That's only going to introduce more shake, you want to keep the camera as close to the bikes frame as you can.
Exactly.
Now if you could figure a way to mount say a steady cam mount, and have it counter-weighted so it would stay in its position without translating the vibration, you could. Though if you were inventive enough, you could make a plate mount with an adjustable counter weight suspended by bungee type cords. This would isolate the camera from all vibrations, and keep it stable on most bumps, except for the worst.
