That's easy. I just mut my gopro or camera on the ground and hit record, then I get on my bike. I'd better use the gopro with this weather (need something waterproof).

Main reason I do it like this is cause the side stand is a little to far forward making it harder for me to reach.

At high speeds mine doesn't do that. 120 with 3 cases is rock solid, 135mph is also solid (haven't taken it over that speed). But around 50 to 60 mph it can occur.
