Top-tier video, reliable evidence, but app struggles.

Innov K7 was a sweet spot for me - it has 2k to the front & rear (so usually you can read the plates of the cars), there is a electrical circuit connector available so it can turn on/off automatically with your key, colors are quite good, there is a mic that you can hide under your seat and the cameras are still quite smallish (compared to 4k dashcams). Working without issues on my motorcycle for the 2nd season now.
Innovv k7. Connect at battery, splice into tail light, and it wakes up when you turn on your key. Auto records. Loops. Can see plates a few car lengths away. Stores "events" separate from looped vids. Pull out the chip if you want to look at vids, or use the phone. Phone app needed for setup, but not after. The logo goes up on the cameras (nothing tells you that). I thought they went so you could read them on the side, but that just made the vids "wavy." I put my dvr in a box, along with rear cam. Front is on the forks. GPS under the seat. Pretty permanent though, so probably not switching cams between bikes. https://preview.redd.it/rpdo5o4sgpjf1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=0dcd45c2cc158d95ca69d17f46ab8d162e9319f3
I use an Innovv camera system. Always on, always running. If something happens, download the file(s). [https://innovv.com/products/innovv-k7-dashcam](https://innovv.com/products/innovv-k7-dashcam)
I have the Innovv K7 installed on my CB650R. Easy to install and starts recording front and rear as soon as I turn the key. Very happy with it.
INNOVV K7 - set it and forget it (but be at peace if something happens) I didn't even used the handlebar control, just let it do its thing... once in couple of months I download everything and format and go again :-)
The reason why car dashcams are further ahead is because there’s a bigger market for car dashcams I’d get the innov k7 — just installed one and it works great. Super easy to install and use.
Shakiness isn’t a problem. I off-road my bike and the clips climbing rocky hills or on dirt roads at 70mph are smooth as butter. I have INNOVV cams. Would recommend. And don’t fuck around with batteries what a pain in the ass!
