Navigation

In modern motorcycling, navigation isn't just a convenience — it’s an essential part of the ride. Whether you're commuting through city traffic or exploring remote backroads, having your GPS or smartphone securely mounted and clearly visible is key. But not every mounting solution is built for the demands of motorcycling. Wind, weather, vibration, and speed put ordinary phone holders to the test. SW-MOTECH’s motorcycle-specific GPS mounts and phone holders are engineered to meet these challenges head-on. They combine rock-solid stability with a modular design to suit almost any motorcycle and any rider’s setup.

SW-MOTECH’s universal mounting kits are developed for maximum versatility. Designed to fit nearly any motorcycle cockpit, they offer a secure way to mount GPS devices, smartphones, or action cameras like the GoPro. Each kit comes with a 1-inch ball base that attaches to a variety of common mounting points on the bike. Whether the setup calls for a mirror thread, an M6 or M8 threaded hole, or a handlebar clamp, the system is ready to adapt. The clamp works with handlebars measuring 22 mm, 28 mm, or 1 inch in diameter. Once installed, the pivotable socket arm gives the rider almost unlimited adjustment options. This makes it easy to angle the device exactly where it needs to be — within line of sight, without obstructing the instrument cluster. This flexible system makes universal kits a reliable option for nearly all bike types, from naked bikes to tourers to off-road machines. Riders can position their devices precisely where it makes the most sense for their riding posture and cockpit layout.

Components or Complete Kits: Built Around Your Needs Every rider has different preferences, and every cockpit layout is unique. That’s why SW-MOTECH offers all GPS and phone mount components as individual items or complete kits. Riders can build a completely customized setup from separate parts or choose a predefined kit that includes a GPS holder, a GoPro mount, or the weather-resistant Navi Case Pro. These kits are ideal for those who want a simple, all-in-one solution that covers both the mount and the device protection in one step.

Riders who already use socket arms can integrate SW-MOTECH’s universal holders without needing a full new system. The holder consists of a 1-inch ball joint and a reinforced mounting plate made from glass-fiber-reinforced polyamide, offering both lightweight construction and high durability. The holder follows a standard hole pattern, ensuring compatibility with many GPS cradles and mounting systems. Whether attaching a splashproof case or a dedicated navigation unit, this modular approach offers dependable integration with a wide range of setups.

The T-LOCK system has quickly become a staple in SW-MOTECH’s product universe. Originally designed for soft luggage, this quick-release connector has evolved into an essential mounting solution for navigation equipment. Riders can attach devices like smartphones or GPS units to the handlebar in seconds, using accessory pouches such as the Navi Case, Phone Case, or Smartphone Drybag. Each of these cases features a T-LOCK interface on the underside, which pairs with a ball-mounted T-LOCK base attached to a socket arm.

The true advantage of the T-LOCK system lies in its speed and ease of use. A simple quarter-turn clockwise locks the device in place; a reverse twist releases it just as easily. No tools required, no fiddling with straps. Even with gloves on, riders can quickly mount or remove their device, making it perfect for everyday use or multi-stop routes.
