Power bank for powering dash cam when car is off

I'm getting my Limited next week. I'm running front and rear dash cams. I plan on plugging them into a power bank under the seat that will run them when the car is off, then charge then bank when it's on so it doesn't run down the 12v battery in the car.

Anyone have a recommendation for a power bank that can charge from the car and run the cameras at the same time?

Odd vibration started at 9k miles

My '21 CRF300L Rally has run flawless since day one. I'm lucky enough to never have had the '5k buzz' or anything like that.

The problem is that I've picked up a weird vibration that started recently. I just turned over 9k miles on the bike. I do oil changes yearly since I don't do anywhere near 8k miles in a year. The air filter was fairly dirty, so I replaced that. The spark plug is in great condition.

The vibration mainly happens between 4-5.5k RPMs. It almost feels like I'm lugging the engine a bit, even though I'm well over 3500 RPM. I don't let the engine get below 4k unless I'm starting from a stop. It just has that deep 'vibration' like I'm lugging it though. Not bad, but it's noticeable. Over 6k RPM, it smooths out.

I have no idea what this, or why it would wait until 9k miles to start happening.

Anyone have any ideas what would cause this?

Is a foam filter better than the stock paper filter?

I have a small shop MC mechanic that recommended I get a foam filter. He claims they are better because "all the racers use them."

Any truth to that? Any real data on good foam vs stock paper?

I'm getting my 2026 Limited in a few weeks. Today I stopped by the dealer and asked about a 2" receiver for it for my bike rack. He said that Hyundai doesn't offer ANY receiver, 1 1/2 or 2", for the 2026 Ioniqs because it negative effects aerodynamics.

Any suggestions on 2" hitches that will work with the 2026? I have no problem installing myself.

I'm getting my 2026 Ioniq 5 Limited in a few weeks. I know new Ioniqs come with a level 1/2 charger, but it's very basic from what I've read. I'd like to get a much better charger for the house and keep the basic one for traveling or as a backup. I already have 6/3 Romex run to a dedicated 50 amp breaker in my main panel for the hard wired charger.

I'd like to be able to track how much it's costing me to charge the car, how much energy per charge it's taking, etc. Any suggestions on which chargers do that?
