Displays for Motorcycles

Frequently Asked Questions

The core difference lies in the adaptability for riding:

  • Safety Design: The interface is optimized for riding (larger icons, simple operation), and it supports gesture control or physical buttons to minimize time spent looking away from the road.
  • Durability: It has high-level waterproofing (IP67 or higher), dustproofing, and shock resistance to withstand harsh outdoor conditions.
  • Mounting Method: Designed specifically for motorcycle handlebars, using shock-absorbing mounts to prevent loosening or damage from engine vibrations.
  • Display and Brightness: The screen size is moderate (typically 5-12 inches), with a high peak brightness (over 1000 nits), ensuring clear visibility under sunlight.
  • Power Management: It supports motorcycle battery power supply, with comprehensive low-voltage protection to prevent battery drain.
  • Handlebar Diameter: Measure the diameter of your handlebars (usually 22mm or 25.4mm) and choose the appropriate clamp.
  • Shock-Absorbing Base: This helps filter out high-frequency engine vibrations to protect the internal components of the screen.
  • Mounting Location: Ensure the screen is installed in a natural line of sight, does not obstruct the dashboard, and allows easy operation while riding.
  • Cigarette Lighter / USB Port: The simplest option, but requires the motorcycle to have a factory-installed socket.
  • Direct Connection to Battery: The most reliable option, requiring a dedicated motorcycle wiring kit (including a fuse). Installation by a professional is recommended.
  • ACC Power Supply: Connect to the ignition-controlled circuit, allowing the screen to power on / off with the ignition. This is the ideal solution.

This is a core feature of the motorcycle smart screen and is fully supported.

  • Connection Method: The smart screen pairs directly with your helmet's Bluetooth headset via Bluetooth. Navigation voice, music, and call audio will all play through the headset.
  • Phone Connection Logic: Your phone connects only to the smart screen via Wi-Fi / Bluetooth. The smart screen acts as an audio relay, receiving signals from your phone and forwarding them to the Bluetooth headset. This avoids distance and stability issues when connecting your phone directly to the headset.

For absolute safety, minimize touchscreen operation as much as possible:

  • Voice Control: Highly recommended. Wake up your voice assistant with "Hey Siri" or "Hey Google" to perform most tasks such as setting navigation, playing music, making calls, etc.
  • Physical Buttons / Handlebar Controller: Some models come with an external waterproof controller that can be mounted on the handlebars, allowing basic functions like skipping songs and answering calls.
  • Park and Operate: Any complex settings and inputs should be done only when the vehicle is stationary.

Yes, but two conditions must be met:

  1. The device must have a high-level waterproof certification (such as IP67), allowing it to be used in heavy rain.
  2. All ports (such as the USB power port) must be fully sealed with waterproof plugs.

Even so, it's advisable to use caution in extreme downpour conditions.

  1. Smart Screen: Powered by the motorcycle's battery, it charges while the vehicle is running, so there is no need to worry about battery life.
  2. Motorcycle Battery: Properly installed products will not drain the battery. Key points:
    1. ACC Power Supply: Turns on / off with the ignition, automatically disconnects when the engine is turned off.
    2. Low Voltage Protection: The device has a built-in protection circuit that automatically shuts down if the battery voltage drops below a safe level (e.g., 11.8V), preserving enough power for ignition.

Professional motorcycle smart screens use high-brightness LCDs and full-lamination technology, with peak brightness far exceeding that of smartphones and regular car displays. On a sunny day at noon, as long as the screen is not directly in the sun, the content remains clearly visible. When choosing, the brightness parameter (nit value) is the most important factor.

  • Regularly check that the mounting bracket screws are tightened.
  • Clean the screen with a soft, slightly damp cloth, avoiding corrosive cleaning agents.
  • If not in use for an extended period, remove the device and store it indoors.
