For tons of pictures of mounting locations please go HERE!...(Thank you Pashnit Moto for putting together this awesome resource page!)
I've been asked several times about how & where to mount the GoPro camera on the FJR for filming our rides. Many have asked for pictures and locations. I know some other members have posted some pictures but I wanted to expand upon what has already been posted. I'll just refer folks to this thread from now on about mounting options.
I was gonna take some pictures of my mounting locations but I came across a site that has already done the work for me by the fine folks at Pashnit Moto out of CA.
The Suction Cup Mount is your friend! Stop being scared to use it! I've used it for 2years and no I've never had the camera fall off yet. This mount is a high performance motosports mount specifically designed for external use on motorcycles, snowmobiles, cars, trucks or anything that has a flat clean surface and moves really fast. It has a suction lock design for high speeds and like any suction mount the surface just needs to be flat and clean is all.

See the suction cup mounted GoPro camera on the lower left side front fairing of my bike in the picture below?
This is the perspective from the camera in a hard left curve from this mount location.
Also you can't go wrong with the helmet mount option for that first person perspective. You should have gotten a couple flat adhesive mounting bases as well as a couple curved mounting bases with your GoPro kit. The curved one is specifically for the contour of the top or side of your helmet.

This is the riding perspective of the camera mounted on the top of your helmet.
Your only limited to the amount of locations & camera angles by your own creativity!
This isn't rocket science. Get out there and test different locations and have fun with it!....(I hope this helps)
