I've got an md80 (knock off Laughing ) I've attached it to my bike in various places but the vibrations always ruin the video. Any body got any ideas what i can put under it to stop the vibrations?

Attach it to your body (helmet preferably) would be my only suggestion.

Your tyre looks like it isn't fitted properly, seems to wobble around a lot more than the rim.

I taped mine to the inside of my lid in front of my nose/mouth. Needed a spacer on mine to get the correct ange though as otherwise it's just lots of video of the road.

As i said.
Duct tape, cardboard and velcro. It works well, all of my videos were done with the same mount, so there are no vibrations.

Duct tape keeps it secure to the lid, velcro keeps the camera attached to the cardboard and the cardboard absorbs any vibrations. Took me a while to get a decent setup but now that i have it i'm happy.

Oh, and if you want to put it in your helmet, i recommend you buy a strip of velcro, and stick it to the back of the camera, then just slam it into the helmet next to your left eye.

I got one of these, mainly for using in the car on track days but I stuck it to my Honda CB1 t'other day for lols. It's attached to the rear foot peg; not bad for vibes really and a nice view of the rear suspension movement. It shows how soft the CB1 is Laughing
