For those of you who want a camera on their bikes when riding, here somthing simple you can do to make it happen.

All you need is a piece of metal, 16 gauge flat kind you can get from Lowes, a few rubber washers, any bolt/nut combo and a 1/4 wing nut to hold the camera down. Cut the steel about 3 inches, bend at a 90 degree angle. Then drill a hole that will fit the bolt of choice in the flat part on the fairing stay just above the gas tank. Do the same with the piece of steel. Mount it and BAM! You have a camera mount.

Would you mind taking more pics of how it's mounted? Could be useful.

So, the bad news. That is the only picture I have of the setup. I was looking through some old pictures of my Fiz and figured I'd share that. Its really simple to make and setup. Here is a sample video as an example.

Sweek, you should edit some of my school papers!
