Here are some photos of how I attached an Oregon Scientific ATC2k. I found a spot on the helment that would point the camera forward in line with my eyesight then used 5-minute epoxy to to glue the supplied mount to the helment. Before gluing I used some fine grit sandpaper to rough up the surface of the helment and mount for a better bond. I used some masking tape over the mount to hold it in place while the epoxy cured.

The ATC mount allows you to rotate the camera in two directions so I now can move the camera view up or down plus rotate the barrel to get a level horizon. I try to aim slightly up but still capture some of the handlebar and front wheel action like Nobrakes talked about.

Also included are pics of a Ram Mount on the handlebar. It is a secure mount and have never had a problem with spills. The videos tend to have more bounce, blurr, and vibration effects.

Hope this helps....good luck....and post your vids!
