BMW Motorrad presents the Navigator VI. The perfect partner for pleasurable motorcycle tours.

Munich. BMW Motorrad presents the new Navigator VI,
available from March 2017 alongside the existing Navigator V,
comprising a new navigation system with numerous innovative features
in addition to further enhanced functionality. The new system retains
the same external dimensions as before, as well as the 5″
display, which, thanks to the inclusion of a circular polarisation
filter, now benefits from enhanced readability, particularly in strong
and even direct sunlight.

Not only has the internal storage capacity been increased from 8 GB
to 16 GB (for the EU/US; the device with no preinstalled maps still
has 4 GB), but the new Navigator VI now offers the “Winding
roads” route option for avoiding built-up areas, providing the
roads and conditions allow. Another new feature available for
computing routes is “Avoid main roads”. Used in conjunction
with the existing “Avoid motorways” function, selecting the
most suitable roads for motorcycling is now even better. The
“Round Trip” function configures trips based on time,
distance or interim destination, offering one more new way of creating
a highly individual and intensive motorcycling experience. With the
“Natural Guidance” function, navigation instructions also
provide precise descriptions of the surroundings.

The new “Music Streaming” feature, which works in
conjunction with Bluetooth, makes it possible to listen to music
stored on a smartphone. Even compatible action cams can be controlled
directly through the Navigator VI. The comfortable and intuitive
operation of all the controls that are typically needed while riding
can be model-specifically enabled using either the four-button mount
cradle or the multi-controller on the handlebars. Additional functions
such as the “My Motorcycle” pages as well as warning and
status messages are available in conjunction with the navigation
preparation. Traffic congestion and weather reports can be displayed
in real time using the optional Garmin Smartphone Link App. With all
future updates of preinstalled map data available free of charge plus
an optional car installation kit, the new BMW Motorrad Navigator VI is
the perfect companion for people on the road.
