Thanks for this, I mounted the same kit to my1250 RS earlier this year and it makes the ride so much safer can't understand the BMW engineer's idea of placing the GPS where it is on the std. bike... By the way, I did the same as you with the circlip and found it a day later ;)
Thank you for this video, it is very useful. Could you please advise your height and how much view of the TFT is obstructed by the nav in this setup when you ride the bike? Thanks in advance!
Excellent video both this and the handle bar risers. I have seen a warning on a different set of risers saying they dont work with SatNav relocate kit. Any issues with your set up. Thanks
@@windyrun7979 Hi. I went with the Hornig risers. My bike already had standard risers, but as the warnings said, they don't work with the relocation bracket. The clutch reservoir fowls on the underside of the SatNav. The Horning and Moto-Mate combination are spot on
Nice informational video! Thank you for the input! Just wondering if you have the handlebar raisers or this is the fit with the stock handlebar mount, without risers. Drive safe! /Marian
@@aussievmax Thank you for the answer! I am also considering mounting the GPS up there! Good to know that it might work with the raisers! Drive safe! /Marian
Hi. Is it centered with the TFT when viewing it from the riding position? I had assumed it was but is it?

Thank you very much for sharing the video of the installation. I've been looking at all the models on the market for a long time, and this is one of the ones I like the most. I have a doubt. I see that once the bar is in place, it has screws below that press into the screen support. Do those screws have any protection to avoid scratching? Are they also used to adjust the angle, or are they just to fix the bracket? Thanks
They just firm up the bracket, it has foam pads, there is only a small amount of adjustment at that point. You would have to pull it off to see if it leaves any marks. Out of slight at that point so I don’t think it would be a big deal.
Nice show and tell for those of us interested in relocating the ridiculously placed GPS mount. Really don't know what BMW was thinking. At the very least, I would have thought the marketing department would have said, "Hey wait a minute, the mount placement blocks our logo, that's bad branding and not cool with us." Anyway, a bit of an update ask from me. After installing and riding around for the last year, how is it? Any downsides of this brand after you put it to use in the real world? In advance, thank you for any insights you can share.
Hi, no problems with the mount, it’s in a much better spot and easy to see, riding over bumps you do get a small initial shake but not enough to bothered me.
@@aussievmax Thank you for responding, very helpful. I'll probably pick one up this coming Spring. I just installed the Black Titanium Akrapovic on my 2020 R 1250 RS. I made a video about the install for my UA-cam Channel "Texas2Tires". If you're interested, here's the link: ua-cam.com/video/jBSlHV0P7CQ/v-deo.html
I've bought this riser in order to locate my phone in a "chinese" mount above the oem cradle. Would I need any metalic bar from the oem to fix the cradle to the riser mount?
Sorry can’t agree with this move, what you do when you move the navigator up like this, is that you kill the view of what is happening and what is in front of your bikes wheel. Let it sit where it sits and connect it via wifi to the communication system in the helmet. Than you don’t need to look at it, just listen to the sweet voice of a women that sounds more and more hysteric if you don’t do what she tells you to do 🙂 ps I’m jealous of your color.When I ordered mine 2 weeks ago it had expired for the 2021 modell, so I bought the blue one......
Does it bounce off the windscreen? I have a Wunderlich screen that looks to be about the size of your GIVI. Again it does move a bit more than the stock one so I do wonder about rubbing.
Can someone just eliminate the whole Nav Doc completely ? I would never buy the BMW nav system when my cell phone does a good job and takes half the space .

Thank you! Great video. I feel comfortable enough now to head on over to the garage and get it done.
Many thanks. Well done on describing details.
Thanks for sharing. A great piece of kit. A much better, safer sat nav position and probably easier to read while riding i guess.
It’s so much more usable, you can read it safely while riding.

I also did such an assembly
how it is with you - because when I screw the screws from the bottom, I have a hard time with the glass

Great mod.
Does that screen make much difference?
Hi , very nice job , but I have a question . The mount does not seems centered . But once fitted , is your gps centered or not ?
Definitely on the shopping list for the R1200RS. How do you like the Givi screen?
Useful - just to confirm, you don't refit the upper circlips ?
hola excelente video, y donde los compraste.. tienes la direccion ??
Excellent video both this and the handle bar risers. I have seen a warning on a different set of risers saying they dont work with SatNav relocate kit. Any issues with your set up. Thanks
No issues at all, they work well together
Which riser kit had the warning? The Hornig one?

Why hide beautiful handle bars?
can you let me know where to purchase? When I search on Moto-Mate I do not find it, Very helpfu;
Nice informational video! Thank you for the input! Just wondering if you have the handlebar raisers or this is the fit with the stock handlebar mount, without risers. Drive safe! /Marian
Hey Marian, this is with the risers fitted, it does work the same way with or without the risers though. Ride safe.
@@aussievmax Thank you for the answer! I am also considering mounting the GPS up there! Good to know that it might work with the raisers! Drive safe! /Marian
Do you refit the bottom set of circlips? Just wondering what stops the mount coming off if you don't.... Ta.

Where did you buy it from? Can you add link please.
Thanks
I've bought this riser in order to locate my phone in a "chinese" mount above the oem cradle. Would I need any metalic bar from the oem to fix the cradle to the riser mount?
The oem cradle sits above the riser, if you want another to sit above it, I guess you could fit it in between the tree and oem bracket.
@@aussievmax sorry, maybe I didn't explain well. Did you use the oem axle from the old mount?
New bolts were included with the helibars, all the mounting hardware remained the same for the nav cradle.
@@aussievmax I understand it now. Thank you for your explanations

I didn’t do it straight away because that’s what I thought too, it hasn’t made a noticeable difference to my view out front.
You could put the link of where you bought it. Thank you.

Is this a good bike for the highway
It’s awesome on the highway, it really is a great all round bike.
How did it go on the test ride? I always thought they look like it would shake the shit out of the Nav on those long arms?
Mate it went well, I’ve been on a few rides since and I haven’t noticed any excessive shake.
@@aussievmax thanks mate .
Does it bounce off the windscreen? I have a Wunderlich screen that looks to be about the size of your GIVI. Again it does move a bit more than the stock one so I do wonder about rubbing.
It’s fairly adjustable so it doesn’t touch the screen.
@@aussievmax fitted mine a few days ago. Works well. Thanks for the advice 👍
DONDE SE PUEDE COMPRAR SOPORTE
GRACIAS
good item
purchasing office?
Do you mean where I bought it from? The link is in another comment, bought directly from Moto-mate
@@aussievmax thank you very much
Can someone just eliminate the whole Nav Doc completely ? I would never buy the BMW nav system when my cell phone does a good job and takes half the space .
Yes, you can replace the cradle with a phone cradle if you like.
@@aussievmax Thanks I have heard its pretty involved and can effect the Screen menus .
The cradles are available, you just swap it over, obviously you can’t switch the TFN over to nav and you change the plugs.
We call those clips Jesus Clips. That’s because when you flick them off , you say “ Jesus, where did that go?”
Ha! Any little circlip like that is called a 'pingfuckit' in my garage 😂
