Camera mount

Hi: I personally have JT's dash mount (one of the site sponsors....JT's machine shop) With this setup, you can mount the camera behind the windshield and still have room for mounting other devices if you need to.

Depends..!

what you want to film...just the road ahead..body works and mounts..what you see on the helmet...:thumbup:

I have my Go PRO mounted on my handle bars with RAM mounts. It makes for better ride movies.

GoPro Clamp Mount


I bought a GoPro Clamp Mount like this one and I attach it to my upper A arm. I thought I would have some shaky video but that hasn't been the case at all.

Just below the windshield

Do you have a safety tether just in case??

GoPro mounting

I fabricated a bracket that fastens under the side panel. Works great, better whden it's not raining!

I bought a Butler cup before I even heard of Spyder lovers or there sponsors, along with it comes a place to mount numerous other attachments.

hero mount

Last year I bought a Sony movie camera and thought on it for months, as to where I could mount it.
At the last minute I came up with a perfect solution. My 2014 Limited has two clear wind deflectors on either side below the edges of the windshield.I removed one of the two mounting bolts and with a new longer bolt I was able to use a tubular spacer and bolt one of the camera mounts into the empty deflector mounting holes. You can make the bolt and spacer as long as you want to mount the camera as far outboard as you want.This gives me a rock steady picture although the sound is the whine of the 1330.

Normally on the side of my helmet so the lens is roughly level with my eyes to try and give a similar view. Ended up going with the nearside as I found the farside meant you saw a lot of road and it looked like you were driving on the verge. Did try on top of the helmet but it didn't look right, though that may work better on an RT because of the screen. Just used the curved stick on mount that came with the Spyder.

Have got a suction cup mount which I'm playing around with at the moment in various positions on the Spyder.

I've had it on my chest, but got too much of the instrument panel. Now I have a GoPro sticky mount on the side panel, under the mirror, and control it via the remote strapped to the handlebar.

Yes yes and yes on JT bar. Besides my go pro have phone, spot tracker and room for my GPS, which I never use. Yep the bar is great
