Description:

The market for motorcycle navigator comes with new equipment from A-Rival TomTom and continue moving. Strengths and weaknesses of the discount Navis from the “U-300″ league in the compact comparison.


The A-rival PNX 35 M-Nav can above all by its rich endowment point. Motorcycle and car mount, connectivity to the 12-volt electrical system, Bluetooth connection to the supplied helmet headset. The instrument with European map set can either be in portrait or landscape mode can be used. In practice, annoying glare scanty, ill-use touch screen and lack of clarity. The voice instructions are sometimes distorted and transfer chops, also there is a lack of clear announcements. When the guidance is the weak point of precision and faster refresh on deviation from the planned routes.

Conclusion: The A-shine with a strong rival equipment package, but it shows weakness in the hard motorcycle everyday.

The TomTom Rider Urban is a stripped down version of the famous Rider2. Neither have on-board network connection, so the Urban Rider by battery operated must be ben-. This is enough for day trips, otherwise there is the famous motorcycle from Rider2 docking station with 12-volt connection as an extra (64.95 euros). Also present: a blue-tooth headset. In return, the Urban Rider can easily with Bluetooth helmets (including Schuberth, Nolan) network. The voice instructions are clear and precise, high contrast display, including “real-image-track assistant” always easy to read. The operation of the touch screen works very well in all test objectives were precisely controlled.

Conclusion: Navigator class road with great support and into biking oriented function.
