Great, so all the evidence is nicely bundled for the police in one easy place ....

At the end of the day, if the Police feel the need to go digging to that depth then you are already in serious trouble.....

Just installed the app and downloading a few maps, looks Ok so far.

Except.... does anyone know how to change the units to imperial? I would have thought it would mirror the bikes settings but no....and I can't see anywhere to change this in the app.

Thanks

and just as I type that.... I find it, Doh!

I've had some seriously erroneous info coming up on the recording with me jumping from road legal speeds to a bit of off-roading at 112mph & back down to normal... in a nice fast bend too. As such it wouldn't take much to discredit it if it ever came to using it as evidence of anything. They struggle for a conviction if a dedicated speed camera doesn't have a calibration certificate. Conversely, if you got knocked off it could be used to prove that it's likely you weren't doing a ridiculous speed & "came from nowhere!".

I did think it was reading speed off the speedo but the observation above points towards a GPS based speed... but when I check roads where I know what speed the bike was reading (33 in a 30) it's recorded the same even though I've checked & according to the GPS (& every speed reading sign I've passed) it's 3mph out at that speed... strange.

I can counter that with a Nav VI altitude reading of 33,000 ft on a recent afternoon ride. Very accurate

Here's a screenshot of app taken July 15, 2020 on 11 mile stretch of US129 at Tennessee/North Carolina border. Was recorded on my '19 GSA. This stretch of road is very technical. Recorded a few ABS events.

I have the opposite problem:
I hit 190 after overtaking somebody, but the app wasn't running on my phone so I have no proof. 🥺🥺🥺🥺

There was no perception of ABS interference. With this app the ABS could have been a DTC event also. In Dynamic Pro mode, there is less ABS interference as well as "slight wheelie" possible with DTC.

Our technique is solid.

Notice "Our" technique is solid. There's 2 in the MrVvrroomm family that can tax the electronic intervention of a GS, or an RS.

With ABS Pro it does stuff in the background that you wouldn't know was happening. It's adjusting between the front & rear brakes to optimise your braking & lessen the likelihood of a problem, & it records that as an intervention. I get 2 ABS & 2 TC interventions each 20 mile trip on average, but haven't felt a thing from either yet.

I did pull up at the lights a bit sharpish last week & my hazards had turned on... oops

In other news I did 19.9 miles with the GPS switched off this morning. It recorded exactly the speed indicated on the clock & it's exactly the same distance as with the GPS on, so I guess it takes all the data from the bike rather than real-world from the GPS... which is a bit of a shame considering both data-streams are available. The speed compensations for the GPS tracking errors still doesn't make sense, but hey-ho.
