Speed 1050 Rs Connectivity Now Out

Hi there all,
Just so happens that the connectivity module is now available for the speed triple rs 1050 and I’d noticed that the triumph app for iOS has been updated too for ios15….

 

£302 all in apparently.

 

Just been quoted £270 all in. Booked in for next Saturday.

 

I’m hoping that it plays ball with the iPhone and bugs have been seen too. Update was for ios15 so it’s fingers crossed. I’ve only got a GoPro 3+ so no dice but I’m a sucker for tech (if it works of course!)
Been hit and miss with people tbh

 

I have a work iphone xr and a personal iphone 12. Tbh, i prefer the xr so i'm keeping the fingers crossed that all goes well.
Do you happen to know if you can pair two phones by any chance?

 

Hi @Sandi T I'll give you a 100% honest update as soon as. I just hope I don't get some of the woes that others have endured...

 

Hi there,
It’s being installed on Saturday 13th nov so not sure yet. I’ll update this as to how it goes and if it actually works later in the day. All my bits are crossed that it’s not a waste of money tbh.

 

I'd be more jacked off if i'd had to pay it on top of the asking price for a new speed rs 1200 though!

 

Right, it’s installed……
What a faff to get an iPhone connection.
I now have an iPhone XR and an iPhone 12 Pro Max (with beta 15.2 sw) installed and working btw.
It took 3 of us (2 triumph technicians) 40 minutes to get sat nav working…, Instructions are simply shit. Do not install the bike on the app UNTIL you get the module done first and definitely use the “add by Bluetooth “ option!
Problem with iPhones (with triumph app) is that it takes 2 Bluetooth connections to work. 1 for phone and music and 1 for sat nav. Pics below:
It the second one that makes you not want to bother. We had to connect and disconnect about 20 times (seriously) and all of a sudden, it pared on the second connection to enable sat nav.
Phone and music connection is fine and intercom system working perfectly, instantly.
However, things are quite a bit different on the display now. Definitely for the worse imho…. Borderline not useable…
Basically, you lose ALL of the current screen layouts and now get (I presume) the new street triple ones which are simply crappy. Pics below:
You only get 4 btw. Rev counter is basically unreadable and fuel gauge isn’t on all of those. Satnav hung up on my way home and never re-established reconnection. To be fair, my iPhone on bt is always a crappy signal so not sure where that went wrong.
Sw download took 2.5 hrs too. A few different menu choices too but all obvious.
If you have a Samsung on android, it’s simple (apparently) as it’s actually a Samsung Bluetooth module that’s being used.
I’ll give it time to hopefully gel on me but first impression is not encouraging. Just being totally honest chaps. Another also, you CANNOT go back to the previous sw after this update so be warned.
I have an older interphone fmc3 intercom and music (and volume) all works fine. I’ve turned off the sms/phone call tab as I’m not interested in that. Module sits right near the rear usb socket under the seat btw.
@Sandi T , all I can think of above!

 

Hi there neal,
The chap at the dealer said it's all on the latest sw so i'm hoping its just the initial connection woes.
It is very quick to establish connection at switch on though.
I suppose it's a case of getting used to it. I too bought it mainly for the satnav option as i'm not overly bothered about music and calls whilst riding. I just love the actual sound of riding (if that makes sense!?)
