TomTom Rider 2 GPS Navigator for Motorcycles and Scooters Reviews
| 68 of 72 people found the following review helpful:  An excellent GPS for bike or car, This review is from: TomTom Rider 2 GPS Navigator for Motorcycles and Scooters (Electronics) I received this unit for Christmas primarily for my bike, but once I purchase the car mount adapter it will be used in the car as well. This is an excellent unit, to say the least. One reviewer mentioned that it's too difficult to turn the unit on- I say "hogwash". The pushbutton is stiff, yes, but that's done to keep the unit from turning on accidentally while in your jacket pocket or carry bag (and with a touch screen, you can well imagine how much mischief one could accidentally create if it turned on without your knowledge). Ditto with the Scala Rider headset- you don't want the thing accidentally turning on, running the battery down, do you? Another reviewer mentioned that it doesn't have a "speedometer" or trip meter function- it most certainly does have a speedometer, and what I assume is the "trip meter"- but since TomTom set the unit from the factory to eliminate as much extraneous information as possible, you have to activate it in the menus...

She's a doll and I love her very much, but she was not very versed about what to shop for or expect from a GPS unit. I've now used the unit several hours during trips, utilizing the blue tooth connectivity with my cell phone and the included headset within my helmet. Ive also used it in the car a lot. They said this unit was designed by motorcyclists, but obviously the bikers TomTom consulted knew very little about the minimum expectations for features required in a decent GPS unit...especially one costing this much. I am going to break-down my review into two parts....what it has that is good...and what it lacks that makes it a non-competitive GPS unit in the US. I've used GPS technology at work and at play for years. Most of my background with consumer-grade GPS units is with the Garmin brand. So it is to that brand that I will make most of my comparisons because Garmin, for the most part, has it right and does it right...

I have owned a Rider for more than 18 months. 2. The first one I had, the dock broke in Texas while I was riding Route 66. 3. I called TomTom from Texas (I live in Calif) and asked them to FedEx a new one. They said no can do. 4. Once home, TomTom sent me a new Dock, but... it took them 1 month to get it to me. 5. After a while I started to notice that the Rider was not charging while in the dock and on my bike. 6. They asked me to send them my Rider back with all the accessories. 7. Then after 4 weeks, they sent me a new Rider, with no charger and no accessories. 8. The asked me to send it back. 8. After another 4 weeks, they sent me another.... new Rider... with all the accessories. 9. The dock didn't charge. 10. After another week, they sent me a new dock. It works. There are known issues with the docks and charging, but TomTom won't admit it. It's manufacturering issue. I'll let... Read more |
