Innovv K5 Motorcycle Dash Cam Any Good? || Test & Review

[@TURBOTWINKIE]

Just wanted to let you all know at 6:45 I meant to put 400% not 200% !! Enjoy the vid :)

[@robertlee8042]

400% is five times because 100% is two times.

[@941hockey]

You seriously have some of the best motorcycle videos I’ve ever come across. Keep up the nice work!

[@TURBOTWINKIE]

Thank you, that means a lot :)

[@SparkyHelper]

How are we suppose to see the 4k difference when your video is only in FHD.

[@063317Art]

Way too many wires coming out of the DVR as it should be located at separate with one wire to he front camera and one to the back camera

[@pcat1378]

You cannot do that and still get 4k. This is why this is 4k front and 1080p rear....

[@mikesloper7112]

A little late to the party but I wanted to thank you for your time & sharing your experiences with the K5.. I'm not sure that two years down the road there is another 4K cam set for two (or 3) wheels. There's a big clue there now my spine has seen much better days & a return to 2 wheels is an absolute impossibility. The main (only) issue I can see with the K5 is hiding all the cables coming out the back of the front camera without having to heavily drill & modify the body work around the instrument cluster on the can-am spyder that fingers crossed will arrive in a week or two. The last 6 months has been the longest ever since signing the dotted line.. Again, thank you for your insight into the K5 but unless a miracle happens & I can find a sympathetic answer to the spyder bodywork I will probably go with what I think is the second best option, the M1 from Thinkware that in comparison is relatively easy hiding the single cable to both front & rear camera's. If you have any idea's / suggestions do please share those too with me. Wishing you health & happiness Sir, Mike S

[@gurbetilmaz]

Thank you very much, most of the installation videos doesnt show about the yellow cable. You saved my day today.

[@kymmoulds]

Hey, thanks for taking the time to make this review it is very very good and informative. Cheers and a BIG thumbs up.

[@marcusgeorge1825]

An awesome review! Thank you. I don’t like riding with several attachments to the outside of my helmet. For two main reasons. The extra drag and wind noise ant the potential to lessen the overall safety the helmet was intended to provide! 👍😎🇦🇺

[@TURBOTWINKIE]

It's definitely nice since you dont have to charge it either, always connected to the power. Thanks for comment :)

[@serious_in_seattle6917]

I want one to capture collisions. I’ve had one in my car for about four years and it has been valuable in clearly showing the other driver at fault on two occasions. One of those incidents the truck driver fled the scene too. I had the footage and the State patrol officer complimented me for having a dash cam. It made his job easier and used it in court. On a motorcycle, people pull out in front of the biker or make left turns failing to yield. They also rear end bikers. Sometimes they flee the scene and I want reliable proof. I will be getting one of these soon. Thanks for the video.

[@josuel7309]

I've decided on the K3 over this one for my first bike but this review is seriously awesome to watch. I love your presentation and delivery, excellent work!

[@andrewoxner2941]

Could you reupload in 4k? its hard to get a true sense of it when its down scaled to 1080p.

[@pappaclutch3266]

I was going between the K7 and the X4 insta 360. I choose this right now due to the fact it’s always powered by the motorcycle, always on when the bikes on, always with the bike and rewrites automatically over the oldest footage. I got this K7 with safety and legality in mind first and like you said I’ll get the X4 later for content creation. Ride on! 😎🤘

[@Trotils]

I’m using INNOVV k1 and it is great thing. Downside for k1 is connectors that sometimes make system fail on bumpy roads. I recently recorded horrible crash and k1 replay it perfectly. I hope that they have solved k1 problems on k5 version and I hope that no one will have to experience what I had.

[@theprodigal7143]

Hi, can you use the front cam as rear cam alone, without using the rear camera? I'm gonna use my go pro for front.

[@dlcarburetor]

This video pushed me to subscribe. I was looking at this camera to put on my ST1300. I may just pull the trigger thanks to this great review. I also am thinking about trying to get a MT10 in the next 6 months. Thanks for the content.

[@izecubez]

Hi Turbo! Do you have a link for the dashcam files that are not compressed? KZbin is kinda potato with compression and I kinda want to see how it actually looks like before committing to buy the k5..

[@misterx1516]

Is it possible to track my motorcycle when it gets stolen and the dashcam is not connected to any wifi?

[@hellfiru12]

How much power does it use? Is it viable to use it with phone charger and heated grips turned on? Thanks!

[@Fee.1]

Yooo I’m not undoing screws every time I take the SD card out. Wtf am I supposed to do take the camera off every time? Major oversight making such a cheap solution

[@SUITUGA]

u dont need to take the sd out at the end of the day you take your phone and u can delete the videos you dont want and the others you save them in your phone gallery or in the pc

[@Fee.1]

@@SUITUGA it’s a design failure no matter how you slice it. Transferring over Bluetooth or via an Ad-hoc WiFi network takes forever and when you really need to transfer footage youre not going to want to stand there and find it and edit it and stand there waiting for it to transfer while you’re standing in the sun or snow etc. trying to get the footage to the police officer or whatever the case may be. It also makes it basically impossible to use this any way but the one way they picture you using it. If you want/need to save all your footage long term you’re screwed because you either stand there transferring to your phone constantly or you have to pop open the slot every time it gets full and deal with all that

[@komangdwi]

It takes only seconds to download it to your phone over the wifi... I just installed and try it on my africa twin.

[@krisvenema]

@@komangdwi are you still using this camera? Easy to transfer videos to phone?

[@joemann7971]

Excellent video! I kinda wish the made the entire system more like the K3. They could have just labelled the 4K camera so we know which one is the 4K camera. Even though the unit isn't that big, it will still be more noticable than the K3, and the 4K camera lens looks roughly the same size, so, I don't see how they couldn't have made it separate.

