New Multifunctional instrument cluster with 6.5 inch full-colour TFT display 



The new 6.5 inch TFT display provides the rider with clear information so they can spend more time with their eyes on the road ahead. They can access motorcycle and connectivity functions quickly using the advanced BMW Motorrad multi-controller. In addition the new TFT display combines the familiar display of crucial data such as rpm and speed with new technology such as smartphone integration.

When developing the new TFT display, the BMW Motorrad engineers placed a major focus on designing all the rider interaction activities so as to keep rider distraction to an absolute minimum. Using the phone and listening to music in comfort while riding. If the rider for example connects a smartphone and a helmet equipped with BMW Motorrad communication system using the TFT display, he can easily access the media playback and phone functions.

The images in this article show a few of the screens that are available on the new TFT display.

The TFT dash is an optional extra and replaces the traditional analogue clocks completely. Available on the R1200GS and R1200GS Adventure.
