Imagine: a perfect summer’s day. The open road awaits. Do you fancy a pre-programmed favourite tour or maybe a new challenge? Simply choose your route, run through it before you leave, build in a few stops and you’re away. Alternatively, just pick a destination and RIDE. Because with RIDER you really can find your way the easy way. Not only have you got the latest and most complete maps for true door-to-door navigation throughout the whole of the UK and Ireland (Order Code A95HF) or Western Europe (Order Code A96HF) on a single SD card. You decide how you want to get there - the quickest route? the shortest? avoiding motorways? Or why not enjoy one of the free, biker-friendly scenic routes? Wherever you go and however you decide to get there, your compact and portable RIDER is easy to take with you. Navigating by bike is different. Which is why RIDER has been designed solely with the biker in mind. Not just a glove-friendly touchscreen, but a rugged, waterproof finish that handles even the toughest weather. Not just a secure and easy-to-mount dock, but the dock itself is fixed to your bike with robust universal RAM mounting hardware. And not just TomTom’s award-winning navigation software, but high quality in-helmet voice instructions delivered through a Cardo scala-rider® Bluetooth® headset. All straight out of the box. RIDER really offers the easiest, most relaxed possible biking experience. From the moment you straddle your engine, you understand why bikers prefer RIDER’s straightforward style. You just plug it in, switch it on & RIDE. You’ve got a choice of 3D or 2D maps on a smooth-scrolling display. The crystal clear, glove-friendly, anti-glare touchscreen even has a sun visor to ensure an optimal view at all times. You will receive clear spoken instructions in your preferred language to your destination, but if you decide to take a quick detour, your RIDER immediately recalculates and adjusts its route description. It’s not easy to make something so smart, so simple. But as every biker knows, it’s the simplicity of life on two wheels that makes it so special. RIDER offers an on-bike drive mode, with 4 large icons and only essential functionalities. And with clear spoken instructions, you are able to keep your eyes on the road. It also doubles as a hands-free bike kit via Bluetooth® technology so you can take calls via your touchscreen as you ride. For safety reasons, outgoing calls are blocked while the bike is moving. But when you accept an incoming call, it’s automatically routed to your earpiece/pad. And to make a call, just pull over, tap the screen and talk. With your helmet and gloves still on! With the totally secure motorbike docking, your RIDER attaches with an audible ‘click’ so you know it’s firmly in place. And the dock itself is fixed to your bike with robust universal mounting hardware from RAM, who make mounting kits that are tough enough for real biking conditions. With an optional alternative RAM mount, you can switch your RIDER from bike to bike or bike to scooter. Or how about a Cardo scala-rider® TeamSet headset with intercom capabilities, so you can talk easily with your passenger on the road?
