I used a couple of different cameras with a couple of different mounts and recorded my experiences on my webpage

http://www.logofwastedtime.com/2011/...otorcycle.html

The videos are pretty boring tests, I have not had the opportunity to film any "cool" rides yet.

I have the GoPro Motorsports hero, got it at 58cycle for $240. I do like it alot and it has the capability to take pictures every so many seconds (depending on how you set it up). I find the pictures are pretty cool to review after a ride as well.

here are a couple of videos with it on my drag Challenger:

I use the GoPro hero with helmet mount. Love the little camera, with the underwater housing it's uses are unlimited. Here is my first ride video with wife and I switching the camera back and forth.

I purchased the GoPro. I like the angle from the engine guard but would like to be able to start / stop the video (don't want it on all the time). Unless there is a remote control - guess I will mount it on the handlebars.

I use a Kodak DVR mounted on my right hand control pod with a RAM mount. It does pretty well video wise and I just put a piece of scotch tape over the mic opening in the case to take the wind noide out of the audio.

I use the open back of the Go Pro case and I do not really notice much wind noise at all.

I like the Contour GPS, which is mounted on the handlebar. Very good video even @ 720p. Here is a couple videos, one on day, and one at night.
The GPS feature is one of the big plus for recording all my trips.
