About this project
Motorcycle navigation has long been stuck between two bad options: expensive, bulky dedicated units, or a phone clamped to the bars — exposed to rain, crashes and distraction. Five years after the original Moto, London-based Beeline returns with the second generation.
Moto II debuts an all-new interface: a high-contrast mini-map with turn-by-turn guidance readable at a glance, while keeping the beloved compass-arrow mode. The screen area more than doubled versus the original, and new RockerTop 2™ physical buttons work with gloves on. Speedo, odometer, clock and ETA are all on display. The unit is fully IP67 waterproof and shockproof, rides for 14 hours per charge with months of standby, and is built for modular repairability with a replaceable battery; a universal mount ships in the box, with a powered mount insert available to charge while riding. The companion app's route planning and ride tracking stay free, backed by ongoing OTA updates.
Launched in February 2024, the campaign drew 3,346 backers and raised about £653.6K (~$832K) — roughly 1,307% funded.
