Buying a GeoRide: prices, models and everything you need to know
Protect my motorcycle with GeoRideThere are two ways to get your hands on a GeoRide: online at georide.fr, to buy or to rent, or from one of the official dealers across France. The catalogue holds two devices: the GeoRide mini at €199 (or €9.99/month on rental) and the GeoRide 3s at €299 (or €14.99/month), plus a €5/month subscription with no commitment when you buy.
The essentials
- georide.fr is the only place to rent; official dealers sell the devices, with advice and a demo.
- GeoRide mini: €199 or €9.99/month. GeoRide 3s: €299 or €14.99/month, no commitment.
- The €5/month subscription includes coverage in 200 countries, 24/7 Theft Assistance in France and free lifetime updates.
- You fit it yourself in 5 minutes, on any motorcycle or scooter.
Where to buy GeoRide: official site or dealer?
GeoRide is sold on georide.fr and through official dealers, but renting happens on the site only. Order online and you pick freely between buying and renting, with the device delivered straight to your door.
Would you rather see the product before you decide? Official dealers, spread across France, sell the devices with expert advice, an in-store demo and, in some shops, fitting on the spot. Good news if you order online: no professional needed, fitting a GPS tracker to your motorcycle takes 5 minutes on your own, red wire to the battery "+", black wire to the "-".
Whichever route you take, the product, the app and the subscription are exactly the same.
GeoRide mini or GeoRide 3s: which one should you pick?
The GeoRide mini covers the protection essentials (real-time location, alerts, theft assistance in France), while the GeoRide 3s adds Automatic phone recognition, Radar detection even underground and support for the Live accessories. The 3s is the most complete and most recent device in the range.
"We started from a blank sheet to design GeoRide 3s and launch three major new features." (Thomas, GeoRide founder)
| GeoRide mini | GeoRide 3s | |
|---|---|---|
| Purchase price | €199 | €299 |
| Rental | €9.99/month | €14.99/month |
| Real-time location, alerts, theft assistance in France | Yes | Yes |
| Fall detection, emergency call in France | Yes | Yes |
| Automatic phone recognition | No | Yes |
| Radar detection even underground | No | Yes |
| Lean angle recording | No | Yes |
| Live range accessories | No | Yes |
| Vehicle with no battery (USB charging) | No | Yes |
A simple rule of thumb: if your motorcycle sleeps in underground parking, the radar on the 3s changes everything. And if you ride a small scooter, a dirt bike or an electric bicycle, only the 3s runs with no battery, thanks to USB charging. To dig deeper, our comparison of GeoRide mini and GeoRide 3s goes through both devices point by point.
Buy or rent: which option pays off?
Rental is perfect for getting equipped with no upfront cost, and buying works out better after roughly 2 years of use. Both options come with no commitment.
Buy, and you pay for the device (€199 for the mini, €299 for the 3s), your first month of subscription is free, then the subscription runs at €5/month. The hardware comes with a 2-year warranty.
Rent, and everything sits inside the monthly fee: €9.99/month for the mini, €14.99/month for the 3s, plus a €29 activation fee charged after the first month. Rental throws in two real perks: a lifetime warranty on the hardware (the device is replaced free of charge if it fails) and, if your stolen motorcycle never turns up, a new GeoRide sent free of charge to protect the next one. Rental ships to France, Belgium, Italy and Switzerland.
Either way, you can cancel anytime at no cost, or pause the subscription, handy over winter storage.
What does the GeoRide subscription include?
The subscription covers everything that keeps the device alive: the multi-carrier network in more than 200 countries, 24/7 Theft Assistance (mainland France), Fall detection with automatic emergency call, real-time alerts on every channel and free lifetime updates for the app and the device alike.
In practice, the multi-carrier network picks the most reliable carrier for wherever your motorcycle happens to be. If you go down while riding, your loved ones are alerted automatically and, in France, emergency services are dispatched in under 2 minutes when you don't answer, even if your phone is off or smashed. And free lifetime updates mean your device picks up new features year after year, at no extra cost.
