INNOVV K2 Motorcycle Dash Cam - Easy Step by Step Install Guide via Hex eZcan
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ก.ย. 2024
- The Innovv K2 motorcycle dash cam is the leading dual motorcycle camera system with great 1080p, 120 degree field of view recording front and rear, to give you total security at all times. This vid takes you through the Innovv k2 installation on a BMW R1250GS, but the process is very similar on all bikes. This vid also incorporates the Hex eZcan Gen II to provide the switched live feed to the Innovv K2 motorcycle camera.
It's an easy step by step guide that absolutely anyone can follow. I also include some test footage from the maiden ride with the cameras so check them out at the end of the vid.

Give up this work, your not at all good at it.
You’re awesome though, please teach me 🙏👋
@Equaliser. You’re not at all good at spelling, maybe you should give up writing?
teapotone Bruce, is this what you have to put up with?
Ha Ha sadly yes bud, it’s part and parcel of putting yourself out there I’m afraid - Bell Ends occasionally rear their empty heads 😉👍😂
teapotone 😂😂looking forward to meeting you someday!
Keep thinking about getting one too. But one for each bike?? Or none. Then there are the cars!! Cheers Bruce very clear video.
Did we not pop one on yours when we put the denali lights on?
A BIKE THING no cameras on my bike, just lots of lights and the horn! Strobe proved useful to get campervans to move over on the single track around the top of Scotland this week.
Thanks for the link Bruce 👍🏻 new GSA arriving 1st September so got to do it all again. People will tell you the GPS won’t work unless flat but every time I’ve needed it (eg speeding stop to check actual. It matched!!) it’s been working fine. Interested to see what’s coming too as if the quality was just 10% better and ease of transfer easier I’d use more footage recreationally as it’s always on when GoPro has let you down!! Ride safe 👍🏻
Hi Nick,
No bother at all bud, your vid was a big help with the GPS as mine works fine too - after I enabled it in the app 🤦♂️😂👍
Any problems with the GPS location behind the left panel? Is it working as it should?
Seems to be fine - has an occasional loss of gps signal but I think that’s just ‘black spots’ in coverage as my satnav does the same at times
@@teapotone Thanks Bruce great Video and advice as usual.
its a good idea to turn the speed off incase you need the footage in court. they cant see you going 100 mph.
It is not a big deal to calculate the speed ... you have the framerate of the cam and the moving parts on the video (Delineator posts
with a spec. distance) so it is not a big deal to get the speed
check my video's I can tell you howmany seconds or most of the time howmany tenth of a second they drive behind me
All you need is a reference point
Maybe it needs a feature , only keep video below the legal limit. i.e. When the ignition is next switch off, and then switched on again, automatically wipe video with illegal speeds as part of the shutdown process. Maybe it should prompt "Do you want to erase?" before doing the erase !
I guess GPS mapping , and knowing the speed limit would make it better, but that'd be harder to code than just a blanket rule of "don't keep video where I went over 70 !"
Or if the old bill are that bothered, they simply seIe your phone and can see exactly where you were at what date and time, and work it all out anyway.
@@teapotone true ! but don't want to make it easy for them :)
Another top tip. Most modern motos have fused switched live feeds already fitted for optional, expensive extras such heated seats and other such pish they want to flog you. I used my own Yamahas very same switched live hiden away under yes you guessed it, the seat; to wire in yon required switched live feed and the +power feed and -neutral to the Inovv K5, what I fitted. Means you don't need to wire to the battery at all. Safety third...
If you get issues with GPS, The antenna is supposed to point directly to the sky, not 90deg angle and half under a tank :-)
Two cameras in clear view and teapot needs to hide the inconspicuous gps unit away and orient it so it's not ideally facing satellites. Still if it works fine then no worries.
It works fine where it is ta 👍
@@teapotone I guess a thin bit of plastic and a chunky teapot thigh is not enough to block the satellites. You're most likely to have issues in built up area with tall buildings and limited sky view.
