Looks like a 'stretched' C90 step thru

I nearly had one of those as a spotty teenager but just about managed to stretch to a knackered Honda SS50 ! - really wanted a 'Fizzie' yamaha 50cc FS-1E but couldnt afford it

Nice work Matt.

Would you consider using an external camera mount of some sort?

Wow, works well Matt. Definitely need that at the Ring

Maybe... with a bullet cam and a roof mount on an E91?

You'd produce some cracking shots with that!

Perhaps for UK4?!

Looks like that worked out well mate, did you end up making or buying it?

mjh93sa · 07-23-2007, 05:26 PM

Bought it. I thought of getting something knocked up, but ran out of time before hols so just bought this, and to be honest it's rather good!

Linky? or was it shop bought, like the internet but real, with real people in it?

goto shop > product overview > Mounts for camcorders, cameras and bullet cameras > Fixed and roll cage mounts > Headrest mount[

Can't do a direct link as all the shop stuff is https.

It's £42-50, and they also do a double headrest mount version, but that's £89.

If you're mounting on the front seats then the seat needs to be occupied otherwise the backrest can vibrate over rough surfaces. I've not tried filming in this condition as I spotted the cammera bouncing around on the way up to the TT course and changed the mount over to my seat before starting the lap
