Ok, experimentation is over. I have the perfect set-up. No jello effect, smooth video, no clicks, etc. I'm considering starting a thread just about this. I'll post pics of the mount, and a link to the new video. The Video takes time to process, it's in 1.85Gb chunks. WAIT TILL YOU SEE THIS!!!!!

Still working on it..I have to wait 'till tomorrow to try out something different. If I can just get rid of the jello effect...I don't know where in N.Y. you are, but when I went to school at SUNY New Paltz, there was a road outside of town called shivertown road..It was (mainly) straignt, but if you got up to 50 or so, you could get airborne...

Troll I final had the pleasure in watching your video with the new location mount,sweet!!I'd have to believe you narrowed it down and sticking with this setup.That looks like a fun road to travel on.Here in town we have a road that I traveled for the first time on the bike called,Winterton rd.It's probably a 9 mile stretch with hair pin turns and such.The fun part of it all is it is both up and downhill so occasionally you get what we describe as belly whopper feeling when it goes uphill and then that quick drop.The unfortunate side is it is a high travel road to cagers as well but, all and all still a blast!

 ::)  DC...buddy, there is a stretch of road I take to visit my sister highway 41, on difrent occassions I have travel the length of that road and seen perhaps 2 cars on it other then in the small towns I pass through. Once I was on it after midnight and never saw one vehicle on it all night. On that road this month in one week...

Sometimes you get lucky. no traffic is only a matter of good timing. Living in the wilderness has some advantages, but I sure miss home...Long Island, N.Y.!

How do you find roads with hardly any cars on them?   :o  It must be nice.

I'm just getting started...I can hardly wait to tackle the North Georgia Mountains...I've about used up every curvy road around here.

  Troll that was really good and so nice to see that you follow the speed limits so well, a nice sound track some good music would really make it fun to watch.....make more so I can go for long rides this winter.....

That's really great, Troll.  If you took off the lower, you should lose most of the undulating phenomenon, and it will get even better.  I'm also anxious to see a pic of the mount.  Good stuff.

  Ok, I went out to the dealer and bought a handlebar/seat post mount for the camera. They didn't have the roll bar mount in stock. I put it on the turn signal stalk, and went for a ride. The results are very encouraging. The jello effect is minimal, and there are no funny clicking noises. The vertical line on the right is the edge of the plexi lower..Not sure they actually do anything, so I took them off. The ride is up Bliss Rd. on Granddad bluff. Most of the turns are marked 15 mph....yeah, right. Very happy with the results. Thanks for the idea. I think I'll put it on the other side so it will pick up the exhaust sound for the next test. So far this is the best motorcycle point of view movie I've been able to get. I think I can make it work the same way on the W......

Troll, I mounted my GoPro on the left turn signal stem (Used the roll bar mount from GoPro) It really shows the lean angle and there's no vibration, I had to run the camera in upside down mode but it flips the playback right side up. You can see the location in the photo.

I have a helmet mount, and it's great, but...Having it on the bike gives a different perspective. The lean angle of the bike is not evident with the helmet mount, but the pictures are clear. I want BOTH!!! Always want something I can't have...I'll figure it out...I'm getting closer.
