Hope this helps with some of the issues any of us have been having with using the Husqvarna app for on motorcycle display navigation. Have fun and ride safe!
Nice! I haven’t used the display nav yet but I’m glad to know about the tricks to use it if needed. I’ve been using one of the motorcycle carplay/android auto portable units. They very between about $115-$300. Go by many different names. They are all the same. It mounts directly to the gps mount provided with the expedition. I needed slightly larger washers because the included ones were barley too small for that mount. The wiring works with stock wires that are under the gps mount. The screen sits perfect above the display unit. It gives me actual turn by turn with a map displayed with google or apple maps. Will also show a track to follow on Gaia. If out of cell range. Make sure offline maps are loaded for the area. I used this on the OR BDR-X with both google and Gaia. Music apps will also work. If using headset. Phone and headset both need to be connected to carplay unit. Every thing can be controlled while my phone is in my pocket and it auto connects when the bike is turned on. Love this setup. Keep the videos coming. Nice garage!!!
I love that. Can you shoot a link for the unit you purchased? It seems like there are dozens on Amazon, but tough to know which to go with. The more I'm using the nav feature, I'm finding that not all gravel roads and trails can be found on Husqvarna's app. That's really frustrating. Stuff that is easily found on Apple Maps. Thanks for the insight and the video view!
I too struggled to get my Expedition to connect to my phone. The dealer told me at the time I picked up the bike (middle of June) that Norden is working on an update to the software (the bike side I believe) that will make things easier down the road. I still have 200 miles until my first service, so hopefully they will have the upgrade by then and can set it up for me. PS I agree the Expedition is an insanely good adventure bike. After riding it for a week, I told my friend that if someone gave me a blank check and said get any bike you want, the Expedition would be my pick. My journey to my Expedition began with zeroing in on a Triumph Rally Pro, then pulling back to a Tenere 700. I was days away from putting down the deposit when I saw the Expedition. Two emails and an hour later my deposit was in.
I agree sir, its probably the best looking adv bike out there, striking appearance, i have following this husky for awhile, really would like to own one myself👊🏽😎🔥‼️
You’re right on the money. The same with the KTM890 (of course…). After you pair the device to the bike, you need to connect the Bluetooth every time you use the “KTM/Husky My Ride” app. Otherwise is so frustrating and no one at the dealer website mentions it. Well done explaining it with your video.
Great job explaining that, I didn't know it could do that. Looking at an adventure bike and this is on the list! Oh also do a video on the garage storage or lifts?
Thanks! And happy shopping for a new ride! I'll do one on the lift and mezzanine upcoming for sure. I did one on cabinets and storage if that's of interest. It's one of the few I've done on the channel. But please let me know if there is something different you'd like to see on storage. Thanks again!
Well fubar, that didn't work either.☹️ Something apparently doesn't jive between my phone's Bluetooth and the bike's. It keeps showing the connection going on and off so the app won't connect. On a different note, both my helmets' intercoms work flawlessly.
The luggage rack is a bit flimsy, so be aware of that. Otherwise great bike. Only issue I've had with mine was a random motor shut down the first 700 km.
Wow, motor shutting down? That's rough. What was the fix? And I agree on the luggage attachments. My buddy, drilled a couple of holes inside the bag (small jeopardy to water tight) and zip tied them. This is obviously committing them to not being removable easily but it's worked for him.
@@EdenToyBarn I have not made any action towards the motor shut down issue. It happened at about 80 km and at 700 km (motor shutting down after I drop the throttle and engage the clutch). I now have about 3 000 km and it has not happened since. I suspect it is some cable being squeezed, triggering a false kill engine signal to the MCU, but I am not certain.
Ok, I have it! I paired/unpaired iphone with the bike at least 3 times and suddenly navi appeared on my screen. No idea what just happened but it works now ;)
We all hate subscription stuff like that for sure. Especially for what we pay for these bikes. Hate seeing KTM going down that path where the bikes are equipped with all features, but you have to pay subscriptions to unlock them.
I've been struggling will give your method a go App is working on phone but bike navigation will not highlight to enter so hopefully your method will get me set up at last
Hope you were able to make it work. I've heard from a few that have had to delete the app and reinstall it a t time or two before it would stop being grayed out. Thanks for the note!
Hi, just install the unit on a '22 Regular Norden, i don't even have the Nav menu, but i have the audio one. Is that a Explorer option for the navigation on screen?
Congrats on the new Expedition! I checked mine just now and I too am a basic plan (free) and it outlines the differences in Basic vs Premium when you click on settings and than Navigation in the app. Premium pricing shows as $5/month for me. And it's not required me to upgrade to use the nav on the bike screen.
Hello please I just get my expedition 2024 and doesn’t has the navigation in menu active I already connect my phone I make call from the bike menu but the navigation is grey I can’t enter 😢what is this means?
Great question! So, I lost signal, but maintained GPS and the nav continued. On my iPhone, when I'm out of service, I lose all of the bars, but either a small satellite shows in its place or it simply says GPS there. Hope that helps.
Dude . I don't want to alarm you but do you realise that when enter the search for directions to the sushi bar on your phone that you just showed viewers almost exactly where you live ... I'm not sure if that a great idea for the security of your possessions ... Potential thief's may view this video
