They don’t listen that well. I’ve been trying for a year to get them to put explanations of settings IN THE SOFTWARE…..it’s a great camera but crap software that leaves users wondering how to use it or set it up so you don’t get 200 accident videos from a 30 minute ride. Yes….adjust the settings, but then what setting affects what? If I lower the sensitivity does that adjust parking sensor or riding or both…..crap software.

Open local tip... 8.24 minutes in, you go past the Kings head in Boxley... Damn fine pub with good food and a good pub garden.

I'm an embedded software/hardware engineer. I understand the claim about 4K being bandwidth intensive but there are video transports that fix that problem. I wonder why they don't know about them? That massive bundle of wires going to the front camera is a deal breaker for me. Good review, good data showing what it's capable of. Hope they can address the bundle of wire some of us have...

When you mention location of the unit early on in the video and being unable to access the door for the memory card, you could always mount it upside down in that location and flip the video (that you mention later).

Mate, thanks for taking the time to make the video. I'm contemplating getting a dash cam for my Indian Springfield as security with all the 'bad' motorist on the road. Thye video was great and I'm now going to watch your instilation video for the Inov K5. Thanks again, much appreciated. Oh, and a BIG thumbs up.

I had the same problem with the front camera with moisture in the air so I made a small wind deflecter a meniture version of my motorcycle windshield, installed it just below and forward of the camera lens, here in the Arizona USA desert due to long times of infrequent rain our highways get oily the miniature windshield blows the oily moisture up and over the camera lens!

Great review. I've been looking for good quality camera's for my bike that I don't have to mount to my nice new carbon helmet. I think I'm going to go for this kit. I also noticed you are actually riding roads I ride all the time too! What a small world 😂

Great review, Thanks Bruce. Think I’ll hang on for the K3, seems to have the best of both worlds if you don’t mind the lesser resolution.

Thank you for the good review. I’m very impressed with the K5 , I will wait and see the K3 when available.

Hi Bruce ... on a grotty day like that, hard to draw a comparison. Under the circumstances, to me GoPro looks a much better picture but I think that is because the lens of the Innovv must be dirty or something. Even the rear camera looks a better picture. I think it would be much better to compare when they are all clean and clear on a brighter day. I do think the audio is much better than the GoPro tho.

That’s very true bud, but sadly we can’t compete with Mother Nature. It was January and I had less than a week to get it installed, tested, filmed, edited and out for today 🤷‍♂️ The GoPro will ALWAYS win in terms of picture quality, the INNOVV system can’t compete with that - but they are totally different cameras. INNOVV don’t do action cameras, they are dash cam type systems so serve a different purpose. The GoPro is an action camera which we adapt to use as a helmet/bike mounted camera, but it requires faff to keep it powered constantly etc etc. The INNOVV systems are simply install and forget, they run constantly in the background predominantly for that unique occurrence of an incident etc

Good review. I bought a K2 the day before the K5 was announced (a couple of weeks ago) but I do prefer the more discrete front camera of the K2. I have installed it but not been out yet and I am very impressed with the build quality. It also appears I got the latest transformer but the download speed is slow when I tested it.

The first few minutes wasn't a fair test on it, as it was wet on the lense. But as soon as it dried the quality came threw.. Its pretty impressive.. I use a go pro myself and I wouldn't change over from it just for reasons I want the helmet mount.. But its a great bit of gear regardless, great quality, sound was good a bit crisp, but good, GPS is good also, looked accurate. Pretty professional set up being honest..it works great in low light 2... Only reason I wouldn't change from go pro as I say I enjoy the helmet view.... Its a perfect set up for a bike like yours and all other all out touring bike id certainly use 1 then 👍

Very nice to see that the feedback has been listened too and that it has been taken up. As the K2 it looks very good quality. Front unit looks bulky, reducing where it can be mounted unfortunately, not as discrete. Audio is very good, if only it could be updated on the K2. I must admit I do like the remote and the option to take pictures when needed. WiFi connection certainly seems a lot quicker. The night time video better than the K2. I like it very much, not sure I would rush to change from the K2, might be interested if they did a part exchange. Will possibly have to wait for the K3. Thanks for the insight. Good review mate.

I'd be quite Interested in the K3 when it drops if I can afford it. Like the sound of the built in external mic, seems quite handy

Nice one mate... up the Chelsea!

Front camera is really soft, regardless of the dirt on the lens. The rear provides a much clearer image. Resolution is not everything.

Looking forward to getting my k5 and c2 even more now. I'm not too concerned about the k5 dvr/camera size, it's not much bigger than the knockoff gopro I've been trying to use.

Fantastic review. Great structure to the film, everything flowed nicely. Agree re the sound. It was alot crisper, but a bit tinny. Not so keen on the bulky front camera and very interested in that half way house of the K3.

Nice video, but I think it was a bit unfair to compare with the K5 mounted low in the wet, filming a lot of pavement, and the GoPro up high in the drier. I wanted to have the cameras as high as possible, but "invisible", protected and with an unobstructed view. Sounds hard, but I actually think I nailed it. My front camera is where you have your remote. I wanted it on this side as we drive on the right, and I figured I will hardly ever need access to the card. Found a longer M6 bolt and mounted it there with the included angle bracket. Then drilled and carved a hole through the black plastic for the lens. (That plastic fairing is only €50 on a 1250GSA.) I mounted the remote on the mirror stem, using the included mount. The rear camera sits in the middle of the reflex, stole this idea from A Bike Thing. Let me know if you want to see pics of the installation, and I'll link to my blog. Snow and cold here in Norway now, so still waiting for warmer weather to test, but I think both cameras should have clear good views.

