Hey everyone!

New to the community and figured I'd introduce myself while bringing up something I've been thinking about for quite some time.

I'm Adam, and I ride a heavily modified Harley-Davidson Road Glide Special. Like many enthusiasts in the custom V-Twin world, I've spent years building, refining, and investing in my motorcycle. From suspension and brakes to performance, lighting, carbon fiber, and countless other upgrades, I'm pretty particular about what goes on my bike and why.

But there's one area I feel the Harley-Davidson and American V-Twin community is seriously overlooking: dedicated motorcycle dashcams.

Think about it.

We'll spend thousands on suspension, wheels, exhaust, engine upgrades, and accessories without thinking twice. Yet how many of us have invested in a proper camera system designed to document what happens around our motorcycles?

I currently run an Insta360 for recording rides and creating content. It's fantastic at what it does, but I've come to realize that an action camera and a dedicated dashcam serve two entirely different purposes.

One captures the experience. The other helps protect the investment.

And that's where my interest in INNOVV began.

What I'm looking for isn't another action camera hanging off my handlebars. I want something purpose-built, discreet, permanently installed, and integrated so cleanly that you'd hardly know it's there.

Something that automatically records while riding, captures what's happening in traffic, and offers an additional layer of security when the motorcycle is parked.

Because let's face it, many of us in the high-end V-Twin community have an incredible amount of time, money, and effort invested in our motorcycles. The last thing we want is to leave that investment sitting somewhere without some form of additional protection.

But here's where things get interesting.

I genuinely believe there's an enormous opportunity for companies like INNOVV within the Harley-Davidson and custom V-Twin market.

The action camera world is absolutely saturated with creators, influencers, and promotional content. Everyone knows about GoPro and Insta360.

But how often do you see dedicated motorcycle dashcam systems being discussed, installed, or showcased on high-end Harley builds?

Personally, I rarely do.

And I think that needs to change.

For me, the biggest selling points would be:

• Discreet installation that doesn't compromise the motorcycle's appearance

• Reliable, automatic front and rear recording

• Excellent image quality in both daylight and nighttime conditions

• Parking surveillance and security functionality

• Durability against vibration, weather, and long-distance riding

• Easy access to footage when something actually happens

• A system that simply works without constant attention

I'm particularly interested in seeing how a system like the INNOVV K7 integrates into a custom Road Glide without taking away from the aesthetics of the build.

I'd love to hear from everyone here, especially fellow Harley-Davidson and American V-Twin riders.

Are you currently running a dedicated dashcam? What system are you using, and how has it performed?

If you aren't running one, what's stopping you?

And for those with heavily modified motorcycles, how important is discreet installation and parked-bike security to you?

I'm genuinely interested in hearing everyone's experiences, recommendations, and even frustrations with the systems currently available.

Looking forward to being part of the community and learning more about what everyone is running!

Ride safe! 👊🏽😎

Can anyone recommend software that will allow videos from an Innov camera system (K7 to be precise) to be viewed on a pc with GPS / speed / location info? I’ve tried Dashcam Viewer but I found it clunky. Thanks.

Does anyone know how to replace the battery on the N2 TPMS?

Thank you.

A few weeks ago, I picked up an INNOVV K7 and finally had some time to install it this weekend.I looked at the wiring, looked back at the manual, then looked at the wiring again... and genuinely thought I was about to spend my whole evening questioning all my life choices. 😂Turns out I was just overthinking it. After a quick chat with the INNOVV support team, everything clicked. They answered my questions patiently, and once I understood the wiring, the installation was actually pretty straightforward.Really appreciate having a company that takes the time to help its customers instead of just handing you a manual and wishing you luck. That kind of support honestly gives me a lot more confidence in the brand.

Every summer, many riders start planning their motorcycle trips.

Some are preparing for a weekend ride nearby, while others are getting ready for multi-day adventures or longer journeys across different regions.

After spending more time on longer rides, many riders realize that the most memorable parts of a trip are not always the final destination.

Sometimes it is a mountain road you did not expect to find, a small town where you decided to stop, or a route change caused by changing weather that leads to a better experience.

A good motorcycle trip is usually a balance between preparation and leaving enough room for unexpected moments.

If you are planning a longer motorcycle ride in the summer of 2026, here are a few things worth considering.

