Innovv C3 mounting

[ricksride]

I know some here have the C3 mounted on their bikes as I've read the posts... BUT I haven't really seen any pictures of said camera mounted on the bikes.
To those of you that say they have one mounted, (somewhere), would you be kind enough to share some pictures with the class?

From another post.

Here is my install. With wire disappearing under plastic heading for frunk no one is likely to mess with it.

Recently working on the bike I took the camera off the mount. The clip broke taking the camera out. Might want to make sure you have backup to catch lens if clamp fails.

That's a good spot, if I had some crash bars.

Easy problem to solve.

Put mine under the beak. No clearance issues what so ever, great field of view.

If anyone needs help modifying their configuration file, I'll be glad to assist.

Did you get the 90 or 120deg lens?

Battery or capacitor version?

 

[Fuzzy]

90 degree which is plenty wide angle and battery. Don't recall capacitor being available.

I also have the 90° with battery. I can't recall specifics, but remember reading unfavorable reviews of the capacitor version. Field of view is a little narrow with the 90° lens, but more detail. I think for dashcam use, the narrow lens is better, for capturing scenery, wider would be better. If you want pretty footage though, I'd recommend another camera. It captures very clear footage, but it's rather underwhelming aesthetically.

I'm just about ready to install mine. Any other contributors to the thread (pic)?

No offense but I don't want to install it on my crash bar. If looking for a more inconspicuous location.

 

[Antarius]

I'll take a few pictures of my install. Sorry for the sideways pictures.



You could probably also consider installing it inside one of the air duct thingies.

Under the display and after the windscreen is ideal. No need to clean the lens. Keep the control unit in the frunk.

Only issue I have now is that the recording stops as soon as the engine is kicked over. Works perfect under switched power, turning the engine on causes it to go to standby. Maybe a fuse issue? hmmm, still investigating.

How does that work at night with the glare off the windscreen?

Not sure, actually. Next time I get some night riding in, I'll post a pic/vid

 

[Antarius]

Sweet, thanks.

 

[ricksride]

Thanks!
This is where I'll be mounting mine, (when I buy one )

 

[Antarius]

Nice! Hope ya'll like it.

The one "issue" I have noticed is on bright sunny days the white balance tends to be a tad off, creating a slightly blue hue sometimes. As I intend on this being a method to protect my investment from fraud, I don't care so much about that. To some, it may be an issue.

When mounting on the crash bar does the recorded video show the bike? I would love to mount it behind the windscreen but mine is dark smoked.

 

[JDE]

I haven't received mine yet, but I currently have a SJ4000 camera mounted on my crash bars. Yes, it gets the bike in the shot. I see part of the beak and front fender in each video. Plus I get lots of high frequency vibrations, most noticeable at night with very shaky lights and reflectors.

Edit..

Here's a link to the only video I have uploaded to YouTube so far. Again, not the C3, but another camera mounted on the crash bar just so you get the idea of the field of view. CAUTION turn the volume down!! It's kinda loud right next to the engine.
