I wasn't sure where to ask this so here is a new topic. I have a 2024 RT and I have had no issues using the app. I will go as far as saying it is probably the best nav I have used. My question is, if I hire a non BMW rental bike how do I get the app to record my rides ? Many thanks and safe riding to all !

You cant use the BMW ride app on non BMW's. However you can add multiple BMW bikes to the app.

Thanks Kickstart. I thought is was unlikely but worth asking the question .

I will be riding around New Zealand for three weeks but can't take my RT from Australia. A rental is the only option.

I agree but sometimes we have to settle for an inferior product.
