John Milbank has spent several weeks using the Innovv N2 on a 2001 Honda VFR800. The verdict is clear. It delivers the core functions riders want at a sensible price.
The N2 runs Android Auto and Apple Car Play. It mirrors a smartphone over WiFi. The phone stays in a pocket. The screen stays off. Battery drain stays low. Navigation apps like Google Maps, Waze and Calimoto work as expected.
The unit costs £187 from the UK importer. It carries a two year warranty. Optional extras add features. A GPS module costs £27. Tyre pressure monitors cost £38. Front and rear 2K cameras cost £122.
The 5.99 inch screen works with gloved hands. Brightness reaches a claimed 1200 nits. In strong sunlight it can look dim. There is no quick release mount. The microSD card slot sits behind an unsecured cover.
The dash cam records at 2560 by 1440 at 30fps. Footage is usable for incidents. Files save in .ts format, which complicates playback.
For riders who want phone based navigation without risking their handset, the N2 makes sense. It covers the basics and keeps costs down.
My two cents…
Date reviewed May 2026. John Milbank strapped the Innovv N2 to his 2001 Honda VFR800 and lived with it. Verdict? It does the job. No fireworks. No wallet trauma. Just the stuff riders actually want.You get Android Auto and Apple Car Play over WiFi, so your phone stays tucked away like it is 1999 and we still trust pockets. Google Maps, Waze, Calimoto all behave. Battery drain stays civilised. Imagine that.It is £187, with add ons if you are feeling fancy. Screen works with gloves, though bright sun can make it sulk. Cameras are decent, files slightly annoying. Bottom line, solid, sensible, done.