Buy the device and this subscription costs €5/month after a free first month; rent it and the subscription is already part of the monthly fee.
Which Live accessories take it further?
The Live range adds three smart accessories to your device: Live Alarm (€69), Live Detect (€59) and Live Wheel (€89 for the pair). All three are controlled from the GeoRide app.
Live Alarm is a patented 110 dB alarm, compatible with GeoRide 3 and 3s. It goes off automatically at the slightest unauthorized movement, or manually from the app wherever you are in the world, to deter thieves.
Live Detect warns you as soon as your garage or parking space door opens, before anyone has even laid a hand on the motorcycle. It fits in 30 seconds, runs completely wireless and can set off Live Alarm automatically if the door is opened without permission. You can pair up to 4 of them with one GeoRide 3s.
Live Wheel keeps an eye on your real-time tire pressure and temperature. The 2 sensors included screw on in 2 minutes in place of your valve caps and alert you instantly if you pick up a flat tire or your pressure runs low.
Why choose GeoRide over a basic GPS tracker?
Because a classic GPS tracking device sends one position every 5 minutes, while GeoRide sends up to 10 positions per second through corners, with accuracy down to under a meter thanks to Galileo. When the average theft takes 2 minutes 30, that responsiveness makes all the difference, as our comparison of motorcycle GPS trackers shows.
A real-time GPS tracker isn't only there to get a motorcycle back: it deters thieves in the first place. According to the 2026 GeoRide Motorcycle Theft Report for France, based on more than 4,600 users, in over half of all attempts the alert was enough: the motorcycle wasn't even moved.
51.7%
of theft attempts stopped in their tracks: the GeoRide alert was enough to deter the thief, with the motorcycle never even moved (2026 GeoRide Motorcycle Theft Report for France).
That's why more than 30,000 riders now ride protected by GeoRide. The point isn't to ride around on edge, quite the opposite: 95% of the time nothing happens to your motorcycle, and GeoRide keeps your mind at rest the whole time. And the day something does happen, the alert goes out straight away and theft assistance, available in France, takes over with the police.
What GeoRide adds on top
Buying a GeoRide isn't only about fitting a smart anti-theft system: you also get the most complete app on the market. Every ride is recorded automatically, with 3D ride replay, the weather display, riding stats and sharing with your loved ones, in real time or only in the event of a fall. The new app and Motonaut, the 100% motorcycle AI assistant, round it all off, and Motonaut is free for every rider.
And before you reach for your card, you can try the lot: the GeoRide app has a Demo mode, open to you even if you're not a customer. Enough to make up your mind before you place an order or walk into an official dealer.
FAQ
Can you fit GeoRide yourself?
Yes, you fit it yourself in 5 minutes: red wire to the battery "+", black wire to the "-", nothing else to connect. It has zero impact on your motorcycle's manufacturer warranty, and some dealers will fit it in store if you'd rather hand the job over.
Can you rent from a dealer?
No, renting works on georide.fr only. Official dealers sell the devices and the accessories, with advice and an in-store demo.
Does GeoRide work on a scooter or a vehicle with no battery?
Yes, GeoRide fits every type of vehicle: motorcycle, scooter, quad, car. For a vehicle with no battery or a small one (50cc scooter, dirt bike, electric bicycle), go for the GeoRide 3s: it takes 9 to 18 V and charges over USB.
I already own a GeoRide 3: do I have to buy a whole new device?
No, upgrading to the GeoRide 3s costs €29 on rental and €79 on purchase. The new device ships straight away, the old one goes back afterwards, and your account, your ride history and your settings all carry over, with no break in service.
Can you pause or cancel the subscription?
Yes, cancelling is free and both offers come with no commitment. You can also pause the subscription, over winter storage for example. On rental, you just send the device back; on purchase, there's nothing to return.
