    Default Escort 8500 X50 and Camera on my GSXR

    Well i got these pics in the introduction forum but I thought they could be here too.

    1992 GSXR 750
    Escort Passport 8500 X50
    Sony HC40 Handycam

    The mounts are made from 1" x 1" x 1/16" aluminum angle and 1/8" x 1/4" aluminum rivets.

    The radar detector is mounted with velcro (well it's 3M hook and tape 2" x 3").

    The camera mount is mounted to the tank with 3M Dual Lock, it's like velcro only WAY stronger and without the wiggle.

    Very nice set-up indeed...


    Can't wait to see some videos (post them in our videos section of the forum).

    Nice install! Do you have enough room to crouch down when you are going 100+?

    Not with the camera. I can only crouch about 75% when it is mounted. It sucks but that, I really think, is the best compromise as far as where to mount the camera.
