$49 helmetcam

I've been wanting a helmet cam for ages now, but didn't want to pay
the $160 to $200 to get one. Last week Kim, was at Fry's Electronics
and saw a bulletcam which stated it could be used for "security or
helmet use".
"Ding, a little light goes on in my head"
The Bulletcam set provides:
380 lines resolution
Color Image Sensor
Built in Microphone
Mounting kit (wrong type for helmet) but can be changed
Battery connector
Cables
Price $69 ... with a $20 rebate. I have tried the cam out and the
picture looks pretty good. I'll be trying the system out in the near
future attached to my helmet when I get the correct mounting plate.

Great idea, and I was just at Fry's to pickup a new flat screen. I just
always assumed that helmet cams where well into the mid $100s and so I was
waiting for a lower cost solution as time went by..
Guess I'm going back across town in a few days to get one. 380 lines of res
in color is aok for helmet camming I figure.
Anyone have video to sample?
Oh, and a pic or two of mounting solutions?

tank bag: is the cheap one ok???

I've seen one of the Kawi KLR knock-off tank bags fail at the
plastic clips that hook on the tank. I've got the Kawi KLR bag - I
think I paid $59 or $69 for it - it's still going strong. One
complaint - besides size - when it's fully loaded, it tends to sag
back into your lap. Take a bungie cord and loop it around the back
end of the bag and attach each end to the front of the tank -
pulling it back into an upright position.
