BornSinner Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 This How-To was written by "Diderr"This is a write up that I will be doing but with a different camera set-up.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7tp3-yN7dA so i was messing around and figured out a good idea for a cam mount. Supply list:(1)- 1/4"-20-1" screw (most cameras take this thread)(2-4)- 1/4" washers (depending on screw size)Tool list:power drill17/64 drill bit (again depending on your screw size)flat or philips head screw driveradjustable wrenchdrill a 17/64 hole in your passenger peg. where the hole goes depends on camera threading position and personal preference. the hole is barley big enough to get the screw through, I did this to insure a tight hold.insert a washer on the screw, then poke it through the hole, put on a nut, and tighten.add shims ( left over washers ) so that that your camera sits tight and in your desired position.thread cam on, all done!!!This is the camera that I will be set-up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaNick Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 Advice...Please don't add music to every video, it's so cliche. The sound of the bike banging through gears is the best music of all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flounder Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Hey whitey... I have read some reviews on that Oregon scientific camera your looking at and they were not that great.. Also, have you put any thought into how to keep the passenger peg from bouncing up and down.. I like the idea, but like I said, I would be a bit concerned with the peg vibrating and bouncing since its not a sold mount point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaNick Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 C-Net.com is what made my decision to purchase the Canon HV20 HD camcorder this New Years. The editor had it as his 3rd top pick of camcorders.Flounder.......You make a great point! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The editor had it as his 3rd top pick of camcorders.Flounder.......You make a great point!I have the Cannon Elura 100.. When I bought it last year, it had just won camera of the year.. Great camera, only problem is, now I dont want to put it on the bike for fear of ruining it.. As we all know,, cameras on bikes tend to become ground magnets or cop magnets....

flounder Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Doesn't the foot peg have a detent that keeps it from flapping around? I believe the passenger pegs will lock into place.It does but it will still vibrate with no weight on it and bumps while a camera is mounted to it would surely bounce.

magifesq Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 I bought a mini camera and 6" LCD screen to do a live vid out the rear so I can all but pitch the mirrors. Would you tap the electric directly from the battery or where? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornSinner Posted December 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 I ran it to a switch so I could cut the power on it too....but I ran it directly to the battery...Where did you get your 6" LCD Screen from...???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
