Navigation for KTM motorcycles

About this app

This app reads your phones turn-by-turn navigation notifications and sends them over Bluetooth to your KTM/Husqvarna motorcycle which displays them in the dashboard.
This has the advantage that you can use your favorite powerful map application without having to download any maps to your phone or having to get used to a new mapping app.

Instructions:
- pair the motorcycle via Bluetooth (if you have not done this before already)
- plan your route and start navigation in the mapping application
- start this app

- if you drive on the left side of the road: change the option inside settings to display roundabout correctly.

Requirements:
Your KTM must be My Ride Navigation compatible (unfortunately the 250 and 390 Duke are not compatible :().

Tested with a 2019 KTM 790 Adventure and a current version of google maps but also works on the 390 Adventure and 1290 Super Adventure and the Husqvarna Norden 901.

Problems:
Please check that in you android settings -> apps -> (google)maps -> notifications -> navigation is enabled.

Ratings and reviews

This app works great with my 790S. Initially took me a while to figure it out because of there being no instructions on the platforms you download it from. My only advice would be to list the steps that you need to follow to get it up and running, instead of plowing through the other reviews. All that aside, be aware this is freeware that does not mine your personal data . Marius has put a lot of time and effort into this. Show some support for him and buy some stars from the app!

Working great (890 adventure)! It does sometimes take a minute for the sync to show up on the dash when you are first starting (the first turn out of your starting location). Other than that, sometimes I have to restart the app to ensure it is properly sync'd. Solid performance, though.

Works when the official app wouldn't. I have a 2021 KTM 390 adventure, and the official app wouldn't recognize its VIN. This app was simpler, quicker, and just worked. Connect to the bike with bluetooth, set the destination in your GPS, then open this and it just works. Simple nav on the bike's TFT. Not as good as a live overhead map, but it works good enough.
