Bulletcam (attaching to bike)

[Dracan]

I've just received my bulletcam through the post today. For those of you that have bulletcams - how do you attach it to your bike? I want to put it on the tank somewhere so that I can see both the road and the speedo.

Gaffer tape works quite well.

Get the speedo in shot and it makes it very, very easy to prosecute. And the screen's usually annoying when watching it.


Also seems to spoil the point of having a bullet cam, as it's not much more subtle than a normal camera once you've raised it high enough to see the road.

If you do want to go this way, foam and electrical tape will probably do it.

Try one of those double sided velcro things i belive it can be easily removed and it should hold it where you want it and not create a problem in removing.

I use pipe insulation (get long tubes of it from B&Q) to wrap round the camera then gaffa tape or cable ties to attach it.

The foam protects it a bit if you drop it, gives the cable ties something to grip and you can cut it to fit better on a curve if need be.

He can insist if he thinks a crime has been commited (including speeding), the cam can be used as evidence against you.

Don't know the specific laws, but basicially if he believes there's evidence of a crime being commited on there, yes, I believe so.

If you leave your dirty videos on there, expect then to get a bigger audience when they play them back at the police station.

i'd try and fit it on the side of the bike so you can see the front wheel ala moto--gp, i think the shots look more impressive

Lets say the crime was slightly more serious.
Lets say instead that someone else had a video and it was of your girlfriend being raped. How would you feel if they could just say "sorry, can't see it mate, do me for withholding evidence".

I'm really not that up on such things, but if he suspects there may be evidence of a crime being commited, he is well within his rights to take possesion of it.

Sorry to hijack this thread but could anyone tell me, is it actually illegal to have a camera mounted to the bike??? I've got a camera mount for a standard video camera which "suckers" onto the tank, can I get done for having it there?? Obviously if I'm speeding then that would be dodgy as the coppers would be able to suss out from the video footage but if I wasnt speeding then no crime has been committed...... correct??

You've seen how I have mine, but when the bulletcam is mounted on the tank you can't see the speedo on my bike (the inition key is in the way!)

Are you going to mount the camera itself on the tank? I seem to remember that you can only fit a packet of chewing gum under your seat!

[instigator]

Seen this mount on ebay:

Seems good if you have a scoop like that (kawasaki ninjas, yes?) but wouldn't it get an awffy lot of vibration on the bike like that?

[riichy]

do they do them for zxr400..i want i want
