That was a good deal for sure. Anyone looking to buy one of these on Ebay just make sure you read carefully. A lot of the cameras up for bid are lower priced because they don't include the mounting brackets you get when ordering from GoPro directly. Lack of mounting hardware accounts for the price.

I tested out two different camera setups on my last trip.
One is a 20$ tank mount I bought at ebay which is very good, you see revs, speed through the screen and you hear the engine nicely and not much wind noise at all.
Then I took a RAM mount, used the U-Bolt on my frame slider and put on the RAM ball screw on the camera, this is my favorite mount for the track, as you get low, you see the forks working hard and well I like it. The tank mount is fine on trips as it is easy to operate on and off.
Anyway here is a video covering this, pardon the quality as I dual compressed the file... Also the start of the movie clip is tank mount, then a bit handheld from action in a hilltribe, but with patience you get a little more tank mount then the frame slider mount from a race track.

Yea I couldn't pass that deal up. I've been looking and bidding on them, but keep losing. This one was priced below what I was bidding with Buy it Now. It's in the next state over, so I should have it in a couple days.

anyone got a helmet mounted vid?
You can helmet mount this one if you like. There is a set of stick mounts that come with the camera, about 6 so. Find the right contour and stick it on. Then the camera clips into it. Very cool.
