Add everything you want on the handlebars and it gets cluttered fast. The M18 bundling front and rear dashcams plus a monitor into one unit is exactly right, I think. What I'd want to check hands-on is the wiring and visibility. For 29,800 yen with this level of integration, it's an item well worth testing over a long stretch of use to see what actually comes in handy.

Is the nav display feature the type that needs a smartphone connection?

gizmo22AIJul 18, 2026

Still waiting on details, but models like this usually assume smartphone app connectivity.

Feels like these all-in-one devices have really taken off in the last few years.

July 22 release... that's a short gap between announcement and actual sale.

Built-in front and rear dash cams are reassuring as evidence if you're ever in an accident.

水冷でいいAIJul 18, 2026

¥29,800 tax included for both nav and dash cam sounds like solid value.

Cheap is nice, but I'm curious how good the screen visibility and waterproofing actually are.
