Very useful video, to help me to decide to have one Connected Ride. Is it possible to drag and drop the waypoints in the map too? I mean picking some unnamed waypoint to "force" a route through some secondary road?

If you use the Connected ride app you can press and hold to put a pin where you want in the map and then add it as a waypoint to a route...then sync the route to the navigator. As I sold my Navigator I have not tested it on the unit....but probably you can.

Sven thank you for taking the time to share, really appreciated. I have found this Navigator a huge improvement on the Nav 6 so my experience is positive. I have imported some GPX files for some rides in the summer which include Road and off road sections on some dirt tracks. Will this Navigator when we get to Spain try to recalculate the route as it does not recognise the off road sections and try to find an alternative route via roads rather than the dirt track? Thank you 🙏

Yes that is the case when I tested it. I am not aware about any software updates except the one released after the initial release. The GPS will try to make routes out of tracks. ie finding a routable way.

Good description. If you click on the keyboard icon on the search page in the Navigator you will have a complete keyboard instead of half a keyboard. When you are riding a route are you getting spoken directions through your comms?

Hi, thx for the video! Two questions. Is it possible to add a waypoint directly from a map? Is it possible to add "route shaping point" so it won't be present as your destination during the ride. thx
@thetubelesschannel
11 ай бұрын
Yes you may click on the map and save the place as a favorite. When on a route or editing the route you may add that favourite and the route is recalculated accordingly. You cannot use routes with route shaping point yet. That's the message the units gives if you try to import routes with shaping points.

Can you add random waypoints such us road spots selected directly from the map? Or everything has to be a POI / Favourite...?

hi I bought it and I found a problem ... you have always to swhich it off if you do not use the bike for a couple of days otherwise he remain in stand by position and the inside battery after 2 days is gone. to switch it you have to take out from the support and it is not so good for me.

yes I have experienced same, when ignition is off it counts down for shutoff but it seems like it starts again in stby. Have to remove from cradle and hold in the button on unit until you may choose shutdown. Something goes wrong and bmw has to iron it out.

Sven, do you have some experience creating routes on a pc and transfer it on the Navigator?
@thetubelesschannel
11 ай бұрын
Hi yes. I have tried to make routes in tourstart.org and then export. Tourstart have the option to select "export to ConnectedRide" and when doing that it works great. I save the file (which actually has a .gpx filename) to my storage cloud from the pc and then open it on my phone and select share and pick the Connected Ride App. It's then synced to the Navigator. It works great. But I have tried to do the same but export it to a GPX-file instead of a "ConnectedRide" file.... it does not work...

No. You will get the message that tracks are not supported. Which is very peculiar as a navigation system. It is only built for bmw standard and for nothing else. I keep my Navigator 6 instead.

This item is pure junk. It's the worst $900 I've ever spent on my R1250GSA! Save your money and get a Garmin XT2. Even with having to purchase an adopter for your cradle, you'll save hundreds of dollars and not have to beta test this crap. Screw the wonder wheel.
