Installing Aoocci C6 Pro all-in-one motorcycle dashcam on BMW R 1250 GS

Apart from being a dashcam, it also features Android Auto, GPS and anti-theft function.

BHPian dkaile recently shared this with other enthusiasts:

So the Navigator 6 was getting quite long in the tooth and out-dated, in this era of Android Auto devices. I had heard good things about this Aoocci (strange name) device and it was quite competently priced compared to the 50k they were asking for the Chigee, which was its nearest rival.

I purchased it directly from their website (no affiliations) with some online discount codes (around 30% IIRC), and the total landed cost to me was 14,595/- all inclusive. Very strangely, it was shipped by some warehouse in Delhi by DTDC and I received it in about 10 days' time and I had to pay no customs, etc. They must have very nice arrangements for India delivery at their backend.

This is how I received the packaging from DTDC -

A very nice Box inside -

Some specs on the side which are self-explanatory. It's supposed to be IP67 waterproof -

The Box contents - with Dual cameras, TPMS (which I did not install as my bike has it by default), all mounts and accessories -

Mounting Hardware for the handlebar was included separately -

A closer look at the device itself -

Fantastic fit and finish and aluminium alloy body -

A 64GB micro SD card was included for free for camera recordings -

Metal cover to install the card -

Made waterproof with proper rubber bungs for the ports. Also, notice a C-Type USB port to run it directly, when the device is off the bike -

The ports revealed below. All of very high quality -

Aluminium alloy back with integrated GPS -

Waterproof power box to connect to accessory power supply (switched). Multiple options were given to power up the device -

With an included inline 3A fuse -

A USB Type A power supply cord as an optional way to power it up. I presently use this method as I find it more convenient -

Solid Ball Joint to attach the device to the handlebar mount -

A size comparison with the BMW Navigator 6. Almost the same external dimensions with a much bigger display area -

Getting ready to remove the Nav Mount from the bike to fit the C6 Pro. These zip ties needed to be cut to free up the wiring -

GPS Mount power socket disconnected from the bike's OE wiring -

Getting ready to remove the screws so nothing falls in the crevices -

These nuts have a tendency to fall and never to be found again... lol -

Nav Mount removed in 5 minutes -

The full mounting displayed -

Both the Accessory power adapters were used including this Denali one -

The Nippy Norman one attached to the power box, which inline attaches to the Denali connector as shown earlier. I attached this but eventually used only the USB connector one -

Mounting completed on the handlebar mount -

Everything was neatly zip tied not to be visible at all from the front -

The final result. No going back to Nav 6 ever -

Maps in full screen in Android Auto. Wireless connection -

Night View of the setup -
