Do you want to mount a camera onto the bike or to the rider?

Do you have an existing video camera?

What do you want to spend?

What sort of results do you expect?

Will you be watching the footage on a TV?,is it a modern TV?

No I don't have an existing camera.

And I think it would be to mount to the bike and not the rider.

Happy to spend up to about $500 probably (as long as that's realistic!)

I suppose, only expectation would be for him to be able to see how fast he's really going!! BUt he does track days so might be good for footage form that too.

Doesn't have to be too 'slick' but we would want to watch it on a TV (a Sony Bravia).

Hope that helps.
