Innovv K5, but on an 1100 Yamaha. I will put one on the Forza 350 when it arrives.

The sound is rubbish but I think it's been upgraded since the video is good enough and it is always on.

It obviously depends on how good you want the picture to be. If you are using it as a dashcam for capturing traffic just in case there is an accident, then any dashcam will work. I have mine mounted on the inside of my windshield and it does the job I installed it for. I had a GoPro there but thought that it was a waste of a good camera for just capturing traffic. I also have a side mount for when I wish to attach the GoPro to capture scenery during a ride. Both of the cameras can plug into a double USB port that I have wired to my battery under the seat.

To be fair mostly as a dash cam but also so I can use the footage on my YouTube if its of any relevance or funny too. Logic is a can get a hero 3 for £40 and hard wore it for another £30. My guess is thats got to be better than any days cam. But do like the idea off having GPS date from a days cam
