[QUOTE="CraigRegs, post: 934196, member: 4441"] Intersesting mount. Looks nice. But... If I'm correct in assuming the cam is mounted to the bag and the bag to the bike (via magnets/straps/what have you), I don't think this will get the results you're after. The steadiest shots come from the steadiest mounts. For example, take a stationary tripod, add the rubber plate you've fabricated, and if the tripod is jarred, the camera can now move more, not less. On the bike, look for a rock-solid mounting surface first, not something squishy like a tank bag. Handlebars, footpegs, luggage rack, even body work. Then keep your mount as short as possible. Longer mount=longer lever. A longer lever magnifies the motion from the secured end to the outboard end where the camera is mounted. [/QUOTE]
