Woodcliff Lake, NJ - August 2, 2006... Building upon the success of its
revolutionary Navigator, Navigator II and Navigator Plus GPS systems, BMW
Motorrad has raised the benchmark in motorcycle navigation equipment yet again
with the introduction of the Navigator III. Numerous new and unique features
make it technologically superior to its predecessors and light years ahead of
recently launched competitors' products in the GPS market.

Key features of the new Navigator III include:

* Pre-installed street level mapping for the entire country
* Pre-installed map software displaying roads, points of interest, hotels,
restaurants, BMW Motorrad dealers, gas stations, and more
* High resolution TFT screen for the best possible visibility - even in direct
sunlight
* Text-to-speech (TTS) voice prompts that announce street names when providing
directions
* Choice of 2D or advanced 3D map display with a "rider's eye" view that
continuously adjusts for maximum clarity
* A unique, individually configurable Track-Log with a 10,000 track point
capacity that records the exact routes traveled, which can be modified and/or
shared via PC
* Automatic turn-by-turn routing by choice of shortest time, shortest distance
or by linear distance (off-road)
* Compass function for off-road navigation and areas where mapping doesn't
exist or is unreliable
* Extremely shock resistant construction with robust built-in memory
specifically designed for motorcycle use
* Ability to plan (and store) routes and waypoints on the unit or on PC and
share via email with others
* Voice directions in a choice of 12 languages
* Travel computer displaying current, average and maximum speed, elapsed time,
time stopped and total time (including four trip odometers)
* Automobile accessories (universal dash mount, auto power supply with speaker,
full featured remote control) are included; the unit is completely portable and
can be used in any vehicle
* An Advanced Mount Cradle (unique to BMW) with four buttons allowing operation
with gloved fingers
* Removable unit, which can be secured to the cradle with a special screwdriver
or removed when parking the machine
* Fuel resistant housing to protect unit from accidental splashes while
'gassing up'
* Bluetooth interface allowing wireless communication of voice directions and
mobile phone calls to rider's with helmets that are so equipped (compatible
with over 200 phones)
* Multilingual owners manual
* BMW Motorrad Start-up Screen and attractive four-color BMW Motorrad Navigator
III specific box

Satellite Reception
The reception power of the Navigator III's satellite receiver has increased and
now provides optimal position location even under difficult reception
conditions, such as in a sea of high-rise buildings or in forest areas, where a
direct 'view' to the satellite is impaired.

Included Accessories
The BMW Motorrad Navigator III includes a model specific motorcycle mounting
bracket and complete maps of North America. All brackets are specifically
designed for each BMW motorcycle and offer a professional solution that no
universal bracket can hope to achieve. Also included are a bean bag mount,
automobile power adapter with speaker and a full function IR remote; all for
automotive use.

The 2007 BMW Motorrad Navigator III is available at authorized BMW motorcycle
retailers. Priced at $1,399, it includes a three-year warranty.