Is the GPS speed setting off as the video isn’t showing speed... it’s also set to Km/hr😁.
I need to experiment with the app settings to get the park mode separate from the temporary stop (at lights for example) mode.This is because it puts the stocked footage into different directories on the micro SD card.
Yes the speed was off on the app - turned on and working fine now
Thank you so much for sharing god bless you brother 👍🏼
All sorted quick question what settings do you have the cameras set at bitrate etc
Hi there I hope you read this, please could you tell me where the best places to put a k3 or k5 on a Kawasaki ninja 650. KRT
I had it on the centre just above the mudguard where there is one screw directly in the middle. But as Kawasaki Ninja is notorious for diving down at the front
So this was scratching my mudguard.
Any ideas.
That’s a shame it doesn’t work there as the underside of the ‘beak’ is usually a good place. It must really dive!
What about mounting to the wing mirror mounting holes? Means the camera is more exposed though
Yes it really does dive down, it was only when I was getting the bike professionally cleaned and faxed the man said the cameras here in your mudguard. When I took it to a different mechanic he showed me when he was pushing the bike and press the brakes how low it went.
He said imagine doing that at 60 70 miles an hour even with progressive breaking I do it still does it
Is there any way of tightening the suspension a little on the Kawasaki Ninja. And if I go for the k5 as it’s flat it might be okay??? What do you think
Not sure about your suspension bud, you’re better off talking with your mechanic/dealership about that.
The K5 4K camera is quite big for sure, but for me personally I’m not trying to hide the camera. It’s actually as deep as the K2/K3 cameras so you’d have the same issue in terms of the mudguard hitting it.
Drop Innovv.co.uk a line and ask if they have any ideas for your bike👍
Another great vid Bruce, liking the slightly different content from the normal stuff, especially the dancing💃 . you've just convinced me to get one. Just need to convince her indoors lol. 👍
Great video......i have just fitted this INNOVV K2 system to my new Tiger Sport......to get/start a video before a journey do i have to via phone app as i'm only getting random 1 minute clips ...... an idiot guide on use would be helpful......cheers
It should start recording automatically as soon as the ignition is on - it’s literally a fit and forget system so you shouldn’t have to do anything at all.
I’ll be doing a more thorough walk through of everything in a forthcoming vid 👍
Great job Bruce!👍 That VW camper looks in great condition, is like that all round? Loving the vids, keep them coming!👍
Looks a beauty eh!......would love to see that one day....
I think we need a Campervan walk around Bruce!
Good video, thanks. But why not connect the K2 completely over the Hex Ezcan? It even has this setup in the manual on page 23/24. + and ground and the striped wire for the ignition switched yellow wire. I’m in the process of installing and this seems the preferred setup....?
Yep you can certainly do that, BUT I’ve been asked loads of times how you do it via the HexEzcan, hence why I did this vid 👍
Nice one Bruce thanks for the info. The old bill show very little interest without vids to prove it. Don’t ask how I know. Cheers
Hello, good day, I'm a bit lost and I need your help, to connect 2 pairs of auxiliary lights using the Hex ezCan on a bmw r1200 gs. could you help me
Hi Claudio,
Have you been on the HexEzcan.com website? There are videos on there showing how to do it 👍
Thanks for reply I found it and job done
Great video thanks, I ordered the K3 and it arrived today so gonna be in my garage working out how to get it onto my Tiger 1200 XRt... I maybe gone sometime :-)
PS, which Velcro stuff do you use?
Cheers, I use this stuff
amzn.to/2SptTie
It’s a referral link so I make a small amount off each sale
Enjoyed that. Am I the guy who you were referring to as 'screaming'? 😂. Looks like a good job Bruce! Not how I do it but I do fit about 2 of these a week and have the tools to strip these bikes down in minutes. Tank off etc. Messes with my OCD's seeing wires running between trim and tank. Anyway, let me know if you want any denali equipment. I'll sort you out! 👍🏽
How uncanny that you posted this video. Just purchased one myself for the new Tiger xrt.
