After some trial and error, I figured out one of the best ways to get a better POV when shooting GoPro footage on your motorcycle. This mount setup will work on most bikes and this setup that I'm showing is specifically for doing the gas tank style mount on an R3. The only improvement I can see if getting the view just a little bit higher, I might find some extension to add, what do you guys think?
Parts Needed:
RAM Mounts Ball Head Base - bit.ly/34ed9N3
RAM Mounts Double Socket - bit.ly/3jlD8bO
RAM Mounts Action Camera Ballhead - bit.ly/36nw2zW
M5-0.8 x 55 mm Bolt - thd.co/36rzWaT
M6 Washer - thd.co/3jmC9Ib
If you have a larger bike, you can skip the ball head base mount and M5/M6 bolt and washers and just get one of these:
RAM Mounts Gas Tank - bit.ly/2Sfs7gf
Tool(s) Needed:
4mm Allen/Hex

This also reduces wind noise so much! Recording Engine noise is much easier, even up to triple digits. Anything faster obviously, I think I'd worry more about the GoPro falling off then wind noise. But Tank Mounting is definitely the way to go.

BladedAngel? What are you doing here 😂❤

You are doing the Lord’s work. You are a scholar and a saint.

@ricardoguzman2323 2 года назад

Its a brilliant idea mount the gopro that way. Thanks for sharing!

@up2space Год назад

Thank you so much for this video! Simple things can be so easy sometimes. I had to find a solution for my next racetrack visit, where helmet mounted cameras are not allowed. Now I found it. Thanks a lot! Best wishes from Germany

@moto.obsession Год назад

Was the track good with the camera being mounted to the bike similar to how I have it in the video?

@up2space Год назад

@@moto.obsession I think it worked very well. I had no issues while driving and the Video was also stable (no vibrations so far). The only thing I struggled was to find a way to secure it with a rope (our racetrack and organizer were very strict with us, but it woked fine). Next time I need a solution for the wind noise :) Best wishes from Germany

This is very informative and accurate but the downside for me is that i cant seem to find M5 0.8 x 55mm screw anywhere…. Went to two home depot, lowes, ace hardware but they dont have the 55mm long

@moto.obsession 3 года назад

Yeah you might have to order it online, I had it only at one of my local hardware stores

@chickenchaser3213 2 года назад

How would you tuck in then?? Stick with the chin mount set up also easier to get footage on multiple bikes…

@moto.obsession Год назад

I don’t go fast enough to need to fully tuck but yeah if you are tucking in or at a track you would want to go with a different route.

@BlokewithaBear Год назад

Great idea for the track or off-road but as it shows the speed you're riding at it's a definite no-go for me for road riding.

@ChannelJow 2 года назад

Looks like ride 4 (moto simulator game), rly nice, im going to try this

@yammerofficialph 2 года назад

I just love your vids. Helpful.

@Vittorio_Bociarotti 2 года назад

@SultanNation 5 месяцев назад

you wont be able to vlog with this ? The mic in your helmet will be way far from the go pro and its going to be hectic one to set up again and again.

@PaulGraysonj605 3 года назад

Hey man, I’m enjoying your videos. Very informative and easy to follow. Just got one question...what length is the double socket you are using?

@moto.obsession 3 года назад

It’s the shortest one, I think they name is size small. If you use the longer ones it tends to shake the camera too much.

@PaulGraysonj605 3 года назад

@@moto.obsession ok great. That makes sense, thanks.

@Akhmad_Nuryadi 3 года назад

Simple & useful 👍🏾

@colin55594 Год назад

Just gonna slap the gopro on the tank for now with sticky mount. How slow is that r3 lol ? Got a ducati supersport 950 for my first bike and it's boring slow

@moto.obsession 7 месяцев назад

No one I know gets an R3 to be faster than other bikes 😂

@soumen8624 2 года назад

I have a scooter so gas tank mount is not possible but I’ll try the helmet mount.

@Rvkor 10 месяцев назад

Question. What is the length of the screw that goes in the gas tank? after you put it on the Ram ball mount. Is it 27mm?

@moto.obsession 10 месяцев назад

Its a M5-0.8 x 55 mm Bolt

@gunslinginggringo 2 года назад

Too bad my visor is jet black

@nh.create Год назад

Awesome solution! One question, must the m5 screw be 55mm long? Can it be shorter since the original one is shorter too

@up2space Год назад

You may have to try a bit... in case just cut the scew carefully or buy another one in the later known length✌🏻

@moto.obsession Год назад

I got that size as it’s equals about the same as the OEM one when you account for the raised part of the mount - hope that makes sense

@ADDONRACER 2 года назад

Wud this work on a nakedbike? I mean the gastank is maybe not as high as supersport bikes so..

@lozoya2 2 года назад

I'm trying to find a 55mm bolt - i'll update if I can get it to work.

@Luke-Godzilla 3 года назад

Can you not just stick the standard flat mount on the tank?

@moto.obsession 3 года назад

Not on the R3, all the default GoPro mounts they include don’t conform to the shape well or block the key/opening to get into the gas tank.

@RnJmotovlog 11 месяцев назад

should I use a wide angle for this position?

@Goczku 3 года назад

Can i take race position on my tank with that type of camera mount ?

@moto.obsession 2 года назад

No, it gets in the way

@kahileigh 2 года назад

Can you still full tuck arount the gas tank mount?

@moto.obsession Год назад

Not really, this is better for regular road use and not going crazy fast. If you are needing to fully tuck a lot I would stick with the chin Mount.

@mrracer8011 Год назад

Amazon link ???

@rnarshaII. 9 месяцев назад

no tucking ig😢

@RR-fv5ng Год назад

What filter are you using on your go pro? :)

Anyone know if the RAM mounts gas tank will fit a 22 r7?

was so excited but then see my gas tank has no screws....

See now if you can in a crash and lose the cam thats on you

If I crash I’m not going to be worried about my camera all that much
