    A quick solution to the problem. I appreciate that Gil. I always wondered about just removing my nav mount and doing the same thing. Thanks for the step-by-step guide. That Bike is still looking good!

    I bought a quad lock full set up to do this on my GSA. A very good idea, thanks for sharing.

    Just tuck the protected plug into your fairing and it stays out of the way. Good job G.

      I did that after covering with electrical tape. I ordered the wireless mount as well so no more plug in and out.

    If the Connected ride app is running on the phone display will the wonder wheel still control the app now the cradle module is removed. Cant find any video of the connected ride app but navidated by the wonderwheel with the cradle removed. Am thinking to remove the small scetion of Nav Prep and place under the plastic to retain the wonder wheel function with the app. I understand the bike TFT with the wonder wheels still works. Cheers in advance

      Great question! I stopped using the connected ride app because it would drop my music and nav connections running on my iphone when in use via the wonder wheel. What a hassle it was. I do not miss it and hope that BMW's future navigation integrated with CarPlay.

    When it comes to riding mates. Gil don’t fool around. These Cats are some serious super slab burners and Apex Predators. We do, know how you like to ride Gil. 😂 Scalpel like through metro area traffic at sun up. 😮 Excellent fix! Smart man. Ride safe and often. ATGATT.

    What extra options do you get by buying and using the CR cradle or not? I don't get it?

    • @GBeWinginIt
      @GBeWinginIt  6 місяців тому

      Agreed. That’s another reason why I no longer consider BMW’s cradle. In time all manufacturers should use CARPLAY.

    Nice solution for the mount. You need to get the wireless charging head from quad lock so you don’t have to plug in a cable to charge all the time. I just got one recently and love it.

    What makes me sad is you have over 500 views (showing) and about 30 likes (showing). But from experience I know on some accounts when a viewer uses a smartphone, or PC without the algorithm filter removed, UA-cam only lets a certain amount of views/likes/dislikes information viewable for public consumption. Sad.
