What works in a 4 Button cradle?

SimonD · Feb 27, 2023

I'm going to be picking up a 2010 RT that comes with a 4 button Nav cradle that I assume was originally for a Nav 4.
I'm not a big Nav user - I use it more for speed limit info, ETAs for time critical journeys and "get you home" after following my nose for the day. I've planned routes using basecamp but have never stuck to them so the latest and greatest is not essential.
I was wondering what I could pick up that would fit the 4 button cradle. Is an old s/h Nav 4 a waste of time? Should I just ditch the mount and transfer the 390 from my other bike? Is there anything else that would work in the BMW cradle - Nav 5/6 Garmin 660/XT?

I have a Nav V in a 4 button cradle bought used, works great doesn't have the Nav VI ghosting problems not had any problems at all.

Nav 6 and old 660 work fine in 4 button mount on my KTM, Nav 5 is probably the best option