I'm thinking of getting one for my Tiger 1200 - let us know how you get on!
If you can, what are your thoughts on it now? I had a K1 for several years and it wasn't very reliable. I'm pretty hesitant to buy another Innovv right now.
I’m actually just in the process of doing a full review vid. I think it’s great, really is a fit and forget system, it just runs in the background and captures everything.
I’ve had zero issues with the K2
@@teapotone Glad to hear it, my K1 would lock up randomly which made it functionally useless cause I had no idea if it worked or not. Tried every possible solution and got nowhere.
Cheers for the vid, monkey see monkey do...... As you've said Innov have some 'updates' coming, think I'll wait n see what fairy dust they sprinkle on their next version.....
Nice vedio
May i ask you why the speed recording kmph shown zero? It should measure the bike speed
The GPS wasn’t t working correctly in those clips
is it true that if the police stop you and you have a camera system attacehd to the vehicle, they are able to confisicate the footage, but if its attacehd to you ( a helmet cam), they can't?
In the UK no - unless they suspect an offence has been committed, in which case they can. Or even if someone else alleges you were involved in an offence.
Great video Bruce but for me any dash cam are bad news. Enough bloody cameras out there without more being added. Wont be able to fart shortly without someone capturing it and reporting it! It's a pass for me
Another great video Bruce! Really enjoyed watching the content as usual! Also, really like the idea/concept of the Innov K2 system however, for me, it would need to be a 4K system (or at least a 2.7 K) system with a decent bit rate and image stabilisation! I’d want the system to act as both a standard dashcam for any traffic incidents/evidence but also as a convenient system for filming rides while on holiday! So the better quality would benefit both, even if it’s not strictly necessary for dashcam use! Regarding dashcam specifically, I’d be interested to know how it performs at night? What’s up also, if Innov could include the option of a hex eazican (Denali) fitment in the future? Or is that being a bit too specific?!
Hopefully, as you alluded to, some great new developments coming from Innov, so some of my wishes may appear in the future! Looking forward to seeing the developments!
Got one fitted to my Africa Twin. Getting the micro sd card is a bit of a faff, it may get lost forever when you eventually manage to get it out as it then falls into the depths of the bike. The bluetooth download is so so slow its ridiculous . take the card out and load it onto your computer. That said the quality is fine for a few b roll clips and great for if you need it to prove some knob pulled out infront of you!
Aye the SD card is a nightmare isn’t it, that will definitely be in the full review!
I’m really impressed with the footage 👍
I bought it as well when I bought my new bike a year ago, just in case I'm rear ended or someone pulls out in front of me. It also doubles somewhat as a normal camera for group rides, the pictures are great quality.
I didn’t think it was possible to say Hex ezcan that many times😉
And I’m not even sponsored by them! 🤦♂️😂
Great vid as always and I can see the benefit of having evidential footage should it all go shit shaped. But the potential for it working against you, even when you're just out "enjoying" the ride, should you get pulled by Mr bad mood plod (I can say that now you're out), especially as I ride a lot in north Wales is just too high. I get it, if you spend a good amount of time riding in a city with all the homicidal car drivers and cyclists ect, but will be a cold day in hell before I'd fit one on my bike.
Oddly enough my new FJR has one already installed from its previous owner. I wondered what the heck it was at first.
How did you feed the rear camera cable in to connect to DVR ?
There’s a small hole in the plastic housing below the rider’s seat - imaging you’re sitting on your bike with in front being 12 o’clock and directly behind is 6 o’clock - then this hole is at about 8 o’clock where the subframe connects to the bike.
I just fed the cable in there then ran it to the DVR
from Québec Canada nice job and funny vidéos
Thanks Mario 👍
Good vid pal. Quick question, is the gps working correctly as the time/date/speed stamp on the vid is showing 000MPH, although date and time is working? Should this not show your speed in case of accident?
Hello Sir! Greetings from Stornoway. You sound much like a fellow Scotch chap..there should be more of us on Utube..
