    A big word of warning here gents - the supplied suction cup mount is very good - BUT..........mounting on the tank is no good. Our tank is just a plastic cover and the GoPro bounces around like a good un.
    I have a RAM mount which i use for my sat nav. I just purchased a tripod adaptor for the RAM mount and for the GOPro its self and all is good.
    However - if you mount the suction mount on the side fairing all will be good.
    There are various options with adhesive mounts that come with the motor sport pack, but it means sticking them onto bodywork, and I didn't want to do that.
    I did toy with putting an adhesive mount onto the front mudguard buy changed my mind as it would be a permanent fixture.
    The view through the screen is OK. I have the dark high screen fitted and even that is OK.

    I have only done a couple of tests, but all seems well.
    I did put a thin rubber washer between the gopro tripod mount and the ram ball tripod mount though.
    I will post a photo in a bit.

    Waiting for my birthday to get the Go Pro 2, think I have left enough hints with my wife now :) even got my three young boys saying daddy wants a Go Pro Hero hd 2 camera for his birthday (2, 4 and 8 years old) at every opportunity, birthday is in June so thought I would sew the seed early !

    looking at the quality of these cams I can't wait to get one fitted :) zeepony as baron von grumble has made me laugh so much I might give it a try as well :p

    I like the idea of a go pro as well, not only for the bike but for cycling and I also do alpine ski racing and a good video of the Super Giant Slalom this year would have been ace, especially as I finished in the top ten!
