GPS / Navigation

If you’re of a certain age you may remember a character from the Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons named Peter “Wrongway” Peachfuzz, a bumbling ship’s captain who somehow managed to navigate to the wrong place in every episode. Well, back when we all used paper maps (remember those days?) many of us probably felt like Capt. Peachfuzz at times. “How did I miss that turn and end up 110 miles off course?” Nowadays, thanks to GPS navigation, no one EVER gets lost! (Hahaha… well, almost never.) While the reliability of GPS has made maps practically obsolete, there is still one curve you need to be careful not to miss: the learning curve. But motorcyclists love curves, right? Since today’s devices are easier than ever to operate, this one’s a breeze. The BMW Navigator VI by Garmin is a feature-rich unit designed specifically for use on BMW motorcycles. It installs and functions easily on most models because the two were made for each other! Learn more about the BMW Nav VI, other Garmin GPS units, and related accessories here on this page. Got a question? Then navigate your way to a phone and call us! Even if your nickname is “Wrongway,” the staff at Bob’s BMW can put you back on course toward a GPS buying decision that’s right for you.

Whether you run a dedicated Garmin GPS device or you prefer to use the navigation app on your smartphone, you still need some type of cradle or protective holder so that you can operate it safely while also watching the road. Many newer BMWs are factory-equipped with the ideal GPS support apparatus, but if your bike isn’t, you don’t have to roam far to find what you need. Go back to Farkle/Gadgets, look under the sub-headings ‘Device Mounts/Cases’ and ‘Plugged In’ to browse our great selection of navigation mounting accessories and connection wiring — by Wunderlich, ZTechnik, RAM Mounts, Powerlet, and others.

BMW motorcyclists have always been able and willing to explore just about anywhere on the planet. Now, with BMW Navigator VI GPS and the other GPS devices and accessories available at Bob’s BMW, riders can be sure exactly WHERE they’re exploring — and how to get home again!
