Additionally, bikers now have access to dedicated trip statistics that can make any road trip much simpler. The feature allows the biker to view the average and maximum speeds at which he or she traveled per journey, the distance from home, and the total miles traveled.

Even if you’ve previously purchased the RIDER device in one of its earlier incarnations, you can still benefit immensely from the updated software features - and software may be updated for free using TomTom HOME. Completely new maps are available with TomTom HOME as well. If a new map is purchased - along with a 2 GB DB card (which must be bought separately) - users will then also be able to easily take advantage of TomTom Map Share.

TomTom also offers a map guarantee. The guarantee states that if any new map is released within thirty days of the time the GPS user begins using his or her device, then it may be downloaded for free.

The new enhanced RIDER 2nd Edition comes already equipped with the newest Tele Atlas maps of North America as well. Comprehensive maps of both Canada and the United States make up the set.

With the advent of the RIDER software, motorcycle aficionados can now enjoy the same inventive features that users of the automobile products have enjoyed for some time. Best of all, it’s just in time for summer - prime motorcycle season.

As for the size of the bike you are going to ride it not carry it. With the motor off as long as you can comfortably push the bike about on level ground and handle the weight on and off the
stands the size does not matter. I have ridden many bikes at 1000 pounds and I am also 5-7. It is easer to learn on a small bike and caused less damage when you drop it. On the road a heaver
bike is more stable and once rolling and the feet are up the weight is all balanced.

You should however have an inseam number larger than the seat height number to be comfortable and this is an advantage with the Virago and most cruisers. I have had to tip toe many tall bikes over the years and this would not be good for a new rider. Heavy boots can help but there is a lot to be said for having a machine that fits you. Go set on the bikes/scooter you like and see what feels right.
