I have narrowed down my short list of sat navs based on Irishgauchos videos .Anyone used these devices? . Wondering what real life experience you have with reliability , ease of use, visibility in sunlight etc etc etc .
Thanks

Hi I have the 702 BS since they where released had the previous model also, find the BS excellent, I very rarely use the Wonderwheel option as touch screen is good.
Use a simple connection method to avoid an issues, phone to 702 CarPlay option, comms to phone only.
This gives me music streaming from which ever phone source, Navigation for simple A to B google etc.
For route planning MRA ( new app is great) can also import GPX files much easier with MRA.
Now have the unit on a1300GS which has eliminated the instant supply loss to the Nav prep, engine stopped for whatever reason now stays on for a minute or two so no reboot required.
Purchased from Carpuride direct shop for decent discount , IMO value for money compared with others
Good luck

Hi, went with W702Plus myself. Going to try fit it to RT1250 as I experienced loss of maps on the tft while on holihops Europe last year. Not figured out best fitting method yet, my order was caught up with the Chineese new year but showing shipped now. Like the idea of it having a gps chip so independent of the phone mirroring in you want to be. I am tech savvy for an older rider, if its rubbish I will say it is. Let you know how it goes

First of all, thank you for watching my videos, much appreciated!

Then, I'll give you my personal experience. I started with Carpuride which I bought with my own money before I started doing youtube, great device, no complains there. But after testing a few of them, the RiderNav R7M is the best of the bunch in my opinion.

Screen, the UI, the features, etc... it's just awesome.

Here you can see it in action, it's my new personal device and again, I have like 8 to choose from.

Hope that helps!

I'd like a W702BS Plus but they don't make one yet.
I'd be easy for them to do I'm sure.

I use a 702BS Pro, love it. Works a charm

Next one would be a Carpe iter

I've had both and a Chigee. I've now got the RiderNav. I needed a 7 inch screen because of my eyesight. All are great units. IMHO the RiderNav has a clearer and brighter screen, a cleaner interface and responds better and faster to touch and wonderwheel inputs than the W702BS. Things change very quickly in the Car Play world.
