GeoRide, a motorcycle GPS tracker for adventure bikes
Protect my motorcycle with GeoRideA GPS tracker for an adventure bike has to do everything: keep watch over the motorcycle when parked, follow it in real time if it disappears, and go the distance on a road trip of several thousand kilometres. That is exactly the brief GeoRide was built for, a discreet unit fitted in 5 minutes under the seat of your GS, Ténéré or Africa Twin.
Key points
- The most targeted motorcycle in France is a road-going adventure bike: the Yamaha Tracer 9, top of the rankings in the 2026 GeoRide Motorcycle Theft Observatory (GeoRide's own study of motorcycle theft in France).
- True real-time tracking: up to 10 positions per second through corners, with accuracy down to less than a metre thanks to Galileo.
- Coverage in more than 200 countries across multiple networks: your adventure bike stays trackable to the end of the trail.
Why does your adventure bike need a GPS tracker?
Look at the ranking of the motorcycles targeted by thieves: it reads like the car park at an adventure bike rally. Tracer 9 and 9 GT in first place, R 1250 GS and GSA, Ténéré 700, Africa Twin, R 1300 GS, according to the 2026 GeoRide Motorcycle Theft Observatory. Recent machines, holding their value, easy to resell: 53% of the motorcycles targeted are worth between €6,000 and €15,000.
The trouble is that once the bike is loaded into a van, everything happens fast: after 48 hours, the chances of recovery are divided by 10. With no way of locating it, the national rate tops out at 24.3% (2025 Argos barometer, the French insurers' vehicle-theft body). A GPS tracker turns that around: you know where the motorcycle is while the police can still act. Where you put the unit matters too, and we show you where to hide a GPS tracker on your motorcycle.
What is GeoRide worth on a real motorcycle trip?
This is where the unit sets itself apart from a simple beacon. A conventional GPS beacon sends a position every 5 minutes; GeoRide goes up to 10 positions per second through corners, enough to draw every hairpin of a mountain pass faithfully. The multi-network system automatically picks the most reliable operator in the area, in more than 200 countries: your motorcycle stays "Protected by GeoRide" in Norway as much as in Morocco.
And the trip can be relived when you get home: automatic ride capture, 3D replay, synchronised weather, elevation gain, towns crossed, with nothing to start before you set off. GPX export even lets you share the track or load it into a navigation GPS to ride it again. For off-road outings, off-road mode stops the everyday tumbles of the discipline from calling out the emergency services: only genuine danger does that, and sharing with family and friends stays active.
And day to day, how does it protect the bike?
At the slightest contact, an alert goes to your phone: vibration, movement, leaving a zone, power disconnected. That responsiveness pays off: in 51.7% of the attempts measured by the 2026 Observatory, the alert was enough and the motorcycle never left its spot. If it does go anyway, after-theft Assistance, included and available 24/7 in mainland France, calls you back in under 5 minutes and coordinates the tracking with the police.

Frequently asked questions
Does the GPS tracker work abroad during a road trip on an adventure bike?
Yes, tracking and alerts work in more than 200 countries thanks to the multi-network system, which automatically switches to the most reliable operator in the area. After-theft Assistance covers mainland France; abroad, you still have the motorcycle's real-time position.
What happens if I crash in the middle of nowhere?
If you crash while riding, GeoRide detects the impact and, if you do not respond, automatically calls the emergency services in under 2 minutes in mainland France, even with a broken or switched-off phone. When riding off road, turn on off-road mode: the everyday tumbles of the discipline alert nobody, and only real danger calls out help.
