Optimized functionalities for motorbikes
It's too bad Waze doesn't offer any of these functionalities for riders/bikers:
- deactivate traffic jams in the time calculation (or consider we are at around 50 km/h on these parts of the path)
- proposing winding/twisting roads with different levels, just like Tomtom and Garmin already do with their devices
- allowing to create more than one step point to get the perfect itinerary
- allowing the load of external files (such as .gpx for example) to create roadbooks on our computer (with Google Maps or else) and then send it to our smartphone.
In brief, just a few things that would make Waze the perfect companion for motorcyclists, which is far from the case nowadays!

Thanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

i would love gpx support and proposing different roads on bike, liberty rider is awesome for this but don't have the speed radar detection of waze

I am missing GPX import so much in Waze, especially for motorcycle group rides... Looking forward, as I am not interested in navigation alternatives.

Why are you avoiding to implement gpx waypoints/routes ?
Sorry I have no understanding for that decision! -

I 100 percent agree with the above proposed statement.
I have used a lot of different apps and nav devices - Garmin, TomTom Rider, Google Maps, BeeLine the list is significant. I love how waze works but this is rather irritating.
Multi point nav should be easy enough - google maps has it but it just sucks for navigation.
I wouldn't mind say creating a route I want in google maps and being able to import it - I would accept that.
In the Car however Waze for my needs are spot on

GPX import would be awesome, or at least more than 1 intermediate point...

Also add an option to turn off automatic route optimization ("Route X is faster - CHANGING!"). When riding a bike, we may **manually select** a route for our enjoyment, not because we're in a hurry.

Curvy road is a next level feature and that's why I don't use waze as my main GPS. I highly recommand this.

Not an idea, something missing. How can i easily download the travels, route i have done? The only option about this, is to send them to waze. Dont you think that's a bit rude?

Waze developers. You never dříve motocycle? Why we can select motocycle if we have not possibility to predefine exact route? Gpx imort is missing for couple of years. There is no reason to use waze for US.

Goddammit, Waze. Just make GPX file upload possible already!!! :))
This would immediately blow up your motorcyclist's user numbers.

I would like to load a GPX file with a geocache or POI onto waze. Then I can select the points as destinations or I can see where they are when I drive past.
