I see that Gateway Powersports in Peterborough area announced they are closing in Aug/26.    That tells me that they got "the letter" from BRP saying that their dealer agreement is not being renewed.       More dealers closing than opening thats for sure.   

The benefit of the different views and when you create/edit your footage, you can mix it up with different views for either short periods or long period of the clip. I always liked the rear mount clip of the following sled coming up on you, the scenery from the back, etc... Variety is nice when putting the clip together.

Never understood the hood mount facing the rider view - it's cool to see for about 10 seconds, then after that it's who cares. The scenery......that's what people want to see. 

Have not used mine in years, but had it on the helmet, usually left side so lower percentage of hitting branch’s, front bumper looking either ahead or back at rider, side of sled and rear bumper looking back.   

These Chinmounts are very popular
