Motorcycle CarPlay setups used to be rare and pricey. Not anymore. A quick scroll through Amazon now turns up dozens of cheap units offering wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, GPS, cameras and TPMS all bundled together.
The reviewer, who logs plenty of long distance rides on and off road, normally leans on their phone and Bluetooth helmet intercom for navigation and calls. The only real gap was losing GPS search when cell service dropped out. So going into testing the CPMC X6 Motorcycle CarPlay System, expectations were modest.
Turns out the X6 does more than expected. It ships with a 2K dash cam and stands out from the sea of similar gadgets by cramming a lot of function into one unit. There’s a 6.25 inch touchscreen running wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, front and rear 2K cameras, TPMS, GPS logging, and a build meant to handle life strapped to a bike, weatherproofing included.
My two cents…
Remember when bike CarPlay meant selling a kidney? Now Amazon's drowning in cheap knockoffs, wireless CarPlay, GPS, cameras, TPMS, the works. Skeptical reviewer, usually a phone and helmet intercom loyalist, tested the CPMC X6 anyway. Verdict? Shockingly competent. 6.25 inch screen, dual 2K cams, weatherproof build. Color him surprised.
