- This is a new GPS Tracker made for motorcycle use but doesn't require any install or complicated install. Charge it, run the app and go! It lasts for months on a charge, notifies you instantly of tip over or motion, leaving geozones and can track your bike or anything else, anytime anywhere.

I have an Invoxia GPS tracker for my BMW G310GS motorcycle and it's great. Easy to use, reliable, easy to conceal, the SIM card is already installed and pre-loaded, and I wired mine to charge while I'm riding and the tracker still works months after I've ridden.
Thanks for sharing
I have a device that uses the same technology and it helped me get a $2000 trailer back that someone stole in the middle of the night. The police were able to go directly to the property where the trailer had been stashed in a matter of a couple of hours from the time it was stolen. Definitely worth the cost and subscription fees in my opinion!!
what is the product called?
Bryan, glad you’re posting content on this channel again. Your wit has been missed
This device sounds like it would be great for a high-end bicycle. I have a Trek E-Bike and was doing some research on GPS trackers. The Invoxia looks like my go-to product.
Have under brought it? If do is it good do you like it?
Seems like a great product, I just ordered one from your link.
Glad to see you uploading moto content again! 😎👍🏼👍🏼
Great to see u up and running again 🏍️😀
Thanks for your news videos. I really miss your value information. In 2015 I bought my Yamaha 1300 hundred inspired by your videos.
thanks
instead of dbl face tape. Velcro this way you can use it for multiple vehicles. Good info Brian nice to see your back
Or how someone else may find and take it off your bike...just saying, but yes, that’s wise to do especially if you have multiple bikes 👍🏻
I said or velcro
Thanks. That is probably the device I am looking for. Normally I am not big on youtubers advertising stuff, since most of it is BS at best and will even screw you in some cases. But your opinion and recommendations have been solid so far. And I really need a tracking device on my bike for the sake of my sanity if nothing else. After walking out of a shop and finding my bike in a company of 2 men who were about to try to lift the front wheel and cart it away (disk lock was on), my paranoia on a 1-10 scale went somewhere around 34. So, my shopping list included a tracker, an anchor for my garage, a super tough chain with a lock, and a new disk lock with an alarm. F9 covered most of this stuff and a solid, but not expensive tracker is all I am looking for. This fits the bill perfectly.
Missed you Bryan! Glad to see you're back!
$129 and after the first year, the subscription is $39.90. Not sure why this was treated as super secret info, since it is what all of us want to know.
Not sure why you thought anything was secret lol
@@TwoWheelObsession It seems an obvious detail that you just walked right around rather than including it. Why did you not include any reference to the prices?
So you think if I didn’t mention something, it was a secret? Lol
@@TwoWheelObsession the reviews say it doesn’t work in the US?
I like that manual ping option. Especially if it gets stolen @11:52
Just stumbled across this channel, not really into bikes (don't get me wrong I'd like one though 😂) I think this could work well for an RV as well specially a towable. Fantastic review!! If you're looking for another tracker in the future the SPOT Trace looks high grade 🤙
Great review!
Amazon ad currently (Apr 26 2021) says $40/yr subscription and uses AT&T network.
That's correct! Its $39.90 after the first year. The Tracker uses AT&T, among others, that offer 4G LTE-M service.
Very informative. You have the best reviews.
Glad you like them!
I just bought one of these with a 3 year plan for 35 total. Usually it's probably about 170. Yearly subscription renewal plans are now 39.95
i don't know why they didn't make it just a big USB stick, you could plug right into your computer, with a memory and your trip track data saved on it instead of sent across the data network. Also, they could of made the battery bigger. I'm not exactly sure the best place to hide it. Under the passenger seat seems the best place, but that's also the first piece to be removed when a bike is stolen so... it's kind of a real life dilemma where to hide it. If you stuff it under the tank or metal, that's going to dimminish your cell signal. I've seen others stuffed in the handle bar ends, so I guess maybe it's not as big of a deal as I think.
Now that I think of it, the best place might be to get a sissy bar passenger backrest and hide it in there. That thing sticks up like a big antenna would in the clear open air.
