I’ve done some more testing to see what triggers a parking mode recording:
What doesn’t work: sitting on the seat, shoving the motorcycle from the sides, grabbing the handlebar and rocking the motorcycle side to side, moving the motorcycle backwards and forwards.
What does work: a solid, hard knock with the a clenched fist on most of the frame near the battery compartment (e.g. passenger footrest bracket) where the DVR is located.
This is at the highest G-Sensor level with the latest firmware (IK7.2040705.V3) and latest Android app (1.0.28.20241014) on a Pixel 7 (Android 14).
From my testing, I assume that most impacts from cars would trigger a parking mode recording. However, it seems to be me that parking mode is otherwise quite insensitive, especially if it can’t detect the motorcycle being forcibly rocked side to side.
