Removing the BMW Motorcycle Navigation Cradle 

This video is great. Thank you so much. I did this job in less than 10 mins!! Couple of tips: If you put the windscreen in approximately the half way up/down position you can just thread the cable out of the fairing without needing to unscrew anything. 2. If you rotate the cradle on the bar about 90 degrees it’s much easier to take out the 4 screws and catch them in your hand. Great video! Thank you!

I think the 'Dummy' is a splitter, for a USB socket. Just a wild guess. Also I think you was able to use the "dummy' connector's cover to cover the loos cable connector instead of the tape.

Thank you, this is the first video I've seen that shows how to remove the dust cover. I've had the bike 6 months and didn't know how to remove it.

Thanks for the help, just wish I'd watched before I removed all my side panels off 😂

Thank you very much. I was worried about the double plug, but thanks to your video I'm not afraid anymore. Vs.

Great video. I need to remove my cradle and thought it was going to be more complicated. Good to see that it’s pretty easy before I start installing my Chigee Apple car play unit. Thanks

Thank you bro!

Very cool video .... I'm putting my quad lock in it place as it has map's and other stuff

Thanks for the video! Do you know what that white connection is called? I want to connect something else to it.

Is there anything else that can be connected in that thing? Who the heck uses a single use gps screen? It’s not 1999

Dankeschön für das Video

Just bought my 2023 GSA last week. I’m going to remove the NAV cradle over the weekend. The BMW aftermarket cradle that costs $260 does not fit my iPhone 14 Max. The 3 cameras on the iPhone stick out too far to fully seat within the cradle, so off it comes. Ordered the Wunderlich cross mount with the NAV adapter. I will attach my Zumo to that. My cell is attached to the bar via the Quad Lock mount.

Why remove the cradle. If is great for mounting a nav or phone or CarPlay device. Without screwing around with wiring

Hello. I want to mount this cradle on my c400x. But I have a question. Does the key cylinder only works with the motorcycle key or does it fit any key? Also what does it lock?

I have the 2022 850GS, where this connector is stuck to the frame or frame shroud. I gave it a nudge or two, but it's not releasing the connector and since it is so tight over there. I am unable to see the push to release clip. Any ideas? Other than to remove the front fairing?

Is that type o plug available so I can connect other GPS on the factory wiring just like that?

I have sold my RT and want to move my Navigator 6 to my new bike, a 2023 Yamaha Super Tenere 1200. If you're not using your Nav cradle and want to offload it, I'd be happy to buy it off of you. :)

Did you consider purchasing the BMW Connected Ride adapter for your phone - which allows you to use the existing NAV cradle? What is your opinion of this device?

Hi, Do you intend to sell the cradle, I may be interested

But on 2022 F 850 GSA the cable from the cradle routes up under and into the TFT display. Not straighforward.

STupid location, most hate it and buy another setup for above the TFT or just a phone cradle i guess, I got the f750 , getting bar risers and will remove this thing too

I think about removing that thing daily. Its ugly, and useless.