I'd really like to see some Alexa integration with a skill. So you could tell Alexa when to wake it up, and when to put it back into standby mode... for when you walk out the door, or arrive back home.
As soon as I hit play on this video I was thinking man I know this guy from somewhere and then I saw cigarb session on your T-shirt. I've watched some of your cigar reviews. Haha .
Got mine.... works great. Thanks for the product review.
how sensitive is the motion sensor capability? For instance will it detect if someone simply removes the cover or touches the bike?
Great video! thanks for taking the time to make it!
very thorough review, thanks! you answered all the questions i had in mind 😅
I just checked and this is available in England for £98 with the 3 year plan included, that's not too bad. In the past I had one of those Bike Trac (Road Angel) things with the call centre support and all that jazz and it was a bit of a pain, if you didn't turn on the bike to move it you'd get a call to say your bike has been stolen. Plus if you were too enthusiastic in the twisties your other half would get a text to say you've fallen off. If your bike legitamitely gets stolen you get locked out of GPS tracking, only the police can see it, to prevent people getting hurt I guess. Ride tracking was good tho, but it was too much money and too much hassle overall so I like this one.
Where did you buy it - is there any link.
I wanted to use it for my motorbike.
I stopped using it, as I discovered that it loses communication as soon as it moves faster then approx 40 Mls, or 60km/h.
Invoxia confirmed this to be according specifications.
This is because it uses Sigfox / LoRa network to communicate.
Only usable for anything that won`t go any faster......
Maybe for a bicycle... (as long as it isn`t hault on a car or truck after being stolen....
can this be delivered to Canada Ontario?
Would you recommend maybe getting this and also a dummy tracker??! Like to put in a more obvious spot? That way if they look for one and they find the fake tracker maybe they won’t bother to keep looking and you can track the bike for sure with the tracker still being on the bike just in case if someone does take it. I would hate to buy one and then they just find it and take it off you know?
Anyone have any dummy trackers to recommend as well btw?
Read before you purchase! It's possible at the time of most of these reviews on the Invoxia GPS 2 years ago that service was better but not the case now. Wasted over $100 bucks for something that stays dead in a kitchen drawer. If you select updates every 5 minutes you will need to charge in less than a week. Although it's cute and small, there's serious inadequacies. I'm in Houston Texas and this thing still can't connect or when it does it's sporadic. In NO way would you be able to track a bike with such delay and lack of true real time tracking. They won't let you return it once you figure out how bad this product is. Save yourself time and money and research other gps. I ended up spending another $$$ for a MoniMoto. Worked great out the box with NO charging for 1-2 years, no monthly fees until 2 years, TRUE real time tracking...no lines and dots. You can actually view images of where the gps is. I'll post updates as needed for this product but I'm very pleased, especially with notification in seconds not minutes!
Wish you could have going into detail. On settings. Thanks for info
Great video. Just save me the old man rant
Great review! Just bought it on your amazon link! Thanks so much... I love the Motorcycle and Cigar content!! Quick question: Can you have two or three vehicles tracked on the same app? I’m thinking for my motorcycle and car.
Yes you just select which you want to control in the app
Thanks for the tip, I'm looking for a device exactly like that one. Cool😎
I had my bike stolen from my garage last night so standby mode would be a waste of money. So my point is don’t assume no one can get into your garage they obviously can because mine was closed.
Thanks for the review I always like them and usually ended up buying the product like that air pump you review, I love it, have you use or check into the monimoto tracker? if yes what are your thoughts about it?
how does it differentiate between you moving the bike or a thief? If you take the bike for a ride, wouldn't you get a bunch of notifications? You have to manually put it out of standby mode everytime I ride and remember to put it back on when Im done?
Your bike looks great! Is this a 2016 build? I am considering getting a used one, but not sure what year. I heard the big update was 2016 ? I now have a partner and we both like a comfortable seat to ride for 4 to 5 hours without butt pain. Is Yamaha FJR more affordable in USA? 2016 sell here in Germany for 12000 € with 25000 miiles on it and 2 to 3 owners. Do you know any problems the bike can make if older?
