Anyone running a hardwired front & rear dash cam on their motorcycle? Is it actually worth it?
I’ve been riding a lot more lately, mostly commuting during the week with some longer weekend rides, and after a couple close calls in traffic I started thinking about having some kind of dash cam on the bike.
Helmet cams and action cams seem popular, but I know myself well enough to admit I’d probably forget to charge them or even turn them on half the time, so I’ve been looking into hardwired front and rear camera setups that just stay on the bike.
I went down the usual rabbit hole and came across systems like the INNOVV K7 along with a few others, and on paper they sound great, especially the idea of continuous recording and parking or motion detection when the bike is parked.
That said, it’s hard to tell what’s actually useful in real life versus just extra features that don’t matter day to day.
For those of you who’ve been running a wired front and rear motorcycle dash cam for a while, did it end up being worth the install?
Does parking mode actually catch anything meaningful, or is it more of a gimmick?
Any downsides or things you wish you’d known before wiring one in?
Just looking for real-world experiences before I commit to it.