Nice Ruroc lid

Bit late to the party but as you've tried both the K3 & K5 I'd value your opinion. I've no interest in vlogging or uploading video to FB. But after having myself and my Mille wiped out by Miss Myopic, my gopro with a dead battery and having to rely on witnesses for the insurance I need a dashcam. So the question is, is the K5 worth the extra for my purposes over the K3? I don't think front camera size is an issue fitting it to my R1100S. Great video, enjoyed all the innovv vids.

Great informative video Bruce (at least the singing is only in the outtakes now), looks like a great system, good clear picture, excellent sound (better than the GoPro IMO), the app looks good as well. Seems like a winner to me, shame I've got no room under the seat to fit the electronics.

Looks very good, and the sound is a huge improvement! Even under the seat it sounded great! Thanks for the review Bruce you have certainly answered all the questions I had. :-) The App looks much better too. My K2 GPS was iffy, so looks like they also sorted that!

thank you for this, Now that i daily my bike ive been wanting something hard wired in, and these look good.

Thanks for the review, good to see the next generation here. I preferred the sound of the K5 as it seemed clearer than the GoPro. The picture quality improved when you got onto the dual carriageway, but did you clean the lenses before joining it? It would be good to see it in higher frequency comparisons with the GoPro especially for dashcam type footage. I bought a C5 for training sessions but it hasn’t been too successful. The K5 looks like it might be worth going with but would choose this over a GoPro? When using the remote to capture video, does it record the current time clip or from the push of the button or even record from a period back before the button push? You mentioned image stabilisation but I haven’t seen anything in the spec that says about this! Is there any? Lots of questions I know and probably better asked of Steve but your thoughts/input would be appreciated👍 Cheers and keep up the good work.

I clean the lenses every time I’m off the bike - basically I clean my visor, GoPro’s and Innovv cameras all at the same time. Yes I’d just cleaned the lenses prior to the dual carriageway footage, but the rain had also cleared away and I was moving faster, so the flowing air helps to keep the front lens clearer. Not sure what you mean by ‘higher frequency comparisons’ bud? The innovv was filming at its optimum resolution of 4K at the front at 30fps, I could’ve gone to 1080 at 60fps admittedly. There is no inbuilt stabilisation on the INNOVVs but personally I don’t think they need them 👍

Really good, well balanced video Bruce. Any chance they can get you the ‘cheap’ helmet mounted option? It looks like a simpler and cheaper way of getting the looped option that a GoPro simply can’t do... Your reviews are excellent and I would like to see what you make of it, cheers

I am thinking of maybe going for the K3 as although all 3 of my cameras (Well 2 now, not counting the Sena 10c Pro on my helmet) do 4K but have found that 4K files are large and are a bugger to edit, how often do you use 4K in your blogs?🤔

You'd better watch out that whenever your speedo goes all blurry from your GoPro (hate it when that happens,..ahem..cough) that your video in the INNOV still displays your speed in the bottom corner. The audio was markedly better for both in helmet and on bike IMO. I think the location you have it atm is probably why there is so much weather interference in the video (dirt on lens etc). Your GoPro is way up higher and out of the way of the front wheel to be getting dirt as much. Maybe if it was possible to fit the INNOV higher up and further away from the dirt? Overall, very impressed! The only other thing I'd say is when the camera is fitted where you have it atm it's not great for Vlogging (due to the bodywork appearing in shot 100% of the time) but if it's ONLY for a dashcam, then fine.

Thumb screws is not a good option either. Anyone can steal your card if you leave the bike.... I love the quality at night, and global quality in general, could be usefull to have just a tiny bit of stabilization, to eliminate the vibrations, but ofc, that would increase the price tag. The main thing stopping me from buying one, is the cabling. I have a BMW RT think this would be a lot of work, which is something for now all recording cameras have. On the alarm mode, maybe Innovv made it better, but I have seen some car dashcams flatting car batteries, so be aware of that if you dont put your bike on a tandem frequently.

Screws, put waterproof tape over the heads ov the screws neatly then push the driver thro the tape The screws should now be retained, down side you have to undo the screws evenly

The singing at the end, must do more random things like that at the end of your videos. The internal Mike sounds better than the go pro but the colour is a lot duller compared to go pro but that might be to position of the camera. Like the idea of upgrading to k5 from k2, but for me it's the add on Micror,gps,wifi and all the extra functions and remote are interesting to me but the 4k does not interest me at all.

Hi Pete, My Mac opens the files up no problem in finder? Are you recording in mp4 or the other format - think it’s TS? I use Final Cut Pro to edit

@@teapotone Thanks for getting back to me teapot one. I have recorded in MP4 and opening in finder is ok with the rear but the front is jittery. Im guessing its my 2012 Mac's onboard graphics memory . I've been looking at running dashcam viewer software to give me all the gps location speed data but, again its not able to run. I like the idea of final cut pro but, am thinking i may be in need of a machine to run the big file sizes used by the front camera on the K5. Looking forward to being able to roll the wheels legitimately soon. until then stay safe and thank you