Deciding between this and the Monimoto tracker. I like that the Invoxia has a smaller form factor and not needing a separate fob like the Monimoto is a plus. You may have just tipped the scales in Invoxia's favor, at least for me. Thanks!
EDIT: Just looked through the reviews on Amazon, seems like it's really hit or miss with functionality. Since it's Amazon, worst case is return it.
So, how did it turn out?
Why not use an old iPhone ?
Looks like a great tracker! Too bad it won't work in Canada.
Please tell me you found one that works in Canada.
Hello, please, I want to learn how to set up the control panel. I want to get the temperature of the engine and it does not appear on the main screen. Please help
Do you need a subscription or a monthly fee to run the device
Yes, annual fee
Where is this manual ping button to see instant real-time
?
I bought a 1800 ebike on August 19th, it arrived august 31st and was stolen September 14th, lol. Wish I saw this sooner.
And I spent the extra $7 bucks to get the 2 year included plan.
good review. i would buy it if i needed it. except for england we heve raerly a motorcycle theft in Europe. motorcycle riders are still looked at as a 1% and nobody will even tutch a bike. if people see a tatoo on you while next to a bike they wil make a D loop or walk very uncofortly past you. it always makes me smille on how people still are prejudice around here. in the big cities it slowly starts to change.
Bryan, what happened to the video named "Just a love tap". It was a great night ride and one of my favorite videos haha
CZcams took it down for a false copyright claim years ago
@@TwoWheelObsession oh ok. It was a great video and I liked the song you used in it and was thinking about using it for my new one...guess that's a no no haha
I think that with de App like My Toyota you can find your car. What would be the advantage or difference?
The MONIMOTO tracker is more specially an Antitheft Tracker as it works in conjunction with a keyring fob...so it the bike moves with the fob nearby it alerts and starts tracking. It's battery lasts for a year, and coverage is worldwide for $42/year. It's very rugged/waterproof.
Only downside is it uses 3G which is going extinct very soon. I had my eye on one.
Do you have this on Québec ans Do you have personne Who's speake french
Can you check the battery percentage on the app ? Thanks
Yes
Invoxia works also in the EU
Yes, you're right! In fact; we're one of the most well established GPS Tracking companies in Europe with a range of different tracking products on sale.
@@mattinvoxia3515 Hey Matt do you have a timeline when this tracker might be released in Canada?
@@lbrucek1 I'm afraid I don't at this time, but we're always trying to bring our products to new markets!
Europeans, PLEASE be aware, as I nearly made the mistake myself. Invoxia uses the 4G network ONLY in the US. The European version uses sigfox which is basically useless in many countries and cities. That's why there is a difference in the price between the US and the EU version of the device.
any clue if you where to hook this up to a usb battery bank would it still function while charging
How long does battery last
WHERE do you put it? Hide it?
Do you have a cigar channel? You look super familiar.
Very good review. Just some questions. The app tells you the remain battery in the device?
And you say that it has Bluetooth for phone connection. But is the Bluetooth turned on all the time (so the burglars come near the bike and search for some Bluetooth device 😁)?
Great review. I have a Tracki. I really like it. It has a web browser interface in addition to a mobile app. It's highly configurable if you'd like to do so. The browser interface has some nice reporting features that would look terribly crowded on a mobile app.
The Tracki doesn't have a bump/tip alert that would be nice to have. If I think about it, a bump/tip alert doesn't do much for me. It can't prevent stupidity. I'd rather have a nice web browser interface instead.
Anyone know if this works in Canada?
how sensitive is the motion sensor capability? For instance will it detect if someone simply removes the cover or touches the bike?
hello! do you discharge the motorcycle battery when you do not start the engine for a week? after he discharged my battery after a week.
Do you happen to know if the invoxia GPS tracker can be blocked by a signal jammer?
Hello, I have a galaxy note 9 and the invoxia GPS tracker, but I just can't seem to get it to connect, I've tried contacting tech support but no answer yet, any advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
Can i use a sim card from my country and would it still work? If i do so, do i still have to pay for the annual subscription service?
How do you make it manually ping instead of waiting?
