Anyone own a TomTom Rider? If so.

What generation do you own, and is it easy to see in the sun?

[Bighead]

I just use my car model and a mount guys.com mount (waterproof)

Bighead, Thanks for the reply. I have been doing the same as you for the past few years. Last week in Myrtle Beach my TomTom 720 stopped working. The plug in the unit broke and it could no longer take a charge. Since I needed a new one anyway, I figured I would go with one made for motorcycles. I just bought a TomTom rider from Amazon about an hour ago.

When you get her give us a full report two years ago I was screaming up the Hiway when the Tom Tom I had then got pissed off at me and committed suicide at 85 mph jumped out of the mount and crashed on the Hiway pulled over at the next exit and my buddy was  :2funny:his arse off

Will do.

Rode 175 miles today in bright sunshine. I`ll give the TomTom Rider, one and three quarters thumbs up. It worked great. Easy to read and understand the functions. I deducted one quarter thumb, because when the sun hits it just right, it does wash out the screen. However, as soon as you make a turn in the road or go into the shade you can see it again. It is heads and shoulders above the automobile TomTom I used on the Valk for the past few years, as far as being able to see the screen. I bought a Bluetooth adaptor, so I could hear the directions in my helmet speakers. That also worked well. I think I will be very happy with my purchase, as long as the performance remains the same as today.

Good to hear where or who did you purchase it from?

[Motorider]

I bought it from Amazon. However two days after I made my purchase it was listed for $10.00 less then I paid. I don`t know why Amazon prices jump around, but they do. I paid $359 out the door.

At $359 I think I will stick with my $89 car model especially now with my job taking a dump.