I have an RT1200 and I have an INNOV K2 installed. I simply found a switched live under the seat after some trial and error and managed to Tap-in and connect the Yellow wire. it's been working fine. I hadn't heard of the Hex ezcan at that stage..
However...I may be changing my bike and getting the new RT1250 and if so I'll be transferring the K2 to my new bike so I may go the route of using the Hex ezcan since it'll give me more options when it comes to adding accessories.
So, question, Does the Hex ezcan have to be installed on the bike before I configure the port through the Software? Or can I do it on my desktop machine and then install it? I don't have a laptop, just the computer in the hoose.
Thanks!
Hi Iain,
I believe you can confirgure the EZCan on your desktop and then install on the bike 👍
@@teapotone Nice one, I look forward to giving it a go.
Ok just got everything shifted over to the new RT1250 and all working! The battery leads on the EZCan could do with being a bit longer but it's fine.
You are Guilty, because of this great video I bought myself a K2 as I don’t need more than that, today I installed and I’m pretty happy with it, I still have to test it more but the season has not arrive 100% so thanks for the videos and great camera from Innovv
Hey Teapotone... Great footage and reviews. Whilst watching had an ah-ha moment as I recognised the A229, a road you were on in my neck of the woods! Maybe could meet up for a ride at some point!?
Awesome guide! In another dimension/life, you are/were a teacher. You've gotta create a "screenshots" folder though to clean up your desktop.
Great review and tutorial, thank you.
Cheers Lisa, glad you enjoyed it 👍
Why does all people grabbing a soldering iron develop instant parkinsons ? :)
Good system, had the old innov version on my last bike. seems they fixed all the major problems in this new one.
I’ve got really shaken hands full stop bud 😂🤷♂️
Same here, as soon as the iron touches wire my hands are shaking like a shitting dog! And I am an electrician, or was!
😂👍
@@teapotone While I have your attention... LOL.. Can you confirm that the battery drain issue with the k2 is fixed so not going to flatten battery in 2 days.. and.. what sort of drain does parking mode add if it has been fixed?
Yes the battery drain issue is fixed. My tractor has sat for 2 weeks and had no battery issue whatsoever👍
Hi Bruce, another great video. I noticed on the Innov playback that the road speed was at 00KMPH, is this pre set to be at zero or does it have to be set in the Innov App? 👍👍👍👍
Between yourself and Mr Flyer your costing me a fortune. Great easy to follow video thanks will invest in cameras when I get my Tiger in March.
Thanks for your video I’m from the US I ride a Harley Davidson looking for a camera system. I don’t like a GoPro and all that kind of stuff. Plus the safety. I was wondering is this downloadable to my cloud on my iPhone? I know it’s on an SD card that would be for back up but. I would really like to be able to control everything from my phone. Send it to my photos which would put it in my Apple cloud automatically. Any insight would be really awesome dude. Enjoy the weekend God bless brother
I have seen several motorcycle cameras, and one of the problems is that they have a lot of vibrations. does it work without vibration? Departures from Spain......Google Translator
Teapot I just ran across your channel as I was searching for an install vid. GREAT job with explanations, camera work and super kuddos on getting the VO level out front of your music bed. Very important and you nailed it!
Great Vid.
I want to install this on a 2023 S1000rr but no ez can. Help!!! 😢😢
Great video Bruce. Well explained! I find my 1250 GSA engine gives off a lot of heat from under my right leg. My 2017 1200 GS didn’t do this. So don’t worry about the wiring! 👍🏻
Smart job there Bruce. You now just need to dangle a light aircraft engine and propeller from the inside of your garage roof (with a fuel tank in the rafters) and then you look set to survive another warm summer. Perhaps TMF can help you out with a spare aircraft engine?
Good 👍
thanks for the video. But you can also take the red + and black - and the yellow wire together and put them into a plug and connect to the ezcan right? No need to attach to battery directly that way.
