Having tried the expensive Garmin Zumo XT2 and then ending up with a far cheaper motorbike designed car play unit I would probably go for another carplay unit. Okay my carpuride has a few issues, it can be problematic occasionally losing comms with the phone and can run the phone battery down. But as long as I keep my phone on charge whilst using it works pretty well at a fraction of the cost. |

I use an old zumo, had it for years bought with lifetime maps and it's programmable at home so I just follow the pink line.
Doesn't have live traffic updates so if I get to a closed road I' m buggered and just enjoy getting lost. |

I’ve got a moto tablet pro which fits straight into my BMW cradle. Absolutely brilliant, Spotify and maps (Google and Apple)what more can you ask for. Ultra reliable too.
I do have a Zumo in my Blackbird which to be fair is great and does the job but I’m spoilt now by the car/bike play units.
Alternatively put your phone in a quad lock and Bluetooth your phone to your helmet lol. |

Beeline. Small removable weatherproof turn by turn display on handlebars, phone in pocket, simple and effective.
Has route options for fast, fun or relaxed if you really want to explore the minor lanes.
British company. |

I’ll second the beeline, and there is a newer model out too which is more detailed.
I like the simplicity on it and how you can set the route yourself adding in stops or just choosing the fun route over fastest |