[@ElroyMcDuff]

Bennetts Bike mentioned the K5 briefly in their review of the K3. They said the cable that would be needed for 4k video would need to be thicker and would therefore be more difficult to route through the bike. Sounds legit to me but you're right, a remote camera would be better.

[@hedonzx822]

If you want the complete ride saved to your SD card do you set the setting to off?

[@allenpearson9716]

I don't see your install video. Do you have a link?

[@trailrider1980]

I was more interested in knowing how you set it up on the motorcycle, routed the cables and issues you found with installation.

[@jonpram1737]

This was my thought when I saw a full octopus of connectors coming off the front camera

[@amreshsc1024]

4:23 which is that software used to design that custom part and Is the part 3d printed?

[@hebectabetpa1767]

How much memory it consumes. For example 1 hour ?

[@carlcastilloux651]

Thinkware Sports 1 comparison to InnovvK5 which is a better one?

[@fightthefuture]

Did you find a compare? My understanding is the Thinkware doesn't come on until you start the bike and therefore doesn't record if bike is hit when not in use.

[@keithharvey8192]

is there a purpose made bracket to mount the front camera onto the mt10

[@lestershenk924]

Is it a good rearview mirror ???

[@tdneVmo]

Hey the video is uploaded in 1080p only..

[@CLaboy-db1ur]

Would this work on a scooter ?

[@rightslip8345]

Excellent review thanks!!

[@morenachoz]

Amazing, maybe the best solution in market right now? 👌 Only missing your instalation part to see how you did. Peace ✌

[@TURBOTWINKIE]

Yep, the quality is pretty good compared to a regular dashcam. The install is pretty complicated if you want to make it look really good, Ill have an install video in the future :)

[@barkindustry8150]

Been hunting for a good dash cam instead of using my chin mounted DJI Osmo! Thanks for the awesome review

[@igbatious]

Whatever town that is, it would make me really depressed living there. Thanks for the review though, very helpful.

[@zabt78]

Very good video, very informative!!! Thanks!!!!

[@sataniccrow82]

the decision to have the front camera with everything packed up makes a terrible idea. Anyone can access your sd memory, you have to do some reasonable cable management and wrapping. I don't get the idea behind it, the only reason I could come up with is: to save space from another box to put under the seat.

[@fightthefuture]

It is due to 4k cable would have be too big/stiff to route back to "brain" location.

[@Max.527]

Haha no way. Was this taken in Bradford, Ont?

[@bananafoneable]

My motorcycle vibration is nuts I don't think these types of dash cams work for me.

[@alexwangsa7110]

I want to know how you shift so fast. Do you have an air shifter? Stupid camera, to complicated for me and the night time zoom was horrible. Great review though. thanks. 😁

He has a quick shifter. It allows for clutchless upshifts w/o rolling off the throttle.

[@TURBOTWINKIE]

Thanks! 👍

[@PokerMuppet]

I just see the K5 as pointless. If it's main purpose is for safety and security the K3 is more than adequate. The 4K of the K5 is great but is just overkill without Image Stabilisation. Once Innovv get around to releasing a version with good IS they are on to a winner otherwise, in the mean time save your money and buy the K2 or K3 as the K5 just isn't worth it if you are looking to share videos of your rides so you're better off with a GoPro or Insta360.

[@fightthefuture]

Still feel that way today?

[@PokerMuppet]

@@fightthefuture having watched a number of reviews... 100%. Its close but not good enough yet and certainly not worth that amount of money.

[@PokerMuppet]

@@fightthefuture seems like Innovv agreed too as their newest product the K6 is a cheaper, more basic, stripped back product with use as a dash cam pretty much it's only use case. Although I again see that as pointless as 1080p is adequate to do that job so why upgrade the front camera to 2K which only serves to make the unit more expensive. They should have stuck with a 1080p sensor and made the unit as small and as cheap as possible which would encourage others to buy and use the products. At around £250-£300 a few people will get one but most just won't bother.

[@precludeneco]

Great video as always! How tall are you mate? I'm Trying to figure out if this bike is a good fit for a tall rider (6'3).

[@TURBOTWINKIE]

I’m 5’11 it’s most perfect fit for me, the seat height is really high which I love, really relaxed knee position, if I was abit shorter I wouldn’t be able to flat foot. So you should be fine I think

In all honestly I use my GoPro 🤷🏻‍♂️ Does everything I need and more but nonetheless great review 👍🏻🇨🇦

[@TURBOTWINKIE]

Fair enough!

[@jonpram1737]

Tbh for dash cam I use my Amazon GoPro knock off lol. It’s a Chinese special that cost about $70 on Black Friday and came with all the mounts and cases and spare batteries and such. A go pro is better (I have a 7 black), but just for a dash cam... or in my case tail cam... it’s very hard to justify the price difference! Of course if you’re vlogging then it becomes much easier to justify the cost of a go pro.

[@kkmakwy]

Doesn’t GoPro stops recording and overheat at 30mins?

[@b.f.e6810]

This set up is such big cables no room on my Indian horrible kit😊

[@exothermal.sprocket]

Purdy decent, I'd say. I think if you want to stabilize the forward-facing image, you could work up a better place to mount it, or some damping isolation device to remove the juttering. Mount the rear-facing one centrally to see both sides of the bike equally from the rear for capturing if any wild motorist is hungry for a bike sandwich.

[@TURBOTWINKIE]

The problem with the MT-10 is there is barely any space under the headlight, and the steering stabilizer doesn't help either as it takes up a lot of space especially when the handlebars are turned. That leaves me with little available space to make a bracket for the camera, although I am considering to revise the design a little. For the rear it will definitely be relocated, I just put it there because I was going to install a new fender eliminator anyways, so that was temporary. Thanks for commenting.
