Moto-Cam?
A product from http://www.pointofviewcameras.com/

Gaurav Jani has inspired me to risk a 30k handy cam on my trip to HP this year. I want to try and make a video travellogue on this trip. First things first though. Which means i'm going to try and spend some time in front of the camera to get comfortable.

Fabricating the mount is going to be a nice little challenge. There won't be roads for at least the first half of the ride from Chamba till Keylong via Killar/Chery. The weather, given the kind of news thats pouring in, is going to be wet and wild.
Guess the requirements for the mount would be:
1. Sturdy and fixes firmly to the bike. Most likely on the handle bar.
2. Removable so that it can be dismounted it once back in the city.
3. If possible, adjustable in width & length to accomodate different sizes.
4. Mounting similar to the a tripod so that the camera can be screwed on top and removed. Remember, its the nut that needs to rotate cause the camera can't in the mount. :p
5. Rubber sides to absorb the vibrations and keep the picture from shaking too much.
6. Should allow me to open the screen and view the recording without having to take it out.
Hmmmm...let me think some more.
