R 1300 R CarPlay
Hi everyone,
I recently got my motorcycle license and just bought my first bike: a BMW R 1300 R Option 719 2026 (2025). It's a fantastic, comfortable, and very easy-to-ride bike.
However, during the 8.5 to 9-hour ride home, I realized it would be really nice to have Apple CarPlay capabilities to use map functions more effectively. I know you can get the turn-by-turn arrows on the main display, but since there's the possibility of adding an extra screen, I’d love to try that out. Personally, I didn't feel that a Quad Lock and my phone was the best solution.
Has anyone mounted an extra screen on their 1300 R and been happy with it? If so, which unit/screen did you go with?
I'm a bit worried about buying a screen that's too big and might end up blocking the original dash.
