What is Motorbike Mode?
Motorbike Mode is an add-on for Sygic GPS Navigation designed specifically for motorcycle riding, with a dedicated interface and ride-focused data during navigation.
The interface is adapted for quick glances while riding and can show ride-specific data such as lean angle, elevation profile, and weather along the route.

Where to find Motorbike Mode?
Motorbike Mode is available inside the motorcycle vehicle profile. You can find it in Menu → Vehicle Profile, where you select motorcycle from the list of profiles.
Once the motorcycle vehicle profile is selected, Motorbike Mode activates during navigation and Sygic GPS Navigation adjusts the navigation view for motorcycle riding.
If no route is active, the screen can look the same as with other vehicle profiles - visual changes apply once navigation begins.
Which features does Motorbike Mode include?
Motorbike Mode adds a dedicated navigation view and motorcycle-focused tools that appear when you start navigation with the Motorbike vehicle profile selected. The interface is optimized for quick glances while riding and shows additional ride-relevant information during guidance.
Motorbike interface – A dedicated navigation layout that is shown after you set a destination and start navigation.
Lean angle indicator – Shows how much the motorcycle leans left/right while riding. You can calibrate the indicator before the ride when the motorcycle is on a flat surface.
Elevation profile – Displays the elevation profile of your planned route.
Weather on route – Shows weather information along the route (including a weather icon and temperature at the destination).
Twisty Route – A route option that recalculates your route to prefer roads with more bends/curves when enabled in route settings.
Pulsing warning – High-visibility on-screen warnings designed to be noticeable during riding.
Color scheme – Lets you adjust the map color scheme in Motorbike Mode.
Speed limit – Displays the current speed limit.
Lock mode – Helps prevent accidental screen touches during riding.
Differences in using Motorbike Mode with Premium+ vs with Premium lifetime license
There are differences depending on which product you use Motorbike Mode with.
If you use Motorbike Mode without Premium+ (lifetime license only), you can still use the motorbike interface and motorcycle-specific features.
If you use Motorbike Mode together with Premium+, additional Premium+ navigation services (for example voice guidance, speed camera alerts, and real-time traffic) are available on top of Motorbike Mode.

Motorbike Mode applies during navigation. The dedicated motorcyclist interface appears after you set a destination and start navigation, so the screen can look the same as other profiles when no route is active.

I bought Motorbike Mode but it didn’t activate - what steps should I try first?
1) Make sure you are logged into the app with the same Sygic account used for the purchase (Sygic web purchase).
2) If you purchased in the app, verify you are signed in with the same Apple ID/Google account used for the purchase, then use Menu (☰) → Sygic Store → Activate/Restore → Restore.
I’m logged in, but features are missing - what should I check?
1) Confirm you are using the correct account (the one used for the purchase).
2) Make sure you selected the Motorbike vehicle profile and started navigation (the special interface appears only during an active route).
3) If you expect Premium+ features (e.g., voice guidance, traffic), verify that Premium+ is active on your account, as Motorbike Mode is a separate add-on.
