Ram mounts (or similar)are probably the best for the Gopro,Ive got one which i use on the handlebar and on the engine bars which give quite good road footage,theres also the sticky pads available most use them on their helmets but you can stick them on your panels(make sure there 3M ones and tether them for security) I've had Hero 7,4 and the Session on mine which some might think is extreme but if you can edit it right it makes decent footage.(Also on the bellypan of my old Diavel)

If you get a RAM clamp mount, a socket arm (various sizes) and a ball with Go Pro adapter you can mount the camera at various locations and it can be removed and moved around. Handlebars, engine guards, grab rails - pretty much anything with a bar or a surface you can clamp onto.

RAP-B-400U (small clamp)
RAP-B-202U-GOP1 (GoPro ball  for RAM)RAP-B-201U-A (short arm),also various other size arms available
