Great low-light, mic integration; watch out for lens flare.

Second this, I get 3 hours+ from my Drift XL pro, and in a pinch you can plug it into a USB powerbank and charge whilst you film. And yes, the mic is appalling. It's fine when you aren't riding, but anything above 20mph and it's unusable audio.
That's asking a lot for battery power, you might be better off with some cameras wired into bike power, rather than a self contained unit. I use a Drift XL Pro, and it's got a pretty good battery life, but on max settings it only gets about 4 hours, I doubt it would get to 6 on any reasonable quality. It does allow charging whilst recording though, which is what I've done on long rides (but it loses weatherproofing when charging).
I find the Drift XL Pro is pretty good. You can capture licence plates pretty well with it.
You're probably looking at either a drift ghost xl or xl pro. I just hope their quality has come up. I had two drift cameras around 2014ish and they had some issues.

I use this one as well and I'd recommend it. If you're recording to use the footage in vlogs or something like that then the quality isn't going to be good enough but for a dash cam it's perfect. Really good battery life.
Drift ghost pro xl. Battery life is pretty good lasting 6-10 hours depending on setting. I get roughly 8 but hard to say as i charge my helmet and camera when my helmet low battery.
I can say the drift XL pro served me well with a battery life of 4-6 hours. Loop recording or normal if you have a large SD card. Only let down is the stabilisation is terrible on this thing, better left off so you get the full fov. I now use a DJI action 5 with three batteries each lasting around 2-3 hours each. In the charging case you can charge 3 simultaneously which is handy when on my move. The stabilisation is much better compared to the drift pro, however as with most action cameras you Need to consider the mounting options.

Films in 2.7k & 4k as well as 1080p all at 60fps or less if needed. Long battery life that’ll last a days ride
