Always up-to-date The Navigator VI (Nav 6) does much more than just tell you the way, allowing you to experience magical biking tours. Its large 5-inch touchscreen is the way to boundless driving pleasure. The display's circular polarisation filter (CPOL) minimises reflections and improves contrast, thereby ensuring optimal readability even during direct sunlight. In this way you can maintain an overview at all times. The optional private vehicle assembly kit also enables multifunctional operation. In addition, the pioneering trip technology precisely determines the right way. The optional Smartphone link for real-time traffic information and up-to-date weather reports keeps you fully posted at all times.
Discover new routes Bikers are known for having heads of their own. The route planning software BaseCamp therefore allows you to compile routes that are customized and highly detailed. A trip can be divided into as many as 30 routes. Each segment in turn consists of up to 125 shaping points, thereby offering virtually endless personalisation options. Or do you prefer to just hit the road? The "Winding roads" option, the new "Avoid major country roads" feature and the "Round Trip" function for round trips by time, distance or stop-off points will enable you to experience entirely new worlds.
Guide "Turn left at the cathedral." Advanced TTS navigation prompts use the sort of statements your pillion passenger might make, meaning you will never lose your way.

You can also conveniently search for your destination with your smartphone and then simply send it to Navigator VI.

I’ve used numerous GPS devices over the years. This unit is by far the easiest to use and both my wife and I have one on each of our bikes now.
Bought one a few years ago and was happy to find it still a current offering. The original one still works like a charm and has outlived many others.
Highly recommended.
Bit pricy but you get what you pay for.
I wasted substantially more money on testing the “cheaper” units than what it would have cost for me to buy this one first.
