I found the cheapest ($45), yet decent HD video quality option is the infamous #16 key chain cam with 120deg lens.
Beware of imitations.

It's not as user friendly as some more expensive cams, but all options can be setup through a PC (including DVR mode).

Here's a sample vid I made in WV. For the front view, it was velcro'd to a simple bracket sitting above the left mirror. For the back view, similarly stuck onto the luggage plate.

(Yes, it is sped up 2X in an effort to convey the excitement of actually being there lol)

Yeah he did! We took an advanced sport riding course together. He started off a little slow not holding his line, but eventually I had trouble keeping up not wanting to be so aggressive. Shut the cam off when he got too far ahead, then a mile later I crossed paths with a deer. Was probably his loud pipes that woke it up!
