I like what you are doing to the f750. I'm 76 years old and ride a Victory Cross country Tour but it is getting too heavy and would like a f750 with all the mods you have done. great job
The wind screen isn't much better on an 850. The gps position and even the tft screen position is too far below the eye-line of my helmet. :/ The relocation bracket for the GPS is at least a good compromise.
Read the owners manual. If will tell you how to slide the front case off the nav prep. You would do that to mount the Nav VI onto it anyway. Now that you have the cover off, you can unscrew those 4 bolts and CAREFULLY disassemble the 3 parts of that nav holder. Be very careful that you don't let the 4 locking nuts on the bottom fall into the cracks on your bike.
@@DileoFilms I recommend buying a cheap magnetic screw/nut dish and having that sitting under the assembly when you do this, more likely that something falling, will drop into it if you're worried about this.
Hey Adam, thanks for this video. Perhaps a silly question but do you happen to know if this bracket is compatible with most windscreens? I've got a Wunderlich Marathon on mine and it would be a shame if the bracket doesn't fit behind the screen.
It'll work with a lot of windscreens. I believe on the Fx50GS forums there are a few posts about the navigation bracket and people posting photos. Might help you get the answer you need.
Hi Adam, I want to reroute the nav bracket cable. I've disconnected the white plug from the black socket. The white plug is held somehow on the fairing. Can it be removed using long nose pliers by pulling towards the rear of the bike?
When I did my install, I did not unhook the GPS cable. I didn't have much confidence on not breaking it since it seemed pretty stout. I bet if you searched RU-vid for "remove GPS Prep R1200GS" that will have the same setup and much more of those bikes out there with the same cable setup.
@@AdamChandler86 Perfect; that’s the poşnt I would like to learn, I mean GPS PREP is coming with install. The issue is in Turkey; seller is telling me that for GPS PREP we need to pay extra!
Hi sorry but can you please tell me how do you install the pushstar and the rest of the stuff like the cruise control on the left side???? Because I bought a bmw 750gs 2020 with out it. Please.
I know you can retrofit cruise control and other things after purchase but you'll have to purchase those parts from BMW and I believe after the high cost of the switches (200-300 USD), you will need some software coding.
I coulnd’t find a shorter version Fair point. Heather is pretty short and hasn’t complained yet but I’ll see what she thinks. I’ts roughly the same height as BMW’s OEM solution that’s now available.
Adam, thanks for posting these. I just got the F750 and your videos are extremely helpful. I noted the bracket kit comes with two (2) mounting bars. Which one did you end up using for the GPS cradle? Thanks,
Hi Adam, this looks very neat. I notice that this mount is primarily for smartphones. How does it bear up with heavier Garmin unit? Does it vibrate? Thank you.
