CLASS-DEFINING SYSTEM FEATURES

World’s first motorcycle integrated GoPro control system

Triumph introduces the first motorcycle integrated GoPro control system, functionality which is only available from Triumph.

The rider can capture every moment on their ride by connecting their GoPro to the TFT display where they can intuitively access and control key GoPro functions through the motorcycle’s TFT instruments and left hand switch cube.

The TFT instruments display simple graphic icons on the screen, indicating the status of GoPro camera, including mode, start film, stop film, take photo and battery level. This system is compatible with all GoPro cameras from Hero 5 and Session 5 onwards.

Triumph’s first turn-by-turn navigation system powered by Google, and delivered by a new ‘MyTriumph’ app.

The first for any Triumph motorcycle and the very first Google partnership with a premium motorcycle manufacturer – the Triumph ‘turn-by-turn’ navigation system facilitates navigation through an accessory fitted Bluetooth connectivity module.

Connect with over 100 million points of interest in the Google infrastructure, with reliable, location aware search suggestions.

Once the rider has selected the route on the ‘MyTriumph’ app and set-off, the instruments present clear graphic turn symbols on the screen using icons, providing precise turn indications.

Route planning and points of interest can also be called up to the rider’s mobile phone screen directly using the ‘MyTriumph’ app. This sophisticated navigation system gives riders a simple and easy way to set their route and find their destination, both on short and long journeys.

Phone and music operation

Facilitated by the accessory fitted Bluetooth module, the rider can pair their smartphone and Bluetooth headset to the TFT connectivity system, providing full and intuitive control on the move.

Phone functions such as making and receiving calls and SMS message notification can be controlled via the left hand switch cube, as can music track selection and volume control.

AVAILABLE FROM SPRING 2019

The new TFT Connectivity System will be rolled-our across our TFT equipped model line-up from late Spring 2019. Full details for the timetable of availability for each individual model that has a TFT set-up (new and current models) and for the launch of the MyTriumph app will be released in January 2019. The price for the accessory fitted Bluetooth module and dealer software installation will also be released at the same time.
