Sportbikecam works for me. I like to have more options of rear facing and lower views and such. Working on it/

 

Onarom, I wouldn't trust velcro with something like this haha. I bought what nauree linked.

 

thanks guys ill just try to make my own for now but if it doesnt work out im gonna be ordering one of the ones on ebay. not really looking to spend a hundred bucks but the ones for 30 are looking good to me

 

I just made my own. I modified a $14.99 camera bracket that I bought at Best Buy. Bolted it into the threads on the swingarm. Works brilliantly. Went on a spirited ride through the mountains a few days ago and will post that video as soon as I get it edited. Here's a link to the test video I filmed.............

CLICK "WATCH IN HIGH QUALITY". It's right under the number of views the video has.......

I hope nobody took me seriously. Don't do it! Superglue and Velcro are the CBR's foe, not friend- but it you own a Gixxer, it might help strenthen the welds on the frame!

Let me know how you like your new rig.

@Blue- Aren't you worried about leaning too much and using your camera as a frame slider? Nice set-up though. The video turner out nice. I may have to try that with my Canon.

 

blue fox thanks!! i went to best buy and got that bracket cut the flash mount off and put it on! my foot gets in the way and it bounces alot but i will be fixing this! i also had the idea to bend the bracket straight and put it under my mirror. would be a better shot not obstructed by anything. ill be playing around this week and hopefull be getting some good shots this weekend!

 

That might have been me. Cam is from www.helmetcamera.com and mini dv camcorder is in a fanny pack.

^ Thanks Roland

 

Nope, I did some maths and the camera bracket will slightly scrape only if I'm RIGHT on the edge of my tires. I went on a ride through the Gila Mountains with Hamster and we filmed some stuff. With my lean, he said the camera was hovering less than a 1/4" from the road surface.

 

ya mine is on the swing arm now and wont scrape i didnt do any math just leaned the bike over on the edge of the tire and it didnt touch. i bent mine up a little tho just in case.
