Motorcycle navigation Q&A

​​Why are we including a navigation Q&A section on the website you ask? Well, we are glad that you asked!​
​
Through the past two years of SilverFox navigation controller development, we have have an opportunity to learn A LOT about motorcycle navigation, map applications, and all of the associated motorcycle gps requirements. While it is still early in the development of motorbike navigation topics, there are some great people, products, and information out there. Our goal with all of the posts and links below is to share what we have learned!
​
We are hoping that we will be able to provide helpful and up-to-date information to support all of you navigation goals! And by all means, seeing as that this is a "Navigation Q&A", please send us your questions and we will share what we know!
Why a Motorcycle Navigation Q&A section?
Motorcycle Navigation Controller Comparison
One of the questions we get quite often is the about the SilverFox motorcycle gps controllers is: What is the difference between the B8J and HomeOne controllers?
The answer is put simply in the one minute video below, in which you can see the size difference between the two controllers. The original B8J controller is larger, with a wider body to accommodate the additional "function" button on the top or the controller, with the HomeOne controller being narrower, with only three buttons along the side of the controller. The different case shape of the controllers allow for different placement handlebar set-ups. However, both controllers perform the same operations when operating the different motorcycle gps apps that most riders are using, the difference being the button commands to perform the operations are slightly different.

If there are questions about how the controllers might set up on your handlebars, feel free to drop us a question. Or, if you have set-up you SilverFox controller on your handlebars and would like to share your experience of the set-up, then send us a picture!
