Does anyone have a reccomendation for a camera mount?

I'm on kind of a tight budget so I've been looking at this one. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Camera-GPS-Radr-Mount-Triumph-Sprint-ST-RS-Speed-Triple_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trkparmsZ66Q3a4Q7c65Q3a1Q7c39Q3a1Q7c240Q3a1318QQ_trksidZp3286Q2ec0Q2em14QQhashZitem380084949834QQitemZ380084949834QQptZMotorcyclesQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

I've seen setups like that eBay one on several sites.  It's a great idea if you want a video camera mounted in a sturdy way on your tank.  Downside is that it would impede using a tank bag and odds are your camera won't be very adjustable once mounted.

RAM mounts are top-notch if you want the freedom of how to mount and position your gear.  They tend to be very sturdy, but I find with temp changes (colder) and sufficient vibration, your equipment can sag into a lower position over time.

A lot depends on what you plan to do with your equipment and which is better suited to the task.

I built this shelf for my R1200RT. (I hope the attach feature works) The camera mount is simply a 1/4-20 machine screw with a jam nut on it. I had to brace the rear of the platform because the video camera would bounce when I hit bumps in the road. The only problem I run into with it is the bugs seem to aim at the cameras lens.
