Motorcycle Dashcams: Choosing a Camera for Your Bike

A dedicated motorcycle dashcam should tolerate exposed installation and start recording with the bike. Prioritize weather-rated cameras, secure wiring and controls you can use with gloves.

A motorcycle dashcam is designed to become part of the bike rather than sit on a car windshield. The most useful systems use separate front and rear lenses, a protected recorder and ignition-linked power so recording does not depend on remembering an action camera.

Common questions

Questions before you buy

Can you use a car dash cam on a motorcycle?

A car camera may not be weatherproof or suited to motorcycle vibration and exposed wiring. A purpose-built bike system is the safer fit for permanent installation.

Is a motorcycle dashcam better than a helmet camera?

A wired dashcam can start automatically and record both ends of the bike. A helmet camera follows your viewpoint but depends on charging and may face local mounting restrictions.

Where should motorcycle dash cameras be mounted?

Mount the lenses on stable points with clear views, away from steering, suspension, exhaust heat and road debris. Use the manufacturer's brackets and routing guidance.

Will a motorcycle camera drain the battery?

It can if the power system is installed or configured incorrectly. Use compatible ignition-switched or protected hardwire equipment and follow the published cutoff instructions.