I've got a 1988 yamaha xv750 virago trike can this k2 kit fit that .as no good electronic bit what u got .how much would it cost for someone to fit cheers council kev
Buena tarde
Estoy en colombia me encanta su didáctica de instrucción , es homologado por la bmw este producto? O puede dañarme la garantía eléctrica de 3 años que trae la moto, e igual me dicen que las luces exploradoras Dinnelli no son homologadas es cierto ? Dónde puedo revisar los productos homologados por BMW para mantener la garantía?
If the bitrate were at least 50-60 and resolution were Full HD at 60fps this would be perfect I think.
Thanks for reply I’ve watched that but how do you get the cable from rear camera into bike to connect to DVR ? I can’t see any gaps to feed cable in from rear I’ve the camera in same place as you
This really is great but in 2021 I would expect more than 1080 30fps
Been thinking about cameras/dash cams on the bike for a while....
Do I HAVE to install the EZCAN to make the Innovv camera work, or can I just connect it directly ???
Cheers for the very helpful vids Bruce, really handy.
Ta.
You can install directly, I’m only using the eZCan here because so many people have asked me to show how to do it.
It’s very straight forward installation, just ensure you use a switches live feed so the unit powers on/off from the ignition
why not run power From the hex ez can instead of the battery? (Assuming u don’t want the parking guard feature)
Awesome review! Ezcan should be an ideal resolution for power wiring! BlueSkySea motorcycle dashcam worths a look at also!
I bought a K2 about 3 months ago and have only just ironed out a problem that's existed from day one. It connected to wifi ok but would only record for 6-7 mins before switching itself off. It was then switching on and off over the course of a long ride and i was getting something like 40% footage captured - not great when you consider why you fit one. Anyway, cutting to the chase, I discovered that the convertor was overheating and cutting out. I'd fitted that beneath the driver seat (just like almost everyone else has) I moved it to behind the small side panel you've used for the GPS and all is now sweet!
Innovv have produced a new convertor thats good up to 75c following complaints. PS ignore EqwaloyzaZ comentz
Cheers Gerry,
Ah ok, yes they did say they’d improved the converter but I didn’t realise it had had issues with overheating?
All seems good for me at the moment thankfully, but appreciate the heads up 👍
Great review i live in the same area, if i see you ill give you a shout, thinking about KTM you did review on now seeing gs vid not sure wot to do. Not making it easy for me lol, brilliant reviews and information keep it up
Many thanks, I think I have it but will have a quick review over with Nick just in case..
Wow Even i did understand And i now know that i can do it myself
Thank you for making this video
Nice one the Innovv looks to me as good as the go pro good info thanks I will look into this one . : )
Hi mate hope your well,I liked your video on how to mount it into the bike, but I may have to meet you and you can help me mount it together when your free,if you don’t mind
Great informative vid, might invest on the 850ADV, keep em coming chap.
great video. Sound from the Innov sounds like its underwater. I contacted Innov UK via their website and by email 3 or 4 times over the last month asking about the K2 and their new model but they failed to reply any of my emails etc. Very nice system, perfect for the job intended, just a shame the company is so unresponsive.
That’s honestly not like them at all tbh bud, they’re usually very good at replying.
Drop them a line via social media 👍
Hello chum good viewing I have a different system Vsysto and has similar video quality although I recently broke my front camera (must have been a stone) I wanted something cheap. Can you tell me is the lens glass toughen?
Love the channel keep up the good wk and much respect ✊
Hi Skip,
Yes it’s 6G tempered glass on the lens 👍
Hey Bruce how can I find you on fb? Cheers from Maverick.
Great video Bruce. I thought that you would have powered the K2 from the Hex eZcan as well as taking the switched 12v supply.
Also, will you use the footage from these cameras in your blogs?
No the power comes from the DC Converter bud.
Yes I’ll incorporate the dashcam footage sometimes into a vid if it’s suitable 👍
@@teapotone I think what he meant was that you could supply the power adapter from the hex, just pair up the + red supply lead and the yellow switched power lead - I've done my V-Sys P6FL (Chinese version of K2) system that way and it all works perfectly.
