    That would be good mate I'd like to see some of your vid as my kids bought me one for fathers day! BUt some of the dirt Division guys say you need a higher quality one for decent video??

    here is a video of 2 of them being crash tested



    taken from 2 cameras

    one got turned off after the crash but was all good
    the sound is a bit naff but you have to expect that with these bike and the bad mounting
    and the video quality is much better on my computer something in the eaditing and upload ?

    looks really atrocious, the quality of the image while stationary is much better than I expected, so i suppose if you could mount it really well it might not go all wavy when you move, basically looks like you have a standard point and shoot camera taped to your bike, or even a flash cellphone cam.

    I dont know why they even put a mic on that thing, it is simply unbearable to watch . I hope you have dropped you price to less than what they are new (80 bucks)

    not to bad since one camera was cable tied onto the engine and the other was double sided tape to the seat

    I would never put a camera that cost more anywhere nere these bikes (I have seen them compleatly destroyed) but both bieks crashed several times and not a scratch on the camera (it's small and can get out of the way) no problems with the card sliding out at all

    if you want to lend me a $500 camera I'll try that next meating for a comparison
    the sound is crap but you wont get much better with anything where they where mounted
    you try sticking your ear over a 2 stroke exaust
