The Tom Tom Rider 2nd Edition is a fine GPS navigator. What accessories does it have?

We’ve looked at the Tom Tom Rider 2 motorcycle GPS system, one of the best motorcycle GPS navigation systems available in the world. Specifically designed for motorbikes, easy to use, simple navigating and lots of GPS features.

But like all these things there are always accessories that you can use and if you have a Tom Tom Rider or someone else you know has a Rider then accessories are a great idea to add value to your GPS or as a gift idea. Note that some of these Rider accessories may come with the unit that you have purchased already, so check the box first!

A car charger is always useful. Like most of us you probably drive as well as ride, and so you want to use your GPS Tom Tom in the car as well, and if you’ve got a car charger then you can use it, and charge it, in the car.

And of course if you’re using it in the car you need a car mount for mounting your Rider in the car. Tom Tom advise anyone thinking of buying a Rider car mount to check the back of their Rider GPS unit to see if it is compatible with the mount, so you should do that.

And why not a 12V cable to attach your Tom Tom Rider to your motorbikes battery? A much better solution than relying on the Lithium battery for the Rider, which probably won’t last much past 4 or 5 hours.

Or how about an additional bluetooth headset for your Rider?

Tom Tom don’t do as many optional accessories for their TomTom Rider GPS systems compared with Garmin. Does this mean that they think it’s so good that it doesn’t need much else?

So if you’re looking for a great motorcycle GPS navigator then the Tom Tom Rider 2 will do it, and once you’re set and wired there’s still a few optional extras that you can opt for if you wish.