@@araf4908 You can do this but you lose parking mode
You can do this but you lose parking mode.
Hey Bruce, if you want, you could think about knocking up a reg plate cover with your logo on for these workshop vids, so you don't have to remember to blur it out.
Great idea 👍
Great video whats the easy can used for .as wanted this cameras for my trike can I put yellow wire in key on fuse cheers
The ezcan is for bikes with a Canbus electrical system, like BMW’s etc.
It allows multiple accessories to be wired into a bikes electrical system and be controlled via the bikes existing switchgear.
@@teapotone thanks I've looked at camera thru your link .just wondered if yellow wire b ok on my cbr600f trike as only ride once a week due to work and don't want flat battery 2006 model .are these about good all round as was looking at the bluesea ones .bit confused now .cheers council kev
The INNOVV units have a dc converter unit which monitors your bikes battery and ensures it doesn’t drain your battery flat.
You have to connect the yellow wire to a switched live somewhere on your bike - so the ignition feed, rear brake light, headlight etc
@@teapotone thanks for ur reply and time council kev
Nice easy to follow install instructional vid. I've heard of Bay Window campers being termed a shed, (if it is a particularly grotty, rust-riddled bus) but I can see yours is being used as just that, storing lots of stuff. BTW, it looks a lot nicer than the 1973 one I had.
It’s my wife’s Bus, she stores stuff in it when she’s not using it 🤦♂️🤷♂️
Watching on the big screen through firestick. How does this affect your analytics? I come on the app to like but don't re-watch......
I’ve no idea tbh Darren, don’t worry about it bud 👍
Great video thinking of one myself but can’t afford it at the moment video quality is perfect for a dashcam didn’t you fit a innov system to one of your other bikes but you friend fitted it 🤷♂️
Yep that was the C5 a few years ago
Sorry if been asked but why didn’t your speed show up on the test run?
Excellent post, thank you.
If Innovv are bringing out a better system as mentioned, is it worth risking it and waiting?
👍🏻
I don’t know if their intended timescales yet tbh bud, I’ll just get given something when they’re ready 🤷♂️👍
Cheers! Clean install and enjoyable video.
It looks to me like the light levels on the Innovv are better than the Gopro on the side by side comparisons.
Do you think so?
@@teapotone Definitely.
I prefer the GoPro to be honest, the GoPro footage colour corrects better too
@@teapotone May well be the rose tinted glasses I view the world through.
Me thinks you are better with the spanner’s than you let on sir
Hi friend, do you have a video about another model?
What the f is an easy. Can... is yhe the vaporbox?
Top Tip! Use a tiny bit of Meguiars glass sealant on the camera lenses to keep then rain free during periods of er, rain. Also works brilliantly on mirrors and all other things glass.
Great tip, cheers bud 👍👏
Great video Bruce! Can I ask, you plugged the positive and negative cables of the DVR to the battery, why didn't you connect them directly to Hex eZcan as you did with (yellow) switched ignition signal?
Because the DC converter unit has to be wired direct to the battery
@@teapotone Not according to the ezcan instruction manual (pages 23 and 24)
ezCAN PWM/Data pin to Dash cam ignition trigger input
ezCAN 12V+ power pin to Dash cam 12V input
ezCAN ground pin to Dash cam ground
Maybe innov will be making a vlogging camera that is not shaped like a brick....!
Have drift ever contacted you and asked you to try the new ghost XL!.....
No, after I told them what I thought of the Ghost 4K they stopped contacting me anymore - somehow I don’t think I’m a adrift Ambassador anymore😬😂👍
@@teapotone I want a camera .....but I can't do with the shape of the go pro brick.....surely there must be a better shaped camera.... somebody's missing a massive hole in the market there!
Hi Bruce, very informative video, I shall be following it step by step. Do you know where the best place is to purchase the K2? Or even better, anyone doing a Hex Ezcan/K2 bundle? :D Cheers!
I will be for the denali smartcan made by Hex.
