When significant movements are detected during road trips, an accident video will be saved separately to ensure that it will not be overwritten when the TF card is full. It’s worth keeping it away from the front of the bike of course, and away from rain; some users pop it under the seat, which will make the engine sound better thanks to less wind noise, but I figured it was more important that it could pick up speech if that were needed. In parking mode, the camera records a 1-minute video when a vibration is detected, such as when someone bumps into the motorcycle. Put this file under the root directory of the media to be used for updating and load the media into the system. You could save videos, take photos or perform a factory reset by simply pressing the Function Button on remote control, giving your full attention to riding to ensure personal safety.

Back Camera – multiple back mounting points are to be had on the F750GS particularly given the fitment of the BMW Adventure Pannier frame kit and the SW-Motech Adventure rack installed on top of the OE tubular luggage grid. The data display, the GPS inaccuracy (which can also cause danger), plus the media and downloading concerns are time consuming and inconvenient. Resolution settings for the front and rear cameras are 1080P at 30FPS or 720P at 60FPS (there are no individual settings for the front and rear cameras). WiFi is also built into the Thinkware M1 cam, allowing you to connect to the M1 remotely using your smartphone.The K3 features dual-core processing for substantial processing enhancements, a higher performance GPS receiver usable with multiple GNSS systems, an intelligent DC converter with voltage monitoring, form factor upgrades and, new remote control and external microphone components first seen on the K5 system. Front and back cameras provide a 120-degree Field of View (FoV) for excellent coverage albeit with some distortion evident depending on the depth of the view. Make sure the file or files copied over have the original download name and no other extensions appended like (1) or (2) if downloaded or copied multiple times.

Getting to know any system is good (read the manual, use the features), especially with a product like the INNOVV K3 with its dual-camera layout, always-on recording mode (unless otherwise changed), motion detection features, and other available settings. The remote control comes with a mounting bracket that – on many bikes – allows it to sit under the mirror stem.The brackets are designed in such a way that M6 screws are meant to fix into the bottom, but this limits how you can attach them and means you really need to use the L-shaped brackets. This elevated positioning is courtesy of a small unused electronics hobby box and (yep, you guessed it) 3M Dual Lock pieces secure the module to the top of a box and the box to the floor; easy access and easy repositioning as needed. I had my own M5 screw go through the bracket into the bike, but because there’s not much clearance for the camera unit, I had to file the top of the screw’s head off. The module and cameras therefore do not need to be mounted in a dry place, you can put them anywhere.

The Bottom Line – new for 2021, the INNOVV K3 Dash (Action) Cam is not just a replacement for the venerable K2 but a new product in its own right – building upon the proven K2 architecture while drawing from the upscale K5 resulting in a familiar form factor with more processing power, detail, and quality upgrades and new components for more functionality. They mention the setup is easy via the app, the installation videos are simple, and the comprehensive kit for installation is highly recommended.

Others however, are not happy with the wifi connection, saying that it is slow and there are small delays when transferring video files. The speed will usually been shown in every video and the location and driven route can be viewed on the App or the PC software of the specific brand. The new firmware should now be loaded; always verify this via the Settings/System section under the INNOVV App.

You can find all the dash-cams we’ve reviewed here and be sure to regularly check for the discounts available through BikeSocial membership. Perhaps it has a use as a great unit to prove you weren't speeding, but it's wildly inaccurate otherwise. Yes, you can use a GoPro or many other action cameras as a dash-cam, but you have to keep in mind that it might not be quite as reliable. Go to the desired storage folder under the App, select the target subfolder and the file; a pop-up screen with Play, Download, Delete or Cancel options appears. Now that the innovative INNOVV K5 4K UltraHD system is well and truly launched, the INNOVV K3 Dual Channel Action Cam system becomes the second in a series of (planned) releases reflecting a new design, performance standards, and quality approach.

With the BMW adapter piece fitted through the L-bracket, orient the module as desired and tighten the adapter up; then replace the mirror. This layout moves the camera closer to the motorcycle but also results in a BIG chunk of the field of view obscured by the headlight guard and beak – stable but not optimal visually.
