I like the first half mount location - you can see the folks working and good views all around. :thumbup:

that was dumb luck.. i actually had it aimed out further and my knee kept hitting it. thats where it landed... :lol:

no doubt im in a triple though!

heres where the mount wound up. big problem i had w/that ride was the tire wouldnt warm up and it woudl spin the rear and kick me over. i have other footage where i actually wound up in the other lane (on a back road) getting on it. :shock:

That's pretty good. Ya know after all my messing around with mounts and placements - I get the best results with the helmet stick-on. Don't know if it would work with you 1/2 flip-up though.

Barry, I also like the results of the helmet mount too. With that wide angle lens you dont really miss anything and its always pointed in the right direction. Can hardly wait till spring to take some more vidio. Some passes down the dragstrip and such. :D

I like taking a ride around the neighborhood and see folks out working as well. It makes me see I am not the only one that has to do yard work :lol:

Neat video. My favorite part was the nuclear flash at 4:37.
