Will this mount work with TomTom 550 ?

This mount will work with the 550 units no problem at all.

Will this work with a Rider 40?

This is compatible with the Rider 40.

Will this unit work with tom tom rider 500

This will work, the Rider 400 and Rider 500 use the same mount.

The picture shows 4 pin contacts? My 410 unit bought off you has 2 pin contacts as does the satnav. Is this unit only for the 400? Is there similar for the 410

This is an old image and the new product will have 2 pins. Nevertheless, this mount is suitable for all 2 pin and 4 pin modern TomTom Riders.

Replacement mount

24 July 2023 by Graham V

Bought this to replace the original from my Rider 450. The original mount which I've had for about 4 years cracked along the mounting point/release lever. Unfortunately you can only buy a whole new mount. I nearly bought just the mount and not the RAM part but read that meant you had to re-use the old screws/mounting plate, so for the sake of £3 difference got the whole lot so I have a spare ram mount/plate/screws.
The one plus point in all this is that original had been stiff/tight when putting the unit onto the mount. I did question this when I bought the Rider 450 and was told this was normal. This meant that it was difficult and required some wiggling to get the unit on/off the mount and a bit more force than I'd have liked. This new mount fits the unit perfectly. Not tight at all and just slides on nicely with a click. So if there is one benefit for having to spend £50 it's that it fits better, although this is luck of the draw I'm guessing.

Replacement Tomtom Rider Dock

30 March 2023 by William F

Bought to replace the original, which jammed the satnav and then snapped the release lever. Obviously does the job designed for and seems good quality. Hoping it lasts longer than the original! Also more careful now when putting on the Tomtom and removing it from the dock.

Useful Spare Mount

22 March 2023 by Steve M

I bought this so I could easily move the Tomtom 550 between bikes. The kit comes with necessary mounts and was easy to fit to a K1600GT / aux feed. Mountings and harness all seem to be good quality. So far so good, works as well as the original.

Cautionary Tale

18 December 2022 by Philip A

Bought this as I thought my existing unit had failed, read about pin problems and could not find any volts with a multimeter at pins so assumed unit had failed
Bought new unit which is just fine but still no joy
Checked accessory fuse and found it had blown, still now have unit for my other bike
Every cloud etc etc

Nothing has changed.

06 November 2022 by Jason G

Total number of these mounts that I have had now is 4.
On the first unit, the base snapped along the rotating joint. TomTom replaced this without any problems.
With the other units, the problem comes down to power. The contact pins are a weak point on the unit.
If like me you remove your Satnav when not in use, then you are exercising the springs each time. eventually the contact starts to weaken. Also watch out for water ingress into the contact area. Even by taking the precaution of covering the mount when washing, you will still get damp in there.
It is an unfortunate fact that the SatNav units, 450 and 550 are excellent units. Going by the horror stories I have heard; the grass isn't any greener on the Garmin side of things either.

Excellent

Does What It's Supposed To Do

23 May 2022 by Adam S

Bought this to replace the original mount on my Rider 400, that had finally given up after seven years of all year round use.

The replacement works just as well and was exactly the same to fit as original.

Best price I found anywhere on SBS, including TomTom direct.

Bonus, this comes with another RAM mount and small arm so I have a spare too!

Excellent service as always from SBS.

Second one

05 April 2022 by Anonymous

Like other reviews I have purchased another mount in order to put on my second bike. Great little kit that works well and allows the TomTom Rider to be connected quickly and easily. Although this states for Rider 400, this was purchased for my Rider 550 and works a treat.

In addition to this mount I ordered the RAM pinlock knob and didn't need the Rider full antitheft kit because I remove the GPS when I leave the bike.

It is expensive, however the quality is there and it works as it should.

TomTom kit

24 January 2020 by Mark W

Extra set up for second bike, it is what it is. TomTom kit is pricey but with the RAM mount bits and a good SBS discount wasn't too bad.
SBS excellent service with the return as the first was missing fixings from the sealed RAM packaging. SBS no quibble returns , again 10/10 SBS.

Good - Didn't Need the Mount

15 December 2018 by Peter H

At RRP of £80 it's average, but reduced it's reasonably good value. It's a shame that you can't just buy the TomTom part, as I didn't need the RAM mount.
