Nice expensive addition to your expensive Bike

Works very well, much better than the TFT display on the R1200GS (in that it actually connects to your phone and works, The Satnav is great, free updates for the life of the GPS, very bright display even in direct sunlight. As with most BMW products its very expensive but it works and works well.Read full review

rubbish compared to tomtoms

This a rubbish, seriously if you know anything about satnavs steer clear,
The routing is terrible. Windy roads are a joke. Why send me down a country road so small I can't get out of 2nd? Does it all the time. Fastest routes are a joke too. The safely camera functionality is so basic as to make it totally useless. Why tell me there once was a mobile camera on a road? That's every road around here, so can I turn off mobile camera alerts and just keep the fixed ones? Like I can on a tomtom? Nope of course I cant. So its either alerting in every road or not at all.

Only good points are a nice screen and the integration with my bike via the scroll wheel. That's nice but its meant to be a satnav so its a total fail

At £550 its £150 more than the top tomtom. Buy that instead. I'll selling this and getting one of those. They aren't perfect but they work. The traffic alerts are accurate to a few feet and steer me around jams. The NAv Vi on the other hand just alarms to tell me i'm sitting in traffic. No sh*t Sherlock.

Navigator VI very good if pricey.

Very expensive but also very good if not amazing in how it links to the BMW i-drive/wheel. "Curvy roads" not as good as TomTom "twisty route", but excellent graphics and relatively easy to use once you get used to it. Looses signal indoors much quicker than the tomtom. Overall very pleased with my purchase if slightly perplexed as to how one Motorrad dealer wants nigh on £700 whilst another can sell it for £575??Read full review

Great Sat Nav

Easy to set up with helmet & phone and packed with interactive features.
Overpriced just like all BMW gear.

Great piece of kit

Great piece of kit and good for loading on music to listen to. Had some issues getting the memory card into the correct format (FAT32) so that the unit would recognise the memory card; however, once that was done it was plain sailing.Read full review

Motorrad V1 satnav

Good interactive features if you have BMW’s satnav mount. Seem to be only able to charge via the bike mount. Tried via computer and electric socket but no joy.

Clear screen and easy to use

The BMW Navigator 6 replaced my trusty old Zumo 660.

The advantages are the apps that the Zumo didn't have, such as accessing data from a smartphone and remote control of Garmin Action Cams. The key advantage however is being able to control it from the BMW multicontroller on the handlebars and accessing information from the bike in real time.
The disadvantage is it hasnt got a speaker built in so its pointless in the car unless you have a bluetooth receptor.

Altogether its a nice well made product designed for my bike and is safer to use.

Marshall Bmw, The Nav 6 place to go!

It's an expensive version of a standard garmin product.

However, for a Bmw bike, it has the best functionality and usability of any sat-nav system on any vehicle! And that is what and why we all get one. Marshall bmw made it more affordable- I would strongly recommend them.Read full review

Fits nicely and works, does exactly what I need it to do!

Seems like a quality product, although in fairness I haven't used it a great deal as I haven't been on any long tours with it yet, just one 160 mile round trip and no problems.
