I've seen a lot of good movies with the GoPro chest mount ( ). It shows a good POV image and lean angles

This angle seems to work good also:


An then off course theres the usual side helmet, gas tank, handlebars, rear view angles.

Do a few laps of each and then mixed up.

Though this isn't my 'Duke, it shows how the placement of two mounts on the bike gives you some options by reversing the mounting direction. I have one mount just ahead of the fuel filler and one on the tail. Then I swap between sessions and edit this together after. I have since picked up another Go Pro so I can have one on each mount.

Yeah, yeah. It's not a particularly fast lap so hold your tongues!!!

I saw one this weekend mounted on the bracket for the rear foot peg facing rearward. It would be interesting if you had a buddy follow you. The guy said he has had it mounted for a couple months with just the double back tape supplied, but I would still use a wire until confident.

I made up a street video with a bunch of GoPro mounting positions. Some things work others don't. Hit the mute button if you don't like the tunes otherwise sit back and enjoy.
