I bought the complete system from Helmetcamera.com including the small recording device. It works great! I don't have any vids posted but I can assure you they are quality. I've used the camera on top of my helmet with the supplied velcro and I've already mounted it to my former track bike with the camera sticking through the nose of the bike. You can also place the microphone anywhere you want to get the best wind protection and sound from the motor. I personally hate when videos have music with them, I wanna' hear the friggen' motor!!!

The biggest thing you need to do is make sure your angle is correct. The first time I used the camera on my helmet it was pointing too far down. Just one of those things you have to learn from experience.

Depending on how long you are recording at one time you may want to get a second memory card (if you buy this system). I think I bought mine for under $100 or so at Best Buy when I was in a pinch and couldn't wait for delivery.

It's great to go back and look at the videos of rides gone by. Especially if you catch a special road and/or moment while you're recording. Go for it!
