Bit of video from the Ridge

There's some stuff

9. Cameras may be mounted on motorcycles subject to the
following conditions:
a. Cameras must be secured to the motorcycle with
safety wire and/or a positive tether in addition to the
mount. All cameras must be present at tech
inspection and must have approved tech sticker in
place before entering track. Any camera that
becomes detached from a motorcycle while on the
track may not be re-installed for the remainder of the
event.
b. Cameras must be mounted within the body envelope
of the motorcycle and cannot be positioned where
they can be struck by a passing machine. Cameras
must not obscure any portion of the number plates.
Video cameras mounted to the top of the tail are
acceptable provided they do not obscure number
plates. If unsure of suitable mounting positions,
check with WMRRA tech for clarity and approval.
c. Cameras cannot be attached to the rider in any way.
This includes, but is not limited to the chest, back or
helmet.
d. Rider’s name and competition number must be
clearly indicated on the camera and external case.

Looks pretty smooth in the video. Like you knew what you were doing.

Kinda crazy camera rules for sure. Did they get you on safety wiring exhaust stuff too?

Those would be the camera rules. No cams on the tail section or the swingarm. Pretty much in th cockpit only.

And Jon, I didn't get any hassle about the exhaust. I normally run safety wire on the hanger bolt for that reason, but have a different bolt in as of our last round that is't wired... no discussion at tech.

The safety wire thing on the go pros is something the AMA brought in two seasons ago, it isn't really a bad idea.

Safety wire isn't a big deal. Many trackday organizers require it in the US as well. The location made for less than ideal options however.
