Staying connected with BMW Motorrad: communication and riding fun without compromise.

Munich. BMW Motorrad simplifies wireless
communication between motorcyclists with two new products. The new
Fit-for-All communication system can be integrated
into virtually any helmet. Connecting this up to the new
Bike-to-Bike communication module also allows group
communication with other motorcyclists.

The BMW Motorrad Fit-for-All communication system enables riders
to stay in contact with each other, to listen to their favourite
music, to conduct phone conversations and to stay on course with the
BMW Motorrad Navigator. The new Fit-for-All system fits all BMW
motorcycle helmets (except the BMW Motorrad Bowler helmet) and can
also be integrated into a number of current helmets by other
manufacturers. The Fit-for-All starter kit is offered in addition to
the already available BMW Motorrad communication systems.

The helmet-independent communication system has been conceived
as a rider-passenger communication system, however, it can also be
extended to communicate with up to six motorcyclists in private mode
using the Bike-to-Bike communication module. The Fit-for-All system is
also compatible with already existing BMW Motorrad communication systems

The range between two bikes extends up to 300 metres when the
Bike-to-Bike communication module is used. In a group, distances of up
to two kilometres can be bridged under optimum conditions. Riders can
choose between a private and a public mode using an app which is free
of charge. In public mode more than six motorcycles can be connected.

The Fit-for-All communication system can be comfortably operated
using three buttons. Different button combinations enable easy pairing
with the intercom system, volume control, switching on and off as well
as access to a configuration menu. The operating unit is located on
the left side of the helmet and is both UV-resistant and weatherproof.

Apart from the wireless voice connection between rider and
passenger, the Fit-for-All system enables communication with other
bluetooth-capable devices. This means that BMW Motorrad Navigator
instructions can also be received. Phone conversations are also
possible if a suitable smartphone is along for the ride. The same
applies to playing music over the BMW audio system or compatible end
devices – also for the passenger. The automatic suppression of noise,
the clear music playback and the high speech quality ensure a pleasant
communication experience while riding. Operation is possible for up to
8 hours without recharging (560 mAh).
