POV camera mounting positions

I hope it is not a double post, but I couldn't find anything here on good positions for POV camera mounting on the Multis.

I have a Drift HD170 and it came with a few different mounts, but I can't seem to find any nice places except the handlebar.

I guess one would be to get something to go onto the tank, but that is too stereotype.

Any suggestions?

Yes, mounting locations on the MTS12 for a good recording are limited. Does the Drift cam have a helmet mount (lower side of the helmet (or front chin) is best versus extreme top of helmet). If the Drift works with a good suction mount, can affix to one of the side panels. Just be sure to safety tie the mount in case a bump sends it flying!

I mount it on the dp crash bars and on a mirror mount I have. I use the same camera. Both are interesting views.

Thanks guys

I have a suction cup, but the radius is just to large to get any good grip on the side panels.
The helmet mount is one I used before, so that is also an option

Considering the swmotech bars and it could work. Not sure if it will pickup engine vibration there.

No vibration from my dp bars.