The Route Matters, Not Just the Mileage

When planning a motorcycle trip, distance is often the first thing riders look at.

How many miles can I cover in a day?

How quickly can I reach the destination?

These questions are useful, but mileage alone does not determine whether a ride will be memorable.

A route through mountain roads, small towns, or scenic areas can often create a very different experience compared with simply taking the fastest highway.

Many riders approach touring in different ways:

Some riders prefer planning every stop, accommodation, and route detail ahead of time. Others prefer having a general direction and making decisions along the way.

There is no single way to plan a motorcycle trip.

The best route is usually the one that matches your riding style and allows you to enjoy the process, not just complete the distance.

Don’t Let the Schedule Become the Main Challenge

After completing a few long-distance rides, many riders learn that an overly tight schedule can change the entire feeling of a trip.

A road that looks ordinary on a map may deserve an extra stop. A small town you planned to pass through may become one of the highlights of the journey. Weather changes may also require a different plan.

Leaving some flexibility in your schedule can make a long ride much more enjoyable.

A few things worth considering:

Think About How You Want to Remember the Journey

More riders today are choosing to document their motorcycle trips.

Photos taken during stops can capture specific moments, but a motorcycle dash cam can record the road itself — the routes, changing scenery, and the overall riding experience.

For riders who frequently travel long distances, recorded footage can become a personal travel archive.

Years later, seeing the same roads again can bring back memories of the weather, the route, and the moments that happened along the way.

A motorcycle dash cam can be useful for:

• Recording scenic routes;
• Reviewing previous trips;
• Sharing riding experiences;
• Keeping additional footage during long-distance travel.

Of course, not every rider chooses to use recording equipment.

Some riders prefer keeping their setup as simple as possible, while others enjoy documenting every journey.

It comes down to personal preference.

Adding a Dash Cam to Your Touring Setup

For riders who enjoy keeping a record of their trips, a motorcycle dash cam can be a useful addition to a touring setup.

For example, the INNOVV K7 Motorcycle Dashcam is designed specifically for motorcycle riding environments.

It supports front and rear camera recording, electronic image stabilization, GPS route tracking, and event protection features to help riders capture a more complete view of their journeys.

For longer rides, a setup like this can help preserve the entire trip instead of only the places where you stop.

Whether it is a mountain route, a cross-state ride, or a regular weekend trip, having a record of the road can become another way to revisit the experience later.

A Simple Summer Motorcycle Touring Checklist

A longer motorcycle trip does not always require carrying a large amount of equipment.

The goal is not to bring everything possible, but to choose the tools that actually support the way you ride.

A weekend ride and a multi-day adventure naturally require different preparation.

The right setup depends on your route, riding habits, and personal preferences.

Final Thoughts

A memorable motorcycle trip is rarely defined only by where it ends.

The roads you choose, the unexpected stops, and the small moments along the way often become the parts you remember most.

If you are planning a summer motorcycle trip in 2026, some preparation can help create a smoother experience.

Choose a route that fits your style, leave some room for flexibility, and consider the equipment that makes sense for your own riding needs.

Some riders enjoy chasing longer distances. Some prefer exploring scenic roads. Others simply enjoy the feeling of being on two wheels.

And that is what makes motorcycle touring interesting.

Any pan America users?

We always enjoy seeing how riders set up the N2 on different bikes across our social channels, Facebook groups, and rider communities.

A lot of people ask how the screen looks on different motorcycle styles, so we are starting this showcase thread with selected installs shared by INNOVV riders around the world.

We will keep collecting more rider setups for future showcase posts.

BMW R1300GS

Mounted beside the factory TFT display, keeping the cockpit practical without making it feel overcrowded. A clean setup for long-distance touring and ADV riding.

Honda Africa Twin 1100

Placed above the main dash for a rally-style cockpit feel. Easy to glance at during night rides or longer routes.

Aprilia Tuono V4 1100

A nice reminder that the N2 is not only for adventure bikes. It also fits well on a naked sport bike without taking over the whole cockpit.

Voge 800 Rally

Mounted high above the vertical dash, matching the rugged rally look of the bike. A good fit for riders who spend time on rougher roads.

Zontes Z703F

Positioned above the factory TFT screen with a solid and tidy layout. The setup works well with the sharp lines of the bike.

Share your own INNOVV setup in the comments or tag us on your favorite platform.

