RiderNav R7M Brings Smart Navigation to BMW Riders

The latest innovation from RiderNav is here to redefine motorcycle navigation for BMW enthusiasts. The new R7M is a 7-inch high-brightness display purpose-built for BMW motorcycles equipped with the OEM Navigation Cradle. Designed to integrate seamlessly, it delivers a truly plug-and-play experience—no extra cables, no complex setup, just pure riding focus.

Built for BMW Riders, Inside and Out

Unlike generic bike displays, the RiderNav R7M connects directly to BMW’s factory Nav Cradle, drawing both power and data while supporting full Wonder Wheel control. This native integration means riders can navigate menus, adjust settings, and access bike data without ever lifting their hands off the bars. It’s a display made to feel like an OEM upgrade rather than an add-on.

According to the RiderNav team, the R7M was designed “to blend seamlessly into BMW cockpits and remove installation complexity.” By focusing exclusively on BMW’s mounting system, the company has created a display that truly complements the riding experience.

Next-Level Visibility and Durability

The R7M’s 1200-nit touchscreen ensures excellent readability under direct sunlight—a common challenge for riders. The 7-inch HD panel is optically bonded to reduce glare and provide crisp clarity at any angle. Built to IP69K standards, it resists dust, mud, rain, and even high-pressure washes, performing reliably between ?20°C and 70°C. It’s a device clearly engineered for real-world riding, not just showroom specs.

Smart Connectivity Meets Simplicity

With wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ support, the R7M lets riders seamlessly access navigation, calls, messages, and music. Pairing happens automatically, and the 60 FPS response ensures fluid interaction. The system also supports pairing with helmet headsets for voice guidance or calls on the go.

Beyond smartphone mirroring, the custom RN OS offers a rider-first interface with large icons, high-contrast visuals, and simplified controls. Riders can easily switch between RN OS and CarPlay or Android Auto modes as needed—ideal for switching from a scenic cruise to data-focused touring.

More Than a Display: It’s a Control Hub

Adding to its appeal, the RiderNav R7M allows on-screen control of popular action cameras, including GoPro, Insta360, and DJI. Riders can start or stop recording and capture highlights directly from the screen, removing the need for extra remotes or fumbling with gloves. Real-time bike telemetry—such as RPM, lean angle, TPMS, and coolant temperature—is displayed alongside your route, merging functionality and performance insight in one interface.

The R7M is available now at an introductory price of $303 USD (20% off the $379.99 list price) for the first 100 customers, with in-stock shipping and an extended 12-month warranty. The upcoming R7X universal version for non-BMW motorcycles is expected in December.

Compatible BMW models include R1300 GS/GS Adventure/RS, R1250 GS/GS Adventure, R1200 GS (LC), S1000XR, F750GS, F850GS/Adventure, and F900XR—essentially all major BMW touring and adventure platforms.

For riders seeking a smarter, cleaner, and more connected cockpit, RiderNav has delivered a device that feels perfectly at home on any BMW handlebar.