So....what's your connection to the mfgr?
Your video comes across as very end-user/happy-customer, but the amazon page has your picture everywhere and EVERY video for the product is basically just this one all diced up.
I was fairly psyched, but now just feel misled. Should have been more up front on the data cost too. It's actually not a bad price, but just for completeness and, as several have said below, people want to know not just the features but how much something costs. Yes, prices change over time (we're all pretty acutely aware of that by now) and you want your video to stay current, but you should include some price info.
lol none - I simply gave them permission to use my vid for their own marketing
Hard to get started.
You could probably wire a USB charger up to your bike so that it charges while the bike is running. Then you never have to take it off or think about it very often. You just need to make sure you plug your bike in though haha.
I should have been more clear - not only do the settings not show up while charging, it doesn't function fully. It only normally operates when under it's own power.
@@TwoWheelObsession Ahh man, that's weird. Also, you were probably perfectly clear, it's more likely that I just missed that part. There's a chance that I may have been multitasking while watching :P
It is not meant to be a permanent install or wired. It's whole point is, it's portable. Your expectations are out of whack lol
@@TwoWheelObsession I suppose. It is kind of strange that it can't be used while charging though. Not sure if there's a technical reason for it or if maybe it's a financial decision, but I could see many use cases for having it functional while charging outside of just motorcycles.
I've tested the Invoxia GPS tracker by charging it and tucking it under the seat but that's an insane amount of hassle and the one time I forgot to use it or charge it would be the time my bike is stolen. Being able to wire it to charge when the bike is running without running down the bike's battery when parked also allows more options for much better locations, under fairings, etc., where a bike thief is less likely to find it. The manufacturer assured me that the Invoxia could be wired to USB charge on the motorcycle and would function properly as a GPS tracker. I'm going to be very angry if I was lied to in order to convince me to buy a product that doesn't work in my application.
Awesome review.....👍👌
The Apple AirTag would do this as it uses other AirTags to let you know where it is and I think battery lasts a year.
not the same i have been testing the air tags if there is a weak signal no good also rely on others to let you know it was found, only a 200ft Bluetooth, in an emergency you need to know immediately
This only pings at a minimum of 5 minutes. I'd be happier with 5 seconds which is why I am choosing a different tracker for my bike. Other than that, it is a great tracker.
Great review!
Thanks!
@@TwoWheelObsession How does this compare to Monimoto 7?
Without a key fob, how does the Invoxia know that you're on your bike (or transporting it on your trailer)?
Hi Bj, at the moment it doesn't know when you're on your bike/in close proximity but there's a big software update coming which will change how this works. With this new feature, Smart Alarm, activated, alerts will be silenced when the tracker detects your phone in close proximity (using Bluetooth). It will continue to regularly report its location, but without any false alarms. Once you step away from your vehicle, the anti-theft alerts will re-activate and you'll receive a notification via the companion app should the tracker detect movement.
- Matt
@@mattinvoxia3515 thanks Matt. Any updates on when that update is coming out? Also, can't you pause the notifications using the app if you are going for a ride or transporting the bike on a trailer? I just don't want to get a new notification every 5 minutes while riding.
@@bjelliott2887 The update should be released by the middle of this week! It'll resolve exactly the sort of annoying situation you've encountnered.
@@mattinvoxia3515 I got the update! Thank you.
Does it send you constant notifications when your on your bike?
How long does the battery last?
this tracker can works in Greece??
i had my dirtbike stolen from my garage closed , its actually really easy to break into garages
Good
Hello Bryan ! Nice video. I live in Africa, can it be used anywhere other than Europe or the US !? Like internationally!?
Hi Spider, apologies for the late reply. At the moment we don't offer any of our GPS Trackers in Africa - this is due to the communications networks we use not yet being availalble outside of Europe / North America. We're always exploring new technologies and bringing our products to new markets. Please check back with our website regularly for any updates.
-Matt
@@mattinvoxia3515 that's rather unfortunate. Good companies in the US/Europe always do not take Africa into consideration when they make up their business plans. While there Is a very big market here. That's why Chinese companies make more money and tend overtake world business.
