Of course, Bro! I have it set up to mount on my tail so you can just use my bike if you want or I'll bring the extra sticky pads with me if you are uncomfortable with using my bike.

Yea,if you go to http://www.goprocamera.com/index.php...2&productid=18 You can order a bunch of mounts. I think I saw them cheaper somewhere else but I'm not sure... if you get this kit, you can put mounts anywhere you want on your bike. You should prep the surface and let the tape set-up a few hours before you mount the camera anyway. Try and place them in spots where we can tie off the tether to something solid just in case. The tether is about 1' long fyi. If I find that kit cheaper, I'll let you know.

If you put it on the back like that. there should be a good place to tie it off under the seat.

As far as riding on the street... I generally watch the vanishing point of the curve. The really conservative riders recommend that if you can't safely stop (within your lane) between the point where you are and the vanishing point of the corner.. you're going too fast (for street purposes).

If you want to work on your lines... take it to a track. Seriously. THEN take what you learn from the track, back the speed down a few notches (performance awards from the local police department are not really something you WANT to get), and have fun. But the BEST place to learn these things is at a track with qualified instructors.. controlled environment, EMS readily available, etc., ad nauseum.

Just my 2 cents...
