MotoGadget M-unit Blue

Be sure to checkout our detailed video of the m-unit installation. 

The m.unit blue by motogadget is the next generation of digital control units for motorcycles. It boasts a range of new and improved features, including 12 inputs and 10 outputs, replaceable cable clamps, and Bluetooth LE connectivity. This allows it to be paired with the m.ride smartphone app, giving you even more control over your motorcycle's electrical system.

The m.unit blue is the heart of your motorcycle's electrical system, managing everything from the alarm system to the starter relay. It can be operated using buttons or traditional handlebar switches and is designed to reduce the number of relays and components in the wiring harness, making rewiring a breeze.

With the m.ride app, you get even more features like Keyless Go, where the bike's electrical system is activated as you approach with your smartphone. The app also provides real-time audio fault messages, firmware updates, and diagnostics. Additionally, the app keeps a logbook of your journeys and vehicle status, and even helps you find your parked bike.

Compatible with both Android and iOS devices, the m.unit blue by motogadget is the ultimate digital control unit for your motorcycle.
