Updating the BMW Navigator

[Grumpy Goat]

So what should I do? Does the Nav 6 fit in the same mount that came with the bike? Or does it include a new mount in the package? I’ll be looking at used options in an effort to save a few bucks.

Also, while the wonder wheel is a neat gadget, it’s not a necessity. Shoud I perhaps just get the Garmin unit direct? If so, which model is appropriate.

Looking for comments and advice here. Anybody??? And thanks in advance.

If you want to use the BMW mount then you will have to buy the Navigator, which is a Garmin made for BMW Motorrad. The only Garmin that I think fits is the one you have (660) which is an old unit and as you say is dimming. There is no dimming with the Nav VI which is the main reason I bought mine.

Yes, the Nav VI fits into the prep that is on your bike and no it does not come with a mount.

I would pass on the Garmin and get the Nav VI, which integrates better with your bike than anything else and if you are looking to get the same Garmin GPS engine (not the best) then the other features push the Nav VI over the top. I winced big time buying the Nav VI but I don't regret it.
