This is the best i can come up with at the moment. The velcro strap is too long (meant for a wrist) hence why I've had to wrap it over the face of the remote. I can still push the strap (as the button is located directly behind it).

Why not replace the strap with zipties, easier access to all buttons.
Don't stop me now, I'm having such a good time!!

I used to put a split ring through the steel 'key', take the LH mirror off and thread it through the ring before replacing the mirror. If you want it an inch or so up the stalk then hold the split ring in place with a cable tie.

You can get a mount for the remote that clips in to GoPro Mounts. Mine is mounted on my handlebars.
