Hero2 does have motorsports edition. But Hero3 was just released so you have more options.

i was able to do a side mount on my helmet using what came with my sport addition.

Personally, I would also recommend the Wi-Fi system to turn the camera on and off. If you have a cigarette lighter, a charger that plugs in to it and then the Wi-Fi would enable you to keep the Wi-Fi on indefinately. When you are not filming, you can turn the Hero off with the Remote to preserve the Battery. If you plan to fim more than about 2 hours, a skeleton case for the Hero and a charger hooked up to the Hero, along with extra SD Memory would be called for.

They have a handle bar mount and chest strap. I've used the chest strap which worked fine.

I saw recommendations for the suction cup mount but be very careful where you put it on the bike and make sure to tether it to either yourself or the bike somehow. I lost a brand new hero2 on my first ride out using the suction cup mount so I don't trust it on a motorcycle, but I've seen it on others. Your call. But like I said, tether system is HIGHLY recommended.

The $130 version (whatever that is) comes with everything you'll need regardless of the housing you are going to use. There's an adapter.Tip: make sure the 3.1 is TIGHT on the GoPro. I was scared to crack the lense and had it pop off once. I got it back and cranked it down. No problems after that.

This type of camera package came with attachments for the bike, car or cap . . . It isn't design for ur ear, u need to purchase the 1 that's made for the ear.

If you want it just for video then just get the S110. The video does a lot of hunting trying to focus. plus you can hear the motor hunting in the video.

I have a headband and its kind of a pain to start stop and take pictures between videos. So I would go with a chest harness mount or rig something up on one of your backpack straps

Any thing that'll fit. Bad idea though not made to shoot stuff. It's just a noise maker.

It should work just fine. Bear in mind that the camera will be upside down. You may have to stand on your head to watch the resulting videos! LOL! Have fun!

Only the flash card, which shouldn't be a problem. Generally a pretty good camcorder. The other thing you need to be aware of is that the "accessory shoe" slot is JVC "only". It is some proprietary size that does not accept normal shoe accessories like a light or microphone. (JVC makes it's own shotgun for this camcorder, but no light.) Generally very good quality imaging and a huge advantage of an external mic input and headphones for semi-professional use. I'd love to see it record in plain MPEG4 instead of the AVCHD or iFrame wrappers, but the can be decoded by most nonlinear edit systems. Also be aware it has it's own proprietary charger. It does not accept USB charges like most small camcorders. Pretty good battery life though. Hope this helps.

PS, Get a good tripod and a strong mount. The camera and lens are a hefty duo.

Hard to say - it depends on what you want to use it for.. .I got the suction cup mount so I could mount it to the exterior of my car for action video... as well as a tripod mount... looking at getting the microphone adapter and a good external mic as well... . Also, get a good class 10 micro SD card.. .16-32gb for sure.

basically any external microphone will work. The camera has a 3.5mm input, so the mic will either need that input or for it to be converted.

Please do not buy this article. Any other camera will do a better video. It didn't last one say. You don't need anything else anyway. Everything is included

It has no internal power...so I guess if it's worth it to rig a 12 volt external power pack and a goofy helmet with a special mount for it or....just get a GoPro or other portable unit. That's what I use.

Hi, I think what you will need is a DVD-R for your cam! The cd-r won't hold the visuals on it, strictly audio:)

A tripod...hmmm....that's for the camera. Instead, use a light stand with a hot shoe adapter to mount.
