    Do you use one? Which make/model do you have and would you recommend it?

    Thanks for that Bikerman. I've also been looking for a reasonably priced good helmet camera, there's so many to choose from now.

    I put a Roadhawk ride on my bike too. Just put it on and forget about it.

    I have a Drift Ghost X fitted to the side of my helmet using the curved adhesive mounting supplied in the box. Excellent quality video playback on computer or iPhone but on the X no playback on the camera itself. Bought the waterproof cover after reading reviews that scorned the “showerproof” claim. Don’t notice it’s there when riding, real battery life on the go about 6 hours. One aspect not well described is that footage is stored on the memory card ( you buy separately) in 20 min blocks so at the end of a long ride you’ve lots of videos! Editing & adding music not too difficult once you’ve practiced a few times. Use it in the van/car as a dash cam too. I would recommend one.

    I fitted an Innov K2 with front and rear cameras, works well and is discreet.

    What he said. Also the front lens is rotatable so you can level the picture. I also have fixed a Gopro chin mount and sometimes use a cheapo gopro camera, however battery life is nowhere as good as ghost

    I do apologise! I remember looking through the posts earlier and the screen flashed/updated and I though nothing of it. I think though I may have inadvertently pressed the "disagree" button! Sorry...fat fingers, tiny keyboard. :dizzy::dizzy:


    I have no opinion on cameras at the moment.

    All undone now. :rolleyes:
