I've never used one myself,but my local Kawie dealer can't keep them in stock....they sell the GoPro for $275ish.
Excuse me, ma'am...but you've got extremely nice legs!!!...what time do they open???                                                                                                               https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8tCgN3aryQ

If you're not looking to spend an arm on a GoPro, Google search helmet cams then type the brand name and model in youtube. There should be commercials and people reviewing them in videos to give you an idea how good they really work. I've been looking for months but have recently decided to get a GoPro HD. There are some decent cams out there that are cheaper but I'm sure as the saying goes "you get what you pay for"
It's hard to keep a drivers license riding a 2 stroke dirt bike on the street.  If you drive within the law they are VERY boring.

contour gps very good bug free camera,excellent picture quality ,goggle strap or mount on your helmet ,easy to turn on/off when on your helmet very good after purchase backup from contour , need to be a bit "tecky" if you want to put on youtube (still havnt got me and my son on yet!)  i would buy one again if i was looking for a helmet cam.

I dont own one myself but if you "watch" much youtube riding the gopro always has better footage.
if I only had a pair, I could actually ride this thing
