Our customers say…
Customers have praised the TomTom Rider 550 as a solid and well-constructed GPS device. Many noted its ease of setup, clear directions, and useful features like automatic updates and winding route options. Despite these positives, some users experienced issues with Bluetooth connectivity, particularly with Apple devices, and found the mobile app lacking. The premium model, which includes extra mounts, was highlighted as good value. Overall, while some found setup challenging, most believe the device enhances navigational reliability, especially for motorcycle use.

All good so far

Purchsed to replace damaged Garmin. Leaps and bounds more advanced but it is a much newer model.
Setup and updates a breeze, especially with the wireless conection, good clear screen. I bought the premium pack which includes a lot of extra bits inc. the anti theft attachment. Deffo worth the extra.
All good so far.

Great Piece of Kit
11 February 2024 by Mohammed K
Was looking for a sat nav for a Ural and this one got some good reviews and was on offer. Easy to install, updates automatically and the premium model includes extra mounts which if bought individually would cost a lot more. You can also use it in the car if required. Ordered Friday arrived Sunday. Great service. I would recommend the premium model as well, worth the extra money for extra mounts

A good piece of kit

This is my first bike specific GPS, previously I used a car sat nav in a waterproof case. This is the first TomTom sat nav that I have bought and the first thing that struck me was how solid and well made the TomTom was.
I am over 60 and believe that if you need to follow an instruction book to work a gadget and it's software then it's unnecessarily complicated. I am pleased to say I set up the TomTom, connected it my Sena SRL2 and used it without any problem and no instruction book. I haven't put the waterproofing to test yet but so far I am very pleased with my purchase and would certainly recommend it.

I mounted this Tomtom satnav onto a Triumph Tiger Sport 660 using an Evotech mounting, really pleased with the result. The premium pack also comes with the car mount and anti theft device, overall it's very good value for money, great service from Sportsbikeshop again, many thanks.

Really pleased with the product excellent bit of kit, changed from a garmin. Delivery was really quick. Definitely recommend sportsbikeshop. Satnav is very easy to use with some cracking features and can be used with gloves.

Quality Satnav

Been using TomTom in the car and bike since the first one.
This does everything it needs to do and a lot more.
Only have it a few weeks, so there will be more tricks to learn.
Happy with it

Tomtom 550 premium
07 October 2023 by Philip E
Haven't had it long but changed from a Garmin Zumo 390 I never got on with it , I've always had Tom Tom in the passed they just seem to be more user friendly, the Tom Tom my ride app and software so easy to set up routes compared to the Garmin base camp ( which you need a doctorate in computers to use) , ther tom tom can link to your phone to download pre planned gpx files straight to the device really easy to send routes to your fellow riders, hooks to the cardo , just does everything so easy, only used it for one 300 mile Trip and I wouldn't go back to a Garmin, the build quality is really nice and it clips into the dock with a nice fit, didn't use the ram handle bar mount as I have a specific mount kit for my bike so the lock kit doesn't fit Which is disappointing as that was one of the features Io went for the premium over the standard, the car kit will come in handy tho, very pleased with the nav kit !

Great service as always from Sportsbikeshop.
Arrived on time and well packaged.
Good product easy to use new wifi updates are easy to download and install very user friendly without too much faffing about which is a boon for a old fart like me.
Paired with my phone and headset seamlessly.
Have bought a spare cable and have wired both bikes for it now.

Rider 550 "premium" overpriced
07 July 2023 by Anonymous
It's expensive so I didn't expect the TERRIBLE paint job to the RAM mount. I've not bothered syncing the TomTom to my phone. I like that you can select twisty routes. Sun reflects off screen. Does the job.

Usual high quality from Tom Tom. Easy to use and new WiFi updates is a boost after previous models which had to be connected to a computer.

A very useful bit of kit for your bike. Good definition on the screen, ok to operate with gloves on, packed with some very useful features (twisty route finder; nearest petrol station; points of interest; etc). YouTube vidoes help in learning how to wire it to your bike.

SatNav winner
26 May 2023 by Richard S
Spent the last two tears using my phone for navigation but was always concerned about water ingress during heavy downpours so opted to move back to a dedicated SatNav. Considered the various offerings from Garmin (particularly the Zumo XT) but read just too many threads about Base Camp difficulties. SBS delivered the Rider550 at a good price and with their characteristic 10/10 efficiency. The 550 was easy to set up and link to MyDrive and to phone bluetooth and the transfer of GPX files to the from MyDrive to the 550 is child splay. Had a bit of difficulty importing GPX files that were waypoints only rather than a 'track' but solved that through AllTrails route converter. Rider 550 is solid, responsive and offers good routing options. Rider550 is to bike navigation what Brill cream is to a bouffant!

I bought this to replace me BMW nav6 (which is a Garmin unit) and frankly very disappointing especially when you think if how much they cost!. This TomTom unit is superior in pretty much every aspect. I bought an adapter so it can be mounted directly onto the original BMW mount so no need to wire it in separately. I'm very pleased with it and only wish I'd bought this instead of the BMW unit in the first place. And as usual fantastic service from the team at sportsbikeshop with competitive prices and next day delivery. Very happy.

    Questions and Answers

    Questions and Answers

    • I have a 2019 Multistrada 1260s, and I have a Ducati sat nav bracket fitted behind the screen above the dash. Will the Tomtom 550 fit this bracket, and can I plug it into the 12v socket on my dash. Thanks Paul

      March 26, 2019

      The RAM Mount included with this Sat-Nav is suitable for bars/brackets with a diameter of 0.5" - 1.25". The TomTom Rider series must be installed in the cradle provided and powered from the motorcycle battery. The accessory ports installed on modern motorcycles are not powerful enough to keep the device operating correctly.

    • I have a 2018 Kawasaki Z1000SX Tourer - does the sat nav fit to the provided Kawasaki mount? Thanks.

      February 25, 2019

      The TomTom will fit the Kawasaki sat nav mount.

    • Does this come with the hard wiring kit to wire straight to my motorbike?

      September 28, 2018

      The box contains a motorcycle mount, Ram mount, USB cable and a power cable. The power cable can be connected to the battery, or can be wired into your bikes loom (although we would suggest that a professional does this)

    • Will I be able to import routes from alternative sources, e.g. Routes provided by Motorcycle Touring Holiday Company ? or from website such as BestBikingRoads.com ? As I used to be able to do with my old Rider V5 and with the earlier V2.

      August 16, 2018

      We can confirm that you are still able to transfer routes from your laptop/PC to your 550 device.

    • Unit comes supplied with Europe Maps. I live in Hong Kong and most of my use will be in HK and/or Asia Pacific. How do I create an account to allow free download of Asia Maps?

      August 9, 2018

    • is there a slot for a SD card on this

      July 11, 2018

    • Just wondering if this comes with the onboard dock charger to charge with the motorbike battery? also does the Rider 550 World (Non-Premium) come with the charger dock too?? Thanks

      May 29, 2018

      A motorcycle mount and car mount are included with the premium. The World includes the motorcycle mount but no car mount.
