Just get a cheap GoPro copy for under $40 and set it to record continuous loop.
can GoPro (genuine or copy) save files if there is an accident? some dedicated dash cams have a force/acceleration sensor that automatically save the files if you get into an accident. Cameras without this feature may overwrite the files, if you have a low capacity microSD card and if no one is aware of the camera to save the files. I could imagine that in a severe accident the first responders take care of the victim and no one things ot check the bike/car for dash camera to prevent overwriting.
A good dash cam can be had for $40-60. especial if you do not need one heat resistant. On the other hand a dash cam may not be dust/water proof.
