The latest TomTom RIDER 400 is unveiled
Article by: Darren Griffin
Date: 21 Jan 2015
It's been a while coming but at long last we can now see the latest in the line of TomTom RIDER models.
Although full details have not been released, the new TomTom RIDER now allows usage in portrait and landscape modes and has a new feature that allows trip planning with the RIDER suggesting optimum motorcycle friendly routes. PC based route planning is also available along with GPX format track uploads
Along with the new portrait mode comes a new mount that supports use in both orientations as well as Bluetooth audio for helmet headsets.
Corinne Vigreux, co-founder and managing director, TomTom Consumer said, “we have designed TomTom RIDER to give bikers more ways to create and discover exciting routes. From the freedom of cruising the open road, to the thrill of leaning into the tightest curve on the highest peak, with RIDER, bikers can create and ride their own perfect adventure.”

Wish my GO 750 could do what the bike satnavs can do - I've today read an article in RIDE magazine of several bike satnavs. They are a bit more expensive though.

No sun visor on new model?

It's one of TomTom's 'bright' ideas

Great comments guys! - but I use my One XL on my bike and the screen is sometimes not that visible. One of my mates has a Rider and the visor does improve things. I've thought about fabricating one but not got around to it.

More importantly that the sun visor on the previous model can anyone tell me if or how I can install Pocketgpsworld on my Rider 400? It seems that TomTom is trying to make it as hard as possible to use 3rd party software and I prefer the spoken camera warnings as opposed to the alarm.
