RIDER offers an on-bike drive mode with 4 large icons and only essential functionalities. And with clear spoken instructions you are able to keep your eyes on the road. It also doubles as a hands-free bike kit via Bluetooth® technology so you can take calls via your touchscreen as you ride. For safety reasons outgoing calls are blocked while the bike is moving. But when you accept an incoming call it’s automatically routed to your earpiece/pad. And to make a call just pull over tap the screen and talk. With your helmet and gloves still on! With the totally secure motorbike docking your RIDER attaches with an audible 'click’ so you know it’s firmly in place. And the dock itself is fixed to your bike with robust universal mounting hardware from RAM who make mounting kits that are tough enough for real biking conditions.
