Gopro mount

So I don't like two sided tape on my bike. What do you do for a gopro mount??? I made my own. What do you think? If there is interest, I am thinking about becoming a vender on here and selling them. Might do another for the front fender. Any other ideas? Throw them at me

Looks nice but I've found mounting it there is too far back. Even leaning into it just a bit touches the camera.
I use the suction cup as far forward on tank as I can. This allows me to still get a full tuck.
The 3m pads work great and if you need to remove them a hair dryer helps. Warming them up softens the glue and they come right off.
 
I like the Techmount steering stem mount. This is with a 3" extension included which I find completely unnecessary.

The only thing negative I can say is that it got stuck in my ZX-14s steering stem when I pushed it down all the way. Also sprayed with silicone but I think that actually made the orings swell. Only way to get it out is remove the front fender and wheel and tap a dowel with hammer from below.

Great workmanship! That mount looks great, but I agree with some of the othe comments about being too far back on the tank, and on my bike with a smoked screen, it wouldn't work well.

I think Jones' suggestion of mounting to the mirror is a good one. Could you make a plate that is 1/4" thick that would fit between the mirror and its mounting location, with an extension forward of the mirror to which the GoPro could be mounted? Something I would definitely buy (well assuming it didn't cost more than the camera).