Interesting. Thanks for the review. Not worth the price to me. I’ll keep paying my insurance premium. Never had my bike moved/tipoed/messed with since 1975. Perhaps I’m just lucky. Other folks...other strokes.
Also keeping in mind it includes 2 years of monthly subscription for free which makes it cheaper than the $15 options
Not being waterproof is not plus for Razors.
The reviews are saying it doesn’t work in the US ? Would this be good to track a kid driving a car in real time
Hi there, our Cellular GPS Tracker absolutely works in the US! It's not strictly a real-time tracker with the most frequent update interval being about every 5 minutes. I think for most use cases, that's plenty for keeping an eye on a teen driver.
-Matt from Invoxia
How much does it cost?
You don't need to install a sim card ?
Hi Nasser, the SIM Card is factory installed and non user replaceable. Each tracker comes with a 1, or 2 year subscription included (this covers the cellular connection and our tracking services). After this free period, renewing is really inexpensive going from about $29/year.
-Matt from Invoxia
Invoxia Real Time GPS Tracker Per month $19.95 (Dam)From 3.33/month. Uses 4G
I've been testing this, and I don't think it works at all.
It doesn't use cellular, it uses the Helium IOT network, which just does not exist anywhere.
If you have your smart phone on and carrying it with you while you drive, you will be fooled and you will think it's working... because it's connecting to your phone in your pocketvia bluetooth, and uploading the data points to the app and up to the cloud.
But if your vehicle is stolen, your smart phone is going to be nowhere near around and totally out of bluetooth range. To test and confirm I'm not talking shlt, switch off your phone and drive around for a day, and you will find, it sends no GPS location data points up to the network and to the app at all.... because the the Helium IOT network cratered and does not exist anywhere, despite their coverage map.
Don't buy this. I bought two with 3 year service plan, and neither one of them lasted more than a week or two.
You put them into Standby mode, and you can never get them out of Standby mode. They stop responding.
the application of this gps does not have good references
Does it have international tracking?
No
This doesn't work - at least not longer term. Since you gave a glowing review, how about a followup with some attention paid to all the problems so many people are having with this tracker? Right now the tracker is next to me and it shows a position in another city from over a week ago with no way to update it. The problems with this tracker are starting to show up all over from many people. If you give a good review then you also have a responsibility to check that what you say is valid.
LOL I love how people feel entitled to things :) This video is years old and I'm not the company. IF things go south, oh well. Nothing to do with me. Responsibility ROTF man you people are hilarious :)
@@TwoWheelObsession y need cowl from my Raider
This thing needs an aircraft cable lock instead of that leather strap.
THE REPAIR SHOP WILL TEST RIDE YOUR BIKE WTF!!!!
Seriously you probably just created so many altercations right there.
You do a job you test ride it to make sure it’s safe.
Yamaha fgr 1300/2013
Ive got 3 of these. One still works, two are only 6 months old and failing. Ive gone back and forth with "customer service" going on 5 weeks now via email. Clearly the battery is failing/defective and they STILL have me jumping thru hoops with troubleshooting this POS. Dont but this junk. Customer service is a joke.
I bought it and it is not working in my country.
Hi Faris, may I ask where you are located? Our Cellular GPS Tracker is only sold in the United States and Germany for the time being. 4G LTE-M Networks are being installed elsewhere in the world and we're keeping a close eye on new markets where our products could be compatible.
@@mattinvoxia3515 hello Matt, thanks for responding. I live in Kuwait. Invoxia team told me that the GPS tracker only works in USA and some countries in Europe.
Too big to , easy to find for thiefs. In 10 seconds removed from our bike.
Question can it charge and track at the same time
Hi there, our Cellular GPS Tracker can absolutely charge and track at the same time! All you need is to hook it up to a USB charger and you're good to go.
Damn not water proof 😕
BUT WATERPROOF, IT’S A NO FOR ME
Micro vs mini usb...
Bloody expensive!!
LOL not at all
WTF happened to your hair?
huh?
That’s the new look . New tracker , new videos ! Got it ?
Woow you talk too much mate.
