Ever wished you had proof when a car cut you off? Or missed capturing that epic mountain ride? A motorcycle dash cam does both—while keeping you safe. Think of it as your bike’s "black box," but way cooler.
In short: This guide explains what dash cams are, how they work, and why riders swear by them. Plus, pro tips for picking the right one.
Why Riders Love Dash Cams
- Safety first: Footage can prove fault in accidents (no more "he-said-she-said").
- Ride replay: Save scenic routes or track your riding skills.
- Theft deterrent: Visible cameras scare off thieves (Pro tip: Pair with a KeepFeel GPS for extra security).
How Motorcycle Dash Cams Work
- Recording: Films front/rear views (some even record inside your helmet).
- Loop recording: Overwrites old footage so you never run out of space.
- Auto-save: Locks clips during crashes or hard braking.
