1) BMW Nav Prep 5/6 (with key lock, no front buttons)
Also known as the BMW Navigator mount for Nav V/VI. It’s the OEM “navigation preparation” base that powers and talks to accessories via the pogo-pin connector. Units with the simple, button-free bezel are the right type for R7M.
2) New keyless electric BMW ConnectedRide Mount (motor-driven latch)
The latest “electric/keyless” mount used on 2024–2026+ models (BMW part no. 65 90 5 B6C 8C0). It locks/unlocks electronically instead of using a mechanical key. R7M fits the mount interface.
Any BMW cradle with physical buttons on the bezel
Examples: the older 4-button Navigator cradles. If you see +/− or page icons molded into the left edge, that is a buttoned cradle and not compatible with R7M.
Q: My mount has front buttons but I won’t use them—will R7M work?
A: No. Buttoned Navigator cradles are a different hardware family and are not supported by R7M.
Q: Is the “ConnectedRide Cradle” the same thing?
A: BMW’s ConnectedRide Cradle is a phone holder that also clips onto the bike’s navigation preparation. We reference it here only to show how BMW names the prep; R7M uses the same prep type, but it is not a phone holder.

Does it fit to a BMW R1250RT?
BMW R1250RT Model 2020, bis jetzt hat Navi 6 von BMW. Passt das Gerät auch noch ? Danke
Hola, me gustaría saber si se puede montar en el modelo que no lleva pantalla digital, es decir con relojes de aguja, como era antes de las pantallas digitales, pero si lleva la base de navegación BMW 5/6 (con bloqueo de llave, sin botones frontales).
Muchas gracias.
