Easiest way, would be to connect via phone app and download clip.

The camera and DVR will get warm when running. The metal case acts as a heatsink. Once on your motorbike there will be a constant flow of air to help dissipate the heat.

I have recently used my K6 in Southern Italy with no heat issues.

Hi Simon

If you have installed the K6 on motorcycle, you should be using the supplied power converter. This way the camera will start and stop recording with the ignition switch.

The Red cable needs to wired to be a permanent Live. The Black cable needs to be wired to a permanent Earth. The Yellow cable needs to be wired to a Switched Live.

Hi Stephen.

Unfortunately, the only way to download direct from the camera is to remove the rear plate and plug your PC directly into the USB connector beneath the camera. So not much of an improvement…

I agree it’s a bit of a design flaw.

I’ve had my K6 for several years and never had issues with it not turning off.

I have a zzr1400, and was able to take a switched live from the accessories circuit. Many people use a feed from the tail-light. It might be wise to ask on a forum dedicated to your model of motorcycle to get advice on which wires to use.

If you use USB power, you will have to stop the k6 recording before switching off bike ignition.

Hi Bernhard.

Unfortunately there isn’t a better manual.

I would definitely recommend installing the power converter instead of powering via USB. The power converter will correctly switch on and switch off the K6, which will avoid corruption to the sd card.

If the USB power is lost whilst the camera is still recording, the k6 will not be able to finalise the video file, and may corrupt the recording.

The k6 will always record separate front and rear videos. But can display individually or combined within the app. You will always have access to the individual files though.

Hi Kev.

What app are you using watch the video? Is this on your phone or computer?

Can you see video live from the k6 using the Innovv app?

[adamgiles]

Hi Dean, have you connected the red and black wires to a permanent feed, and the yellow to switch live?

Sorry, not on a Z1000 so can’t really help with camera placement…

[adamgiles]

What spec is the sd card? What format are you recording in on front camera?

Also, how are you connecting the sd card to you computer?

[adamgiles]

Any digital camera will need to be stopped recording before power is removed. Otherwise files can’t be written and finalised correctly and so cards can become corrupted.

[adamgiles]

That’s just not how the K6 works.

Also, you would still need to manually stop the recording before power is disconnected in order to finalise the video file.

[adamgiles]

The USB version is intended for cycles, not motorcycle.

Hi David.

K6 should be capable of recording 2k on front camera, but if you are happy with 1080 then that’s great.

It will also allow more recordings before the sd card is full 👍

[adamgiles]

Did you format the sd card in the camera?

[adamgiles]

That seems about right.

And the picture interference is at the same point every time you play it back?

Just trying to confirm if it’s a playback issue or recording issue…🤔
