for you that have them, where are you putting them? Thought about under or on top the viser, but wouldn't it be seeing low? right now may just try the google strap for a test run. Also if viser mounter i plan on more secureing it than just the round flat surface pad, rivets or screws.



Its the contourHD

Id be dubious about drilling holes in your melon bucket. I am using one now, and placed it right above the visor, with the dbl sided tape, weather changes and bouncing havent affected it yet. If your worried about losing the camera due to the tape failing, just clean the surface very well with acetone, or something similar and let it dry before install. I have also thought of tying a lanyard to it, and attaching the lanyard to one of the screws on the visor just in case. That tape holdong the mount is the same type of tape theat hold all your car or truck exterior trim on and the emblems, so it does work very well. I hope this helps Jim!

I have 2 helmets with mount points attached by 3m tape that comes on the bottom of the attachment point. No tree branches, not washing, no falling off the quad, has ever pulled a attachment point off! Once you install the GoPro points you better be sure thats where ya want it, cause once it's there you aint moving it. LOL!! I mount mine on the top of my helmet, it gets railed by branches every time I'm out riding. LOL!! But I like it there.

I like mine mounted on my handle bars. The only problem is my beer holder sometimes splashes beer on the camera. I have a old pos camera that came with a very strong large black rubber band that goes around the helmet under the visor and hold the camera tight. But I prefer the video from the handlebars better.
