thinking about purchasing the go pro hero 3+ before the spyder goes criusing!

I used one of the stock sticky backed curved mounts and put it one the left hand mirror. I let it sit overnight and have had no problems. I do not take movies so any shake does hurt. I also keep it anchored with a safety cable. Go Pro is a great piece of equipment !

I just bought the Garmin Virb. I took a few short videos from the truck through the windsheild and it looks pretty good. I put a mount on snowmobile helmet and on the left side of the sled near the winshield and will get to try them both next week. I also plan on putting a mount on the upper A arm of my Spyder.
I dont think the video of the Virb is quite as good as the Hero 3+ but it is not bad either. I did notice there is a lot less "bending" at the edges of the screen with the Virb.

Wow...that dhgate has quite a few different inexpensive ones. At those prices, I have to wonder about the quality and longevity.

On the other hand, I really hate over paying just for a name...

i've had my NO NAME camera for over 2 yrs now, and it has never failed me once... :thumbup:
:bowdown: works perfect every time i've used it....

i turned in on while on Rt. 12 in Utah, and it ran for over 2 hrs. while riding in the freezing rain, 9600 ft. elevation, stop n go, etc etc etc... the only thing i'd like now, is this camera with the 'remote'... i'd velcro the remote to my handbar and switch it on n off at will... :clap:

I have a sticky mount in center of top of dash , used suction cup on windshield (center) and on wind deflector , none have any issues of vibration. I have the extended battery , so I can use the power supply I installed for my battery tender(it came with a USB plug adaptor . That way I do not need to worry about running the camera battery down, also charges it. I use a tether for all three locations .

Thanks for the info. I will check this out as we are looking for a video cam. I have to say that I would not want to look at your garage door after :cheers: To many of these :shocked:

I have a cheap camera that I bought on WOOT. Use this clamp and shoot right through the windshield. Good video but poor audio.