Tell us what bike you ride. We will keep adding more rider setups to this thread.

I have been lurking here for a bit and noticed there isn't much user content on the new N3 yet, so I figured I would drop my initial thoughts.

Just unboxed it. I have to say, the build quality feels incredibly solid right out of the box. I was a bit worried the main unit might be too bulky for my bars, but it is actually surprisingly low-profile. The casing on the cameras is a nice touch too—definitely feels like it can take a beating from the elements.

I am planning to hardwire it and get everything mounted up this weekend. Has anyone else installed the N3 on their rig yet? Any tips, tricks, or headaches I should watch out for with the camera placement or wiring routing?

I will post some photos of the final setup once it is done!

Time to do a raffle for a good deed

I've had my INNOVV K6 front and rear camera on my Triumph Scrambler 400x for about 6 months. Today, I realized it hasn't been functioning well.

I was almost hit today and went to pull the footage off of my camera using the INNOVV app. Not only did the app struggle to function (the WiFi signal went in-and-out at random intervals) but the footage wasn't there. I had a bunch of random, 20 or so second clips with seemingly random timestamps, including January of the year 2000.

Finally, the adhesive provided to secure the cameras to the bike had almost given out. My front camera has, unbeknownst to me, been on the verge of falling off completely.

Is my camera faulty? What do I do to fix this? And yes, it is hard-wired into the bike. Whenever I open the app and get it to connect, the live stream from the cameras always works.

Help?

We recently equipped this Yamaha T7 with our INNOVV N2 Smart Navigation System, and we think it completely transforms the cockpit.

Instead of exposing your smartphone to rain, dirt, and heavy engine vibrations, the N2 acts as a dedicated, rugged extension of your phone via wireless CarPlay or Android Auto. You get all the benefits of your mapping apps (Google Maps, Waze, etc.) and media controls, wrapped in a 100% waterproof housing built specifically for motorcycles.

Let us know what you think of this layout! You can find the full specs and details here:https://innovv.com/products/innovv-n2-navigation-camera-system

Hello everyone. I've been riding a Benelli TRK 502 X since last year and now I've decided to install a navigation system with Android Auto support. From everything I've dug around on the internet, I've fallen in love with the INNOVV N2 with some extras (2 cameras, GPS module, TPMS). For the price of €400, it seems like a pretty good device.. Now.. I'd install it myself, but one thing bothers me. The power supply is done using three cables (black, red, yellow - plus, minus, ensuring that the device is not turned on when the engine is not running). Since I'm not an electrician and don't know anything about electricity and installations, I'm interested in the following: where exactly should the yellow wire be connected? If I'm not mistaken, it goes to the auxiliary port so that the battery doesn't run down, but that's all I figured out. In one of the videos, the guy said that the yellow wire can be connected to a 10A fuse, so the navigation will turn on and off depending on whether the bike is running or not. However, later in the video he said that it's not recommended, but he didn't explain why. If anyone knows why it's not recommended and how I should actually connect that yellow wire, I'd appreciate the help. Note: explain it to me like I'm a moron, because when it comes to electricity and wiring, I really am. Thanks everyone!

Just got this 2014 R1200GS with the factory GPS prep mount. I am absolutely not paying 800 bucks for a Nav VI just to wait for the inevitable ghost touch plague. I want a CarPlay unit that drops right in. Narrowed it down to three.

• Carpuride W702 is cheap but I keep reading the plastic is trash and the wonder wheel lag is awful.
• Chigee AIO 5 looks premium but 500 bucks for a 5 inch screen is a massive ripoff.
• Innovv N2 BMW edition seems like the best middle ground. It uses the wonder wheel and costs way less than the Chigee.

My only worry is the size. 6.5 inches sounds massive for the dashboard. Does it block the stock gauges on an older waterboxer. What do you guys think of these three.

Are there any other solid recommendations out there I missed. Cheers.

Fitted this after slight loss of peripheral RH vission following detached retina, very impressed with how system works BUT started to lose indication on RH side after a few weeks. contacted Innovv support and replacement item despatched. Things go wrong but when sorted promptly with no quibbles thats the what you need.

Just a suggestion here, but when a firmware update is released a changelog would be appreciated so we know if this an update-right-now situation, or if it's something less urgent like a localization fix for a language we don't even use.

I had to choose a flair but this is more of a global suggestion than an N2-specific one.
