Here's what it looks like mounted to the chin bar aka "snout cam". Audio wasn't working for some reason.

I like the chest and chin mount ideas. The only problem with any helmet mount is the amount of camera movement that occurs with mirror checks, shoulder checks, etc on the street. Gives me a bit of a headache, but maybe it's just me.
I've had good success mounting the camera on an 18" aluminum tube (RAM) which was attached to a RAM mount on my mirror. It's good to get the bike in the shot. You can see the tube in the bottom of this photo
Same mount, facing forward:
This year, I'm going to fiddle around more with the chest mount.

thank you
Not to get all technical but it's not mounted directly to the axle. And I should have said "almost 100% impossible to do safely (for the camera)"
There's not enough space and too much travel.
The set up ^^^^ has helped overcome the issue. I may try it in time, but I've never succesfully mounted directly to a fork leg on 3 different sports bikes.
