INSTALLED ON 2019 HONDA GOLDWING.

GOT THESE 5 STARS EXCEPT THE CHIP IS LOCATED IN THE MAIN CONTROL UNIT AND HAVE TO REMOVE THE SEAT TO ACCESS IT. THE RADIO/RECORD SWITCH MUST BE ON.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Nothing

Good item for accessories

Advantages: Beautiful and compact, great picture, easy to install. Good customer service. Cons: m1 has no cloud service, I can't connect via hotspot. The cable for the fuse is too thin, I'm afraid it can get stuck in the battery compartment and break.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

The system just doesn't work

The system is installed but can't get the rear camera to work. The front camera turns on in the application after several connection attempts, but does not record. I prefer a full refund but it's a given and I'm pretty sure the seller won't consider a refund. No help from seller's website.

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Speed

Camera mounts uncomfortable

The camera works well. However, the dual camera mounts were very inadequate as they are mostly glued on. You'd better place them correctly the first time. If you don't, you'll need to order replacement mounts from another company, as Thinkware doesn't sell mounts for their cameras. If I had known that, I would have gone to another company for my cameras.

Pros
  • Handy thing
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model

Not as waterproof as advertised

I liked the idea behind this dash cam because of the sleek style, the sturdiness and the fact that it's really easy to connect. I've had it installed for almost a year now, and after nearly missing the one I was trying to record video with, I found that both cameras were out of order. The rear unit installed on the outside of my car was completely flooded with water and the front unit installed in the cabin had traces of moisture on the inner casing. Both cameras showed that the hull is indeedโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Crumpled

Very disappointed with WiFi and phone setup

I have no idea how this camera works because I can't get it to work on my phone. It worked once and never again. I followed the instructions exactly as described in the manual (the manual is completely outdated). First of all, it is a QR code to download the application. I did this and it lists about 10 models but not my M1. I tried all available models and none worked. I went online and was told that the M1 could no longer use the Thinkware Cloud app (although the QR code that came with theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Having problems

Easy to install Very high quality

I installed this system on a 2018 Goldwing Sport. The brain box fits under the left side panel and sits perfectly next to the battery on a small ledge so the seat cannot be removed to access the map. All cables run under the seat, front and rear camera cables have multi-pin professional quality waterproof connectors for video, the remote control is rigidly connected with a ribbon cable. I attached the controller to the right side frame just behind my foot. easily accessible while driving. Itโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Not sure

Where Oh Where to Mount

**Update** A little less than a year later the rear mount failed, the tape literally came off in the middle, one side was still stuck to the fender and the other side stuck to the bracket. The camera bounced around behind me until one of my buddies pointed it out, forcing me to perform an emergency roadside video endectomy. I'm waiting for an answer from the manufacturer because in general I really liked this camera with all its features. So far, this DVR has lived up to all the expectationsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Low repairability