Have a similar system on my MT10, nice to know it’s there just in case. 👍
Mate, awesome vid, could the GPS help locate the bike if it was stolen ?
Thanks Brent.
No, the GPS is active when the ignition is on so power is being delivered to the DVR module, so if your bike ignition isn’t on then no Info is being sent.
Also the gps info isn’t sent to the app, it’s store in each file written on the SD card so you would need that in order to read the gps info.
Well look at you doing quality informative install videos with no assistance 🤣 next you will be doing your Own serviceing videos great video Bruce. is there any chance your old colleges could use this against you if you get pulled over, not sure on the rules on footage 🤪 Any chance of a discount code now they sponsor you ? Keep the great vids coming 👍👍
I was told by Innovv that the GPS needs to be visible to the satellites, I I mounted mine on my Ktm 1290 near the 12v power at the front right side. It has now lost the top on the GPS cover.
I’ve never had any issues at n either the K3 or K5 with gps, and mine is located behind the side panel on the GS 🤷♂️
Great vid Bruce and you’re looking really well mate. The stress of the job appears to have left your body!
Ha Ha thanks man, aye I’ve never felt happier ta 👍
Looks great Bruce! How much is it? Don't know if i'm being incredibly dense, but I can't see a link to it in the description! Will give it a google :) cheers bud!
Sorry bud, just put the link in the description now.
It ranges from £290-£340 at the mo 👍
@@teapotone Ah no worries mate, thought i'd mention it in case you'd forgotten or had an affiliate link!
Cheers :) will add that to my ever-growing shopping list!
Great video Bruce, quick question are the lights in your garage LED? If so, how do you avoid flickering when filming? Have tried the "copy footage to 2nd video line, advance 1 frame and set the opacity to 50%" trick but doesn't seem to work for me...
Hi Ted,
No they’re not LeD so I also get the flickering lights issue at times. Apparently it’s to do with frame rates and whether you use PAL or NTSC formats????
@@teapotone Interesting...shall have a play with the GoPro settings, cheers mate
I would have thought the speed would auto record from the GPS
It does, but on the app there’s a option to not show it on the display, I had at activated this when I did the test footage.
All sorted now and working fine
Great vid nice to see footage on the new gs
Nice vijeo, Bruce! 40mins too, someone once told me that’s too long... he might have been wrong though. 🤣👍🏻 Now lets hope my OCD can keep away from rerouting your cables at The Overland Event. 🙃😉 But please put the GPS receiver in view of the satellites (I won’t show my better 3/4 as her head would implode).
Take care bud, and see you in a few weeks, I hope.
Hi Jocke,
GPS works fine where it is bud, no dramas. I’m not at the Overland this year sadly, I’m away on a trip 👍
@@teapotone Good to hear the GPS is working, quite surprising though (still won't show it to my better 3/4!). Have a great time on the trip, you'll be missed at The Overland Event. Let me know if you're passing by Lisbon area. And keep those podcasts coming, they keep me company in The Empire of Dirt. Cheers!
Ha Ha thanks bud.
Yeah I’m gutted to miss the Overland, such a top weekend and always great to see everyone again - this year would’ve been even more special for sure.
Take it easy for now bud 👍
@@teapotone Taking it easy is for the other guys, Bruce! 😎👍🏻👍🏻
You’ll be starting your own fitting service next lol great video again well done
Ha Ha thanks bud 👍🙏
Bruce your video quality is great. dont underestimate your talent :)
Thanks bud, that's very kind of you
I thought that GPS receivers had to see the satellites to work?
No it works perfectly fine where it is bud
Another great vid Bruce. Slightly off subject but is that your new GSA? I thought you were getting a KTM???? Or have I missed something? Cheers bud!
Had one of these on my previous bike (previous owner fitted it), it was great fun actually, especially the timelapse footage. Could be a good addition to the content as it gives a unique perspective.
I'm uploading a bit of footage atm so others can see what it produces.
Nice vid. One question about your new 1250. Did you get the taller GSA suspension (like on the 1200 Rallye) or the standard GS suspension?
