GPS & Video Mounts

The BMW Navigator mount was designed to enable mounting the traditional BMW Navigator GPS using a BMW Four Button cradle or a BMW Locking cradle (cradles & locks sold separately through BMW) onto the 2021 and later R 1250 RT-P models with TFT display. Also works with Garmin Zumo (select the 4-button cradle for this application). Not compatible with SAT radio antenna - if desired on unit with SAT radio antenna, antenna will need to be relocated* from the dashboard to the rear of the motorcycle for best reception. A new RFI shield has been developed to block much of the RF interference from the TFT display that was affecting the accuracy of the GPS signal (order separately below). Note: It has been reported that the Touratech GPS locking mounting cradle is heavier than the BMW cradles and may cause "bouncing" of the display.

New RFI shield developed to block much of the RF interference from the TFT display that was affecting the accuracy of the GPS signal. Shield is powder coated steel with a blunt edge molding facing the rider. The laser-cut shield has the same bolt hole pattern as the FMS BMW NAV mount and can be used with either BMW cradle or with the Garmin mount.

Many riders trying to connect a GPS to the motorcycle have no access to a controlled power supply. One relatively easy access point is the BMW power socket. FMS has created several special "Y" connection harnesses to tap into the BMW power socket, which is a BC controlled power line rated at 5A. Two versions of this connection harness have been created, connection to the BMW Power Socket mounted on the RH knee panel area. Note that removal of the knee panel is required for installation. Additionally, a mating BMW GPS plug is offered for those that have a BMW GPS plug on their motorcycle but need a mating connector for their non-BMW GPS.
