Ratings and reviews

Lots of checks to do but works. Room for improvement. Must use a good data compatible phone lead for connecting to my Yamaha Tracer 9GT+. WiFi connection won't give you weather or traffic updates. On the lead connection, I've not had a problem. For me, just practise all the setting and it does everything I want on a sat nav for motorbike you just have to find them in the settings. Could do with a makeover.

Took a while to get it working but USB is best connection. Once Bluetooth is paired it remembers and it all works. Still don't fully understand but start Apps on bike first then USB (& Bluetooth on) then My Ride link, then start Motorize, put in post code, then press button on bike for a few seconds to cast the phone image to the bike TFT. Good to go and didn't crash for me over several hours use. Easy once you've got it, but a frustrating learning process !! No Exit button in app??

As with all things app based, it won't be supported in a year or two, rendering the whole thing obsolete. Garmin has done all this before with nav units. Spotify support was dropped for the Zumo. They should be sued. Advertise a product, then discontinue the service you have paid for. I wanted the built-in Garmin unit, which restricted me to Yamaha, which is not a bad thing as I think they build excellent bikes. Garmin aren't doing you any favours Yamaha. You need to talk to them.
