A question about mounting....

Actually so far, I like the ball mount on the end of the handlebars the best. Nice thing about this is you would put a RAM 1" ball mount on any bike, (well, most) and put the camera there with a few RAM attachments.

I have Throttlemeisters on both of my bikes and wasn't quite sure how to mount the ball. On the right side, the Thottlemeister needs to rotate so you can't mount anything on the outside. A call in to Fred over at Throttlemeister and he sent me some longer bolts with a bushing made just for the recessed well that the normal alan head bolt sits in. So I've managed to put ball mounts on both handlebar ends, and I can put the GoPro in either position.

Haven't shot any footage or video on the Busa yet with that setup, but that's on the list. That birds-eye photo of riding through the twisties is what I'm going for.

On the K1200R, I've managed to mount 14 ball mounts on the bike. Which'll give me 14 positions to shoot from.
