A demo showing why you might want to consider connecting your phone and helmet to a BMW GS TFT, no need to reach for the side of your helment anymore.
I should have mentioned that the BMW app also keeps track of the bikes mileage, fuel level, service intervals etc, so if you're sat at home and want to know how much fuel you've got, just open the app as it remembers from the last time it was connected to the bike, brilliant.
Applogies for the ending :-)

Great video - thank you

Press and Hold to return to main screen! I've had my 1250 gs for a year and a half and didn't know this. (or if I did, I'd forgotten all about it, happens like that to old guys!) Thanks!

@TwoWheelHustle Год назад

Glad you found this useful. Did you also know about the press and hold on the heated grips/seat button? Turns them on/off so saves you having to wind them down to 0 each time? Very handy.

@m.f.m.67 Год назад

@@TwoWheelHustle No. I always go into the menu. I'll give that a try as well. Seems this bike has more shortcuts than an Apple computer keyboard! Thanks for the tips.

This video is a year old now, I've got everything connected on screen as you do but no music coming through my helmet. Iphone to TFT/ Cardo Spirit to TFT all looks good but no audio.

@leeh6816 Год назад

Really helpful video thanks. Does the tft only control/play music on Apple Music or does it work with Spotify?

@TwoWheelHustle Год назад

You can use any music app, Amazon Music, Spotify etc, you need to load it first and start playing and then hit pause, once it’s connected to the bike you can hit play on the TFT and it will continue.

Thanks for this video! One question, can you control your navigation on your phone in the BMW ConnectedApp with the multicontroler? Or do you have to have the BMW Cradle connected in order to do that? Thanks!

@TwoWheelHustle Год назад

Thanks for the feedback. You do need the BMW Cradle for that.

@photorowe6062 Год назад

Nice video.... Have you been able to have the zumo xt do voiceover directions with your setup?

@TwoWheelHustle Год назад

Thanks. Yep, I have my Zumo paired to another Bluetooth channel on my Sena and I get voice prompts, although 90% of the time I have them muted as they can get annoying.

I still had them odd drop out out on iphone on my new 2023 so use a wifi only android as a bike phone. Interested to know if you use a music app for media etc (spotify?) or if you had tried using media whilst you had Nav running ? Cheers Ride safe 👍🏻

@duncable1 Год назад

What are you doing with pairings with the Zumo XT since you run it for bigger outings?

@TwoWheelHustle Год назад

I have the Zumo paired to my phone so I get traffic data. I have paired the Zumo to my Sena for voice prompts but they annoy me so I disabled that. 😄

@stuipooey1 Год назад

What media app are you using for music, i can only play whats already selected on my phone and dont see any tracklisting or album art whether its spotify or music downloaded to my phone

@TwoWheelHustle Год назад

I'm using the built in Apple Music app.

@stuipooey1 Год назад

@@TwoWheelHustle thanks, i found out it only works with iphone and Apple music. A bit dissapointed that BMW couldnt sort out a version for android, all we get is whatever is playing on your device, no track listing or album artwork

@timwilson8553 Год назад

We as a group use sena mesh and I have garmin xt everytime voice prompts cuts mesh I've missed half a conversation before mesh reconnects. Music won't play with mesh. It's just a mine field of connections.

@TwoWheelHustle Год назад

Yea I had exactly the same issue so I turned off voice prompts.

@Carlnewman68 Год назад

I have the update on tft but still have it confused so I’ve deleted everything, and need to re pair the Cardo , so can you help me , is it Cardo to TFT and phone to TFT only ? And I I wright Cardo is to the riders helmart? Carl uk , Nottingham

@TwoWheelHustle Год назад

Cardo is helmet so connect that to Rider 1, your phone connects to Phone on the TFT. Do not have your phone connected to the Cardo as this will cause confusion and the audio may not work correctly.

@Carlnewman68 Год назад

@@TwoWheelHustle thank you . I will sort that this morning

@ad78 Год назад

The helmet paired to rider should be paired as “gps” so you can still use siri. Same thing as on the passenger helmet.

@andrewbooth4341 Год назад

The only trouble with connecting this way is that you lose the Siri function on your cardo or Sena. With my connected app I connect phone to headset and phone to tft. I don’t connect the headset on my helmet to the bike. This way you still get the connected app side of everything but you can say hey siri play whoever you want to play or hey siri call whoever which is a lot faster and easier than using the wonder wheel.

@TwoWheelHustle Год назад

I used to use Siri before I got the GS, it worked well with my old Cardo and low speed but once the wind noise increased it wouldn’t work, I now use Sena and this is pretty bad at detecting any voice commands.

@MikeGilroyAK Год назад

whats that GPS button next to wheel?

@TwoWheelHustle Год назад

It’s the remote for a Innovv K3 camera system. Highly recommend 👍

@ryanmalone2681 Год назад

I love my GS, and tried it so many ways, but connecting to the bike loses way more features than it gains. I gave up. It’s rubbish unless you only have the most simple and basic requirements.

@TwoWheelHustle Год назад

You shouldn’t loose any features, what do you mean?
