Got the handle bar mount as well as the sucion cup thingy, but the camera is shaking like Michael J Fox on crack. Any tips on how to minimize the shaking without having to resort to going back to an inline four?
GoPro, minimize shaking

#2my handle bar mount is good, does not shake, do u have it tight enough, i did put alittle bit of rubber foam around the handle bar then mounted the bracket, to see if it made much difference, alittle but not a lot
i would just check that it was all tight, the only difference is maybe i had the lcd screen attached which makes it weigh more

#3Not got that problem on mine, I've used the handle bar mount a lot without any extra padding and its been fine.
The stick on mounts have some movement in them where the camera clips in but a strip of electrical tape on the mount sorts that out.

#4the stick ons seem to have a bit of pre-curve to them and that can get flattened out when you stick them onto really flat surfaces...this gives a looser fit to the male clip and can cause rattling/vibes. Also if you have a bunch of those linked plastic joints making the camera very tall, it can predispose to excess shakes.
maybe try a small wrap of foam adhesive tape round the bars under the camera clamp to dampen some vibes?
