GoPro Mount

[jzb54]

Can anyone recommend what type of mount to use for a GoPro? I have a Hero 5 Black.

I have a 2016 RT Limited. Would like to like to find a stable/secure place to mount on my Spyder with little to no visual obstruction.

Thanks for your help!

when i had my RT, i had the bar from JT's machine shop http://spyderstore.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=60&product_id=51

my go pro 5 like yours was mounted on a RAM ball and mount on this bar. easy to do. can lock it with a kradlelock unit.

+1 JT's or the new TricLED Black powdercoated Spyder Dashbar. Comes with RAM mount balls. Has the word Spyder cut through it.

I use a sticky mount on top of the left mirror. I was really surprised at first how stable the image is. I've been using this method for a little over a year without any problems.

Go Pro Mount

Thanks for the input guys. Ordered the dash mount from spyderstore.com. I was able to get the mounting bracket, ram mount ball, and the GoPro mount all in one stop. I was out under $100 with shipping. Yippee

We're headed to the Spyder rally in the hill country near Austin in 2 weeks. They say there is going to be over 250 people there and 175-180 Spyders. Should get some great pics and video

I use the Ram U bolt mount and have no issues with it.

I hate to correct you, but Austin is near Boerne, TX, (ha ha) home of the Spyder rally Oct. 19-21. We are 20 miles NW of San Antonio on IH10W, actually about 80 miles SW of Austin. We are somewhat concerned about the number of Spyders showing up. What to do with 175+ Spyders riding in our beautiful hill country. Welcome to Boerne. See ya.

Does anyone use the helmet cam? How does the video turn out?

I do the same...simple and effective and no windshield in the way

Jack, I hope to see you next week....when will you arrive in Boerne? Also put in you year and model of your Spyder as when you ask a question later on folks will need to know so they can better help you. Looking forward to seeing you. G

I've yet to capture any video with the Spyder but I use a helmet cam when snowmobiling. This follows your line of sight and gives you much more variety of subject matter than just the road ahead. I've experimented with various stationary mounts and some serve a purpose but for more subject matter I would recommend a helmet mount.

Go pro

Here is what I have for set up

 

[Bob Denman]

JT's mount, and a Kamlock to keep it secure. :2thumbs:

I did the exact same thing with the exact same results. On the left mirror ledge I can (if I have to) reach out and pull it off, but so far I have been pleased with that placement.

I use an ION camera on the helmet and this is one video. Lot of wind noise.

Can you post a link to your items I’m looking to do the same thing?

You may not get a response to this, 14hog. The last post on this prior to yours was 3 years ago:thumbup:
