r/Motovlogging

Hey everyone, a genuine question from people who post riding content online.

I ride in NYC and sometimes filter/split through traffic. I’ve been thinking about posting more motovlog-style clips, but I also show my face pretty often on my channel, and if someone really wanted to, they could probably identify my bike/license plate too.

For those of you who post riding content:

- Do you avoid posting lane filtering/splitting clips entirely?

- Do people blur plates/faces or just not care?

- Has anyone actually had law enforcement contact them over videos posted online?

- Do cops/departments actively look through motorcycle content, or is that mostly internet paranoia?

- Is it different in NYC specifically?

- Do you delay uploads or avoid posting locations/timestamps?

I know tons of riders post this stuff online, especially on YouTube/Instagram/TikTok, but I’m curious what the actual risk level is from people with real experience.

Not asking for legal advice - just trying to understand how careful people are in practice.

So I bought the DJI mic mini for my gopro 13 black and I have been able to get it connected and working at home but everytime I go riding it seems like it starts recording using the mic on the camera and all I get is wind noise still. Any idea what I should do?

Hi everyone, I’m quite new to the motovlogging game and have planned a 6-week trip later this year. I would love to have 3 points of data redundancy with solid state drives that are IP rated. Has anyone here done a trip for several weeks that needed to back up considerable amounts of data while away? What type of drives did you use? Any links to Youtube videos that might help explain data management on extended trips would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hey guys I’m new to this whole motovlogging thing and want to get into it, I need a microphone but it can’t be a 3.5mm one it has to be usb C and I can’t find anything on Amazon that reasonably priced and has good reviews for what I need, anyone got anything they use?
