Advice: Safely rigging POV on a motorcycle

[Tom Van]

Hey guys,

Wondering if anyone here has safely rigged an Epic onto a motorcycle. The director has assured me he's done it in past shoots with just sandbags and tie-downs but I have my concerns. Admittedly I'm not very knowledgable on what parts of the bike is safe to use tie downs on so I'm looking for any advice I can find in this area.

Is this any inspiration? You should talk to Leo Bund at Flythroughfilms.com

If it´s a fixed camera on the bike looking forward it works quite well to use one of this bag fixtures that are used to strap bags onto the tank, then sandbag and strap the camera onto that. Or you fix the camera onto the drivers chest or helmut.
