the other cameras and decided on Hero as the best for me.One button on/off and spare battery sold me.
