Sportbike cam might be a little better with articulation but its 3x the price....i still dont see how you secure the camera to the mount, what if the camera doesnt have the nut on the bottom for a tripod?

Just buy another set of those grommet/screw things and have them on both shields. I swap mine out whenever I take the camera and it's FAST like that. Taking those things out each time would not be worth it!

I'll post pics of the setup later.
Took some photos of the setup with the HandyCam. Resolution is not that hot, but you get the picture. Here's what the camera (Olympus FE-115) looks like mounted to the tank:









Camera bottom for the screw:






And here's the setup for mounting. The screws come with the mount kit, and I have a hex bolt kit. You'll need a size "5" to remove the stock gas cap bolts, and a size "4" for the screws that come with the kit. As I mentioned before, I bought the rubber grommets from Pep Boys to put between the tank and the mount, and also under the camera. Cost about $2 for a box of three.

I have a darker tinted windscreen....I'm guessing the picture probably wont come through too well due to that....
